SECOND MARRIAGE:

On page 89 in Book 4 of the Madison Co., Alabama Marriage Records (image 49/678 at familysearch.org), the groom's name is clearly Levi Hynds although in some indexes it is 'Hyrd' or bizarrely 'Hyridy'. The bride's name is Ann A. Hunt. Her dates in Find-a-Grave Memorial # 66049085 are 2 Mar 1804 and 7 Aug 1853, and she is Ann Hunt Knox Hinds. She was almost 29 when she married Levi. It is plausible that her maiden name was Knox and that in 1833 she was a widow whose first husband was a man with surname Hunt. Find-a-Grave does not offer any evidence.

In Find-a-Grave Memorial # 66048740 the dates for Levi's daughter Elizabeth Ann "Eliza" Hinds Brazelton are 1 Aug 1834 and 22 Mar 1920. If her birth date is correct, then her mother was Levi's second wife Ann Hunt. The "Alabama, U.S., Deaths and Burials Index, 1881-1974" at Ancestry.com says that she died 22 Mar 1920 at age 86 in Huntsville, Madison Co., Alabama. The 1900 census says that she was born in August 1834.
