Person:Rudolph Waymire (1)

"Rudolph Waymire, subject of this brief memoir, was born in Wayne County, Ind., November 17, 1839, and was educated in the schools of Madison County, whither his father removed when he was about four years of age. When sixteen years of age, after his mother's second marriage, he left home and began working by the month as a farm hand, continuing this for about three years. After that he began farming for himself, and in about 1860 he embarked in the grain trade in Frankton. Five years later he again resumed farming, and this has been his principle occupation since."
