Facts and Events
Cyrus lived with his daughter (Mary) Elizabeth during the 1940 US Federal Census "Cyrus F. Kunkle, son of Amos and Sarah (Kepple) Kunkle, was born September 18, 1866, in Greensburg, and was eight years of age when the family returned to the farm. It was there that he grew to manhood, assisting his father in the labors of the homestead. In 1896 or 1897 he engaged in the dairy business and followed the same four years, and in the spring of 1901 went to Ludwick. There he turned his attention to commerce, and has, for some time, been one of the leading merchants of the borough, having become so by close application to business and strict adherence to the principles of integrity. He is now serving on the school board. He belongs to Greensburg Camp, No. 18, W.O.W., votes with the Republicans, and is a member of the First Reformed church. Mr. Kunkle married, March 10, 1897, Margaret, daughter of Jonas Langhner, of Manor Station, and they have four children: Robert, Elizabeth, Evelyn, and Cyrus F."
