JOHN CUNNINGHAM, deceased, whose portrait appears in this work, may be truthfully said to have been one of the representative men of Bourbon County. He was born June 15, 1795, in Hardy County, Virginia. His parents were Robert arid Mary Robinson Cunningham, both of whom were natives of the Old Dominion. Robert was born September 15, 1775. Robert was a son of John Cunningham, a native of Ireland, who emigrated to Virginia prior to the Revolution. Robert was a participant in the Whisky Rebellion of 1794, and served as Major; his sword is yet in the hands of grand children here in Clintonville. He came to Kentucky in 1796, embarking at Wheeling in a flat boat, and settled on Strode's Creek, in Clark County. To him were born John, Belinda, Jesse, Abner, Lucinda, Isaac, Jemima, Maria and Mary. John and Abner settled in Bourbon County; Jesse, Isaac and Maria settled in Clark County; Maria became the wife of Matthew Hume; Elizabeth, wife of John Flournoy, of Scott County; Mary, of George Carlysle, of Woodford County; Isaac became the father of twenty-tbree children; but one of the number came to maturity, Rebecca, who married Isaac Vanmeter, of Clark County. John Cunningham, the subject of these lines, was married December 27, 1817, to Mary Bean, a native of this State. She was born Stopt. 22, 1796, on Strode's Creek, in Clark County. She is the daughter of John Bean, and Eva, daughter of Dr. Peter Sensine, a native of Ireland. Mr. Cunningham removed to Bourbon County in 1818, where he spent the greater portion of his life. He was truly a representative man of his time. His early advantages for acquiring an education were very meagre, but he made the best of his advantages and studied, and read much. Being a close and steady thinker, a liberal patron of good books, and the public journals, he became at length a well-informed man of the locality. He engaged successfully in farming; was a large land-holder at the time of his death; was very methodical and exact in his farming operations, building fence of the most durable character, stone being his choice, of which he has left many monuments in this line. He did much to encourage the breeding and growth of fine stock-borses seemed his favorite class. He gave especial attention to them, and owned the noted horse "Woodpecker." He served as a soldier in the war of 1812, and was a warm and ardent admirer of Henry Clay. From 1833 to 1850 he served as Justice of the Peace; in 1853 he began handling short horns, and continued in this interest up to the time of his death. In 1833 he was chosen to represent his County in the legislature, re-elected in 1839, and to the Senate in 1851, '2, '3. and '4. In all matters that pertained to the good of the Commonwealth, John Cunningham ever bore a prominent part; he largely encouraged the building of railroads and pikes; he was free-hearted and unselfish in his aims and purposes, and labored for the good of his county and country generally, and at his death he was mourned as one beloved by all; he passed away peacefully, Aug. 17, 1864. His wife yet survives him on the homestead, upon which lives John and Naomi; Robert and Lewis on farms adjoining.

Capt. James Smith of Indian notoriety, was stationed in the fort at the time. They were married when their united ages did not exceed thirty years, and lived together as man and wife for sixty-seven years. Nine daughters and three sons were born to them ; the father of our subject, Col. Henry Clay, was one of the youngest of these sons. He was born in 1779, and subsequently married Miss Peggy Helm, the daughter of Joseph Helm, of Lincoln County, Ky. Twelve children were born to them, six sons and six daughters. Our subject was born June 4, 1798, and was married at the age of twenty-three years to Miss Olivia, daughter of George M. and Henrietta Bedinger, of Nicholas County, Ky.
