Hi , I live in Australia and was hoping someone could do a birth lookup in Boston for me.I'm looking for the birth of James Magnus Hunter born Boston 1856.His parents were James Hunter and Mary Morrison.Mary Morrison was born in Scotland her husband James Hunter ( ? born Scotland ) according to family history was a sea captain ,who was lost or died at sea.The story goes that Mary's husband had a brother in Boston,Mary went on a trip with James and because she was heavely pregnant she stayed in Boston while he continued the trip,he didn't return .Mary had the baby in Boston and returned to Scotland ,Mary and son James came to Australia about 1882 . .Cannot find any info on Mary's husband James ,so hoping if I can get his son's birth info it may give me some clues.Thanks . Carolyn.
