General Notes: Husband - J. L. Kunkle

Greensburg, Westmoreland Co, PA

He and his wife had four children.

The common schools of his native county afforded him the means of obtaining a good education, he completing his studies therein at the age of nineteen years. For seventeen years therafter he assisted with the work on his father's farm and also imported draught horses, realizing there-from a goodly profit. Later he was the owner of the farm in North Huntingdon township, on which his mother was born and resided during her lifetime. After abandoning the business of buying and selling horses, he leased the Hotel Stark and conducted it successfully for twelve years, after which, about 1905, he leased the house which was formerly the property of Dr. H. G. Lomison, which became known as the Kunkle Hotel. Mr. Kunkle cast his vote with the Democratic party.
