General Notes: Husband - Thomas Tilbrook McCune
He lived at home and attended the public schools until his twentieth year, when he went to his maternal grandfather, Thomas Tillbrook, and lived with him for three years. Shortly after his marriage, which occurred in 1874, he located on a farm near the Hermanic coal mines, then the property of his mother, and engaged in agricultural pursuits for seven years. In 1882 he rented a farm of his father and mother, farming as a renter until 1888, when he purchased it from them. This farm was the homestead of Thomas Tillbrook. In connection with his farming he dealt extensively in horses and mules, buying at the various markets. In politics his sympathies were Republican, but he never actively engaged in political issues.
