Obituary
 
John Thomas Wayne was born in Missouri, April 18, 1849, and passed away at the 
home of his son Frank Wayne Tuesday morning, October 23 at 2:10 following a 
years illness.  He was operated upon a year ago for cancer, and never 
recovered, as the cancer had gotten too far into his system.  He was confined 
to his bed only two days at the last.
 
He lived in Missouri the greater part of his life, and was united in marriage 
to Miss Elizabeth Mullen January 11, 1872, in Henry county near Clinton, 
Missouri.  Six children were born to this union, 4 of whom survive.  They are, 
Mrs. Reta Van  Fossen of Tacoma, Wash.; Mrs. G. Kerfoot of Baker, Oregon; 
Anthony of Danville, Illinois; and Frank of Fruitland.  Two daughters preceded 
him in death.
 
In 1894 the family moved to Oklahoma, where they lived until December 1905, 
when they came to Fruitland and settled on a ranch in Whitley Bottom.  Here 
Mrs. Wayne passed away in 1915.  Since that time Mr. Wayne has made his home 
with his daughter, Mrs. Kerfoot and his son Frank.  He had been here since 
August.
 
Besides his two sons and two daughters he leaves to mourn his loss, 10 
grandchildren, also a host of friends, who held him in great esteem and 
respect.
 
Funeral services were held from the Peterson funeral home in Payette Wednesday 
afternoon at 2:30 conducted by Rev. George Roseberry.  Interment was made 
beside his wife in Riverside cemetery.
 
The sympathy of the entire community is extended to the bereaved ones that are 
left.
