With Mothers Day approaching I thought that I would send some information on a maternal line in memory of the mothers of the Flynt family. Perry Flynt son of John and Catherine Flynt married December 29, 1706 (FHL975.664 V25u) Martha Halbert.
Martha Halbert was the daughter of John Halbert and Margaret Hampton. John Halbert Sr. born Abt 1741 in Caroline County Virginia was the first child of Joel Halbert Sr. and Elizabeth Francis Jones. John Halbert enlisted March 1, 1777 in the Virginia Regt. and was last on the rolls dated April 6, 1778 at Valley Forge, Pa. He moved to Tennessee possibly about 1811and died about 1820 in Lincoln County Tennessee. Margaret Hampton was the daughter of James Hampton. In James Hampton's will (FHLF#1579656) he not only mentions his daughter Margaret Halbert, but land adjoining Thos. Flynt and witnesses Martin Flynt and Hasten Flynt.
Joel Halbert Sr. was son of William Halbert and Mary the widow of Thomas Wood (Essex County Virginia Will Book 6 for Wm. Halbert and Mary Taylor and Deeds and Wills No. 13 for administration of estate of Thomas Wood). William was married before February 10, 1709 and was dead before October 18, 1718. Mary remarried to William Taylor. Joel Halbert Sr.'s wife Francis Jones is reported by Boddie in Historical Families Vol IX pp.193-4 to be the daughter of John Jones and Frances Randolph, however, I have located no proof.
Margaret Hampton's father James Hampton is possibly the James Hampton that is the son of John Hampton Jr. and Margaret Wade. John Hampton Jr.'s line goes back through William Hampton into England.
[NI0305] Calvin Tarpley Flynt died of a gun shot would in New Orleans during the Civil War. On the 8th of March 1864, his wife Mary Wilson Flynt had given birth to a new son, Named for his father Calvin T. Flynt. The child lived 13 days and died on 21 March 1864. On the 30th of April 1864, Mary age 25, who was living in Hopkinsville, Gonzales County, Texas died leaving two sons Joe Halbert Flynt, age 7 and John M. Flynt, age 4. On the 23rd of May 1864, Calvin Tarpley was killed. Oney Percilla Flynt, sister to Calvin Tarpley, and her husband Dr. Milam Howell of Belmont, Gonzales County, Texas, did not have children and they took the orphan sons and reared them to manhood.
[NI0919] This could be Catherine Perry or some other Catherine/Katerine.
Catherine's maiden name may have been "Meredith" but that cannot be proven. If one examines the sequence of the naming of John's and Catherine's children, the pattern commonly used in those days would lead to the mother's maiden name of Meredith.

In the name of God Amen, I Perry Flynt of the County of Madison and State of Alabama, do make and declare this my last will Testament in manner and form following.
