General Notes: Husband - Benjamin Cunningham
He succeeded to the ownership of the family land, which he had helped to clear, and besides purchased an adjacent piece that contained 170 acres. He put up a log-house, and after his farm was cleared, he discovered that the clay banks on his place could be suitably worked into good brick; so he manufactured a large quantity, and built a comfortable brick farm-house, later the residence of J. P. Cunningham.
He and his wife had eight children; six sons and two daughters, of whom only three, two sons and one daughter, were living in 1877.
