      Samuel Bunting.  Among the representative men of 
Cumberland Township we mention Samuel Bunting, a farmer and 
stock grower, who was born in Fayette County, Penna, April 
28, 1836.  He is a son of Samuel Bunting and Nancy Butler 
Bunting, natives of Pennsylvania, and of German and English 
origin.  Mr Bunting's father, who has made milling the 
business of his life, has now reached the advanced age of 
eighty four years.  Samuel was the fourth in his family of 
eleven children, and was brought up in Fayette and Greene 
Counties, having lived in the latter since he was eight 
years old.  Early in life he learned the miller's trade with 
his father, continued in the business until 1885, and has 
since been engaged in farming where he now resides near 
Carmicheals, Penna.
  
      He was united in marriage February 22, 1859, with 
Agnes Horner, oldest daughter of Samuel Horner and Mary Cree 
Horner.  Mrs Bunting is of English descent.  Her father was 
a wealthy miller and also engaged somewhat extensively in 
farming.  In politics Mr Bunting is a Prohibitionist.  He 
and his wife are zealous and active members of the 
Presbyterian Church, in which he is an elder, and is also 
serving as assistant superintendent of the Sabbath school.
