    • James H. Porter Dead.
      James H. Porter, 82 years old, died Monday night at his home in Dallas, Tex. The body arrived in Fulton Thursday and interment occurred in the new cemetery, Rev. E.F. Abbott officiating.
      Mr. Porter was a former businessman of Fulton, leaving this city about 36 years ago. He came here in the early fifties and worked at his trade of saddler for many years.
      He was twice married, the first time to a Miss Overton, of Palmyra. She is buried here and he was buried by the side of her. His second wife was Miss Jennie Everheart, a sister of W.B. Everheart, Sr., of Fulton, who survives him.

  • Notes 
    • I have not found the record for his first wife, I believe they were probably married in Palmyra, Missouri.

      He re-married 2 years after her death, and about 2 years after that they went to Texas. I have not been able to find them on the census in Texas.
