Daniel W. Waymire
This representative farmer and stockman of Jordan township, Jasper county, was born in this county February 6, 1863, a son of John and Mary { McMullin } Waymire, honored pioneers of Indiana, who bravely encountered and surmounted the hardships and deprivations of frontier life and were influential factors in developing the resources of the country. A sketch of the family will be found in the record of Fredric Waymire on another page of this volume. Of the mother's family but little is known, as she was left an orphan at an early age. She has two sisters, Nancy { Mrs. Marlo } and Betsy A. { Mrs. Eller }. The subject of this review was brought up on the old homestead, which after his marriage he brought from his father. He has always been energetic and industrious, and is prominently identified with the agricultural and stockraising interests of the county. He is now extensively engaged in the latter business, from which he derives a handsome income. Mr. Waymire was married March 13, 1891, to Miss May Hammond, and they have one son, Delos, born November 3, 1894. Mrs. Waymire is a member of the Baptist church and is active in all good works. Her husband is a strong Republican and is ever ready to work for the good of his party. The parents of Mrs. Waymire, Stewart and Rebecca { Pillars } Hammond, are natives of Indiana, were married near Lancaster, and came to Jasper county in 1848, where the father bought land, opened up a farm, engaged in stock-raising and also did some work at his trade of carpenter. He is now retired from business and with his wife is living in Rensselaer, where they are enjoying the fruits of their well spent lives. Both are members of the Free Will Baptist church and Mr. Hammond takes as active interest in all public affairs, especially in connection with those of the Republican party. The children of this worthy couple were seven in number, as follows: William, who died when fourteen years of age; Emma is the wife of M. Adams; Joseph was a teacher in Demotte, Indiana, and is now engaged in the insurance business and is also truant officer of the county; Rose is the wife of Clarence Harold; Charles a teacher in Mount Ayr; Mary, wife of our subject; and Bertha.[TLWalters2005.FTW]
