Reuben McCumber was born in Shelburn, Vermont, though his father was born in Rhode Island. After living in New York (including Greece, outside of Rochester, at the 1840 census), he moved to Michigan in the 1840's, and settled in Nankin, outside of Detroit. He may have had several brothers come with him (as there are other McCumbers in the censuses for Nankin and surrounding towns-Saxton, b.1816 & John, b.1819), and his parents may have been Jonathan (1775) and Sally (1779). My information on this family is very sketchy.
