raised on a farm. Mr. Hume was married twice, first to Rachel W. Connelly in
1845, in the State of Kentucky; she died in 1863. He was married to Martha D.
Hume (widow of Weeden Hume, a cousin of E. W. S. Hume) in 1875; she was born
in Greensburg, Indiana in 1842. Mrs. Hume had a daughter (Olive) by her
previous marriage. Mr. Hume is the founder of the town which bears his name;
the railroad station and village were located on what was once a portion of
his farm."
    "Mr. Hume was engaged in the grain business, held theoffice of Justice
of the Peace, the first Village President, and was the first appointed
Postmaster of Hume."
    "Mr. Hume died in 1881 at the old Hume homestead which,several years
later, was bought by Mr. Fred Cash. He is buried at Edgar Cemetery."
    "After the death of Mr. Hume, Martha and Olive went toCalifornia to
reside. She, however, made several visits to the old home, the last being at
the time of the Homecoming event in Hume, 1914. Mrs. Hume died in 1922, at
the age of eighty-one; she is buried at Edgar Cemetery."
