DAVID McCUNE, retired farmer, P. O. Plain City, is a brother of Dr. John E. McCune, and was born in this county August 20, 1824. He was reared on a farm and received a limited education. In 1847, he married Harriett Kent, a native of Union County, and a daughter of Daniel Kent, a soldier of 1812. In 1861, Mr. McCune enlisted in the army, and served for the full term of his enlistment. He was also in the "hundred days" service. He is a life-long farmer, but has latterly retired from all active work. He is a partner with his brother in the possession of 400 acres of land and in a fine business block of Plain City. He also owns a neat brick house, now occupied by him as a residence. He started with nothing, but is now possessed of a comfortable competency. He is a Republican, and has been Township Trustee.
