Jeremiah Saylor was born Jan. 29, 1819, in Somerset county, Penn. Came to Iowa in 1859, settling on a farm in Orange township, where he resided until 1889, when he moved to Oregon. He lived there until his death, which occurred August 15, in Oregon. The deceased lived a consistent Christian life, being a member for a long time of the Progressive church. Being a gentleman of unassuming manners, he was universally respected wherever he went, and made friends.
