In these years he took an Indian wife who bore him seven children, and his concern for them is a recurring theme in his papers; he made provision for them in his will. In this period also he formed lifelong friendships with other fur traders such as James Hargrave, John George McTavish*, and John Siveright*; the latter pictured him as “open, friendly & consistant.” from biography by Elizabeth Arthur, University of Toronto - http://www.biographi.ca/009004-119.01-e.php?BioId=38500.

His financial position began to improve, but his frustration with the work he was asked to perform increased. First he had to cope with the Ottawa lumbermen at the Chats, who were opposed to the fur trade; on the other hand many lumbermen and contractors on the Ottawa River were also traders. He met equally fierce competition in the Saint-Maurice region where he replaced Robert McVicar in 1830." from biography by Elizabeth Arthur, University of Toronto - http://www.biographi.ca/009004-119.01-e.php?BioId=38500.

But a last-minute change of plan sent him in 1833 to Mingan, Lower Canada, on the north shore of the Gulf of St Lawrence, where for several successive winters he found himself completely cut off from the rest of the world with little work to do and little reading or society available." from biography by Elizabeth Arthur, University of Toronto - http://www.biographi.ca/009004-119.01-e.php?BioId=38500.

There in 1842 he married Jane McMurray, daughter of Thomas McMurray* whom he had replaced at the post. It was perhaps the difference of 26 years in their ages that prompted a friend’s remark: “Everyone knows their own circumstances and state of affairs best.” They had three sons.

The buildings at Fort Pelly had been destroyed by fire in 1843, and Cumming’s first task was to rebuild them. Worse, he became convinced that the maintenance of an operation at Fort Pelly and the use of the Swan River transport route were errors in company policy. His journal expresses his dissatisfaction with limitations on the prairie fur trade and concern for the decreasing numbers of buffalo, which brought famine to the Indians. He was seeing the end of an era.

As soon as we entered, with great agility, he squared up to John George [McTavish], and set himself in Boxing attitude, seemingly jealous of the honor of rotundity being contested with him. You would have laughed to have witnessed the graceful movements of these sparring Birds of so like a feather.” Cumming lived till the age of 83." from biography by Elizabeth Arthur, University of Toronto - http://www.biographi.ca/009004-119.01-e.php?BioId=38500.
