John Allen Huneycutt was born on 19 Jan 1864 in Stanly County, North Carolina. He was the only son of James W. Huneycutt and Sarah Elizabeth Page Huneycutt. James Allen Huneycutt had 4 siblings. Between 1870 and 1880, James Allen parents moved their family of 5 children from Stanly County, North Carolina to Chesterfield County, South Carolina, a distance of about 46 miles south of their present home.
Both James Allen and his Father James W. were farmers. The 1900 census shows that James Allen married a young lady by the name of Lizzie, which is most likely Elizabeth, in 1892.
1910 CENSUS: Cole Hill, Chesterfield County, South Carolina; Roll: T624_1455; Enumeration District: 0034; FHL microfilm: 1375468; Page: 2A/85(stamped); Line 04, Dwelling 24, Family 24; Allen HUNNEYCUTT, male, age 44, born in NC; parents born in NC; Lizzie HUNNEYCUTT, wife, age 38, born in NC; parents born in NC; married 18 years, 1 child, not living. Does not own his farm, rents.
Note: After many years of research I have not found Lizzie's maiden name. There doesn’t seem to be a Death Certificate for her; but, her tombstone shows that she died 18 December 1944.
James Allen and Lizzie had two children; one died young, a daughter Azalee, age 10, is listed in the 1920 census. But, in 1930, this daughter is shown as adopted.
