At the age of thirteen Mr. Brunson moved with his family to Nodaway county, Missouri, and there, when he was a young man of twenty-four, he married Mary E. Luce on March 15, 1883. In 1886 they moved to Barton county, where Mr. and Mrs. Brunson resided for twenty-four years. In 1910 they moved to Pawnee county, and Mr. and Mrs. Brunson have lived here ever since.
