who was born in the city of Clonmell, Ireland, in 1829. He was one of four children
of Patrick Cummings. John, the father, was a miller m his native place. He came
to America and direct to the town of Berne, where he engaged in farming which he
continued until recent years, when he retired to the village of Reidsville and leased
his farm. In 1864 he enlisted in Co. B, 81st Regiment N. V. Vols., and served until
the close of the war, participating in the battle of the Wilderness, where he received
a wound and lost part of his hand. He was under General Butler in five active en-

daughter of Thomas Shea; to them were born five children: James, born June 25,

the common schools and remained at home until they were twenty-four years of age,
when they embarked in business for themselves, their first enterprise being farming
and quarrying, which they followed for seven years. They dissolved partnership,
James remaining at the quarry and John repaired to Albany and engaged in the
stone business from 1891 to 1895. They then moved to Voorheesville and established
themselves in the feed, grain and produce business, and in connection with this they
carried on an extensive stone business. James married Ella Van Deusen of Berne,
and daughter of Robert A. Van Deusen. Their children are Carrie and George.
