He pursued classical studies. He served as a [lieutenant](/source/lieutenant) in the [War of 1812](/source/War_of_1812) and was taken prisoner at the [Battle of Queenston Heights](/source/Battle_of_Queenston_Heights). On January 4, 1817, he married Clarissa Ann Van Horne at [Schenectady](/source/Schenectady%2C_New_York), and they had five children, among them Daniel Clinton Huguenin (1825–1846), who died in the [Mexican–American War](/source/Mexican%E2%80%93American_War). At the [United States House of Representatives elections in New York, 1824](/source/United_States_House_of_Representatives_elections_in_New_York%2C_1824), Hugunin received a majority of the votes cast in the 20th congressional district, but while the greater part of the votes was returned for "Daniel Hugunin, jun.", a smaller part was returned for "Daniel Hugunin, junior" and "Daniel Hugunin". The votes for the latter two variants were counted as scattering, giving a plurality to [Egbert Ten Eyck](/source/Egbert_Ten_Eyck), the incumbent [Jacksonian](/source/Jacksonian_democracy) congressman. Hugunin contested the election of Ten Eyck, and was seated as an Adams man in the [19th United States Congress](/source/19th_United_States_Congress) on December 15, 1825, holding office until March 3, 1827. In 1828, Hugunin was elected one of the first trustees of the [Village of Oswego](/source/Oswego%2C_New_York). On March 15, 1841, he was appointed by President [William Henry Harrison](/source/William_Henry_Harrison) as [United States Marshal](/source/United_States_Marshal) for [Wisconsin Territory](/source/Wisconsin_Territory). He remained in office until August 31, 1844, when Charles M. Prevost was appointed to succeed Hugunin. Hugunin later served as the harbor master at Kenosha.{{cite news|title=All Sorts of Paragraphs: Gen. D.
