Son of George Martin Cunningham & Mary Blackwell.
Obituary: Died at Black Springs, B.M.V. Cunningham. The deceased was born at Lawrenceburg, Tennessee, January 19, 1842, and died at Black Springs, Arkansas, February 13, 1909, being 57 years and 25 days of age. Not withstanding the deceased had been in failing health for several months, his death was a great shock. He was sitting in his chair last Saturday evening apparently in better health than for some time past. About 8:30 the wind, rain and hail storm came up, somewhat exciting him when there came a heavy clap of thunder. This brought on heart trouble and he expired within fifteen minutes. Mr. Cunningham was an ex-Confederate soldier, a good citizen, and a man who won the friendship of those with whom he associated. He leaves a wife, a step son, A. L. Smith of Slatington, a niece, Mrs. Irena Stewart, landlady of the City Hotel at this place, three brothers, one sister, and many friends to mourn his death. The interment took place at the Black Springs cemetery Monday afternoon, Rev. Howell conducted the services.
