- Rolfe Hunt was born February, 8, 1865, at Liberty Hill, Georgia. Liberty Hill was at that time in Pike County, in the part that was later put into the newly formed Lamar County.
His father, Francis Marion Hunt, M.D., was at the time of Rolfe's birth serving in a hospital at Atlanta during the War between the States, and reached home to make the acquaintance of his first-born the following April.
His grandfather was Rev. John Poleman Hunt, M.D., born and reared in Georgia. Back of him were John and Turner Hunt, who went from Virginia into North Carolina, thence into Georgia in 1797. The father of Turner Hunt is said to have been Captain Jonathan Hunt. Jonathan and Turner are said to have served in the War of the Revolution; other ancestors in that war were Joseph Anthony, Thomas Stovall, and Captain Thomas Cooper.
Mother to Rolfe was Frances Caroline Bloodworth, whose father, T.S.M. Bloodworth, was the son of the Reverend Thomas Bloodworth, a Baptist preacher, son of John Bloodworth, sone of Sir Thomas Bloodworth, of London, England. The maternal grandmother was Frances Caroline Maxey, whoe mother was a McLendon. The paternal grandmother was Martha Ann Gaar, daughter of the Reverend Michael Daniel Gaar, Baptist preacher, who was buried under the pulpit of the Rocky Creek Baptist Church in Monroe County, Georgia.
John Poleman Hunt was a minister and a doctor. He and Martha had 15 children, roughly spaced at 2-year intervals. He outlived 2 wives and had another 5 children by the last 2 wives. At least one of his sons died in Virginia serving in the Confederate Army.
