Richard Lee Dunville was the third generation of the Dunville family to farm on the same land near Slaughters, Kentucky in Webster County.

Gus and Zuma spent their married life on a farm located on a road that runs from highway no. 41 to Onton, Kentucky, about one mile south-east of Onton. Gus was the fourth generation of the Dunville family to farm this same land. His grandfather's (Richard Andrew Dunville Jr) house, his father's (Richard Lee Dunville) house and his uncle's (Benjamin Harry Dunville) house were all located within a few hundred yards of his home. It was to the credit of Gus and the modern day farm techniques of the time that the land increased in productive ability.

Clarence and Nancy Ellen raised their family on a farm located near Onton, Kentucky just like the Dunville men in this branch of the family had done ever since Clarence's great grandfather Richard Andrew Dumville Sr (born about 1765 near Dublin, Ireland) and his wife and children settled in the area in 1814.

After Nancy Ellen died of cancer in 1957, Clarence married Ruth Villines Day.

The information for this family tree was provided by Martin Dunville (1922-1992) of Michigan and Florida.
