General Notes: Husband - Capt. James McCune


While a youth he learned the tanner's trade which he followed for some time. Discontinuing this line of work, he became a stock dealer. Later on he engaged in mercantile pursuits at Harlansburg, Pennsylvania, a line he followed up to 1862, when he enlisted in Co. B, 134th Reg. Pa. Vol. Inf. Of this company he was captain. From exposure and hardships to which he was subjected while on a forced march from Washington to the scene of the Second Battle of Bull Run, and thence to the field of Antietam, he contracted a severe fever. He was a large and fleshy man, so that weakened by severe heat, the disease obtained a hold on him that he could not shake off. He died in the hospital, and his body was brought home and interred in the Plain Grove Cemetery.


General Notes: Wife - Hannah Jane Adams


She was born in 1827. [BOBLC, 527]
