John S. Weaver is a farmer on section 23, Sterling Township, and is the son of 
John and Anna (Suavely) Weaver, whose sketch appears on another page of this 
volume. He was born Jan. 15, 1838, in Lancaster Co., Pa., and came with his 
parents to Whiteside County. He obtained a fair common-school education, and 
since arriving at the estate of manhood has been interested in agricultural 
pursuits. He is the proprietor of 80 acres of land, which is under good 
improvements. Mr. Weaver was married in Sterling, Ill., Feb. 21, 1864, to Mary 
A., daughter of Michael and Julia (Grim) Delp. Her parents are natives of 
Pennsylvania and came in 1851 to Whiteside County, locating at first in Jordan 
and later removing to the township of Sterling. Their 10 children were named 
Benjamin, Charles, Mahlon, Caroline, Mary A., Michael, Julia, Samuel, Barbara 
and Martha. Mrs. Weaver was born in Montgomery Co., Pa., Dec. 31, 1841. Their 
surviving children are five in number, and are named Irving L., Agnes and 
Alice (twins) Mammie and Julia A. Three are deceased—Ira, Elam and Franklin.
