It’s Family Time~ 2nd Great Grand Uncle John Wiley Huneycut

My 2^nd Great Grand Uncle John Wiley Huneycut and his wife Betsy Love has been a very elusive couple. Thus, I have documented very little information about their lives at this point in time. 
 
John Wiley Huneycutt was born on 16 Jan 1823 in Montgomery County, North Carolina a son of Marcus I. Huneycutt and his wife Charity Dry. John Wiley was their first born child. ¹
 
John Wiley married Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Love on 22 December 1840.² John and Betsy can be found in the 1850 census for Stanly County and the 1870 Census for Union County, North Carolina. I have not found them in any other census. ^{3 4}
 

John Wiley Huneycutt and Elizabeth Love had the following children:
 
i. James Riley Huneycutt, born 11 Jan 1841, Stanly County, North Carolina; married Martha Elizabeth Speight, 1866; died 5 Jan 1915, Kannapolis, Cabarrus, North Carolina.

v. Tobias A. "Tobie" Huneycutt, born 5 Oct 1852, Stanly County, North Carolina; married Joannah S. Douglas, 1877; died 5 Apr 1930, Center, Stanly, North Carolina.
