Hungerford, Myron
Birth
Myron, a son of Alexander Hungerford and Mary Van Schaick , was born in the town of Berne, Albany county, New York, March 10, 1856[1]
Occupation
He was educated in the public schools, and settled in Guilderland on a farm of which he was a tenant twenty-two years. During this time he purchased a farm in New Scotland, but continued to operate his rented farm until 1904, when he removed to his own farm in New Scotland, consisting of one hundred and twenty-six acres of tillable land, lying along Norman's Kill and overlooking that beautiful valley of finely-cultivated fields and bountiful orchards. He is a modern, practical farmer, and uses the best methods, giving back to mother earth a full share that she may continue her bounty. All about his estate shows the progressive, careful man of business. He is a lifelong Democrat. [1]

He married, in New Scotland, September 15, 1878, Sarah Alice, born in that town, December 10, 1859, daughter of John and Edith (Jacobson) Oliver. She is a member of the Presbyterian church. Although for some years an invalid, Mrs. Hungerford is of bright and cheerful temperament and bears her loss of health with fortitude. They have no children.[1]
Death
His wife, Sarah, died in 1921. Myron died in 1932. Both are buried at Prospect Hill Cemetery, Guilderland, Albany Co., NY
