  JONATHAN WAITE, one of Hortonia township's leading agriculturists, who has one of the best eighty-acre farms to be found in this section, was born October 10, 1845, in the town of Dayton, Cattaraugus county, New York, a son of Martin and Lavina (Adams)Waite. Martin Waite was born in Washington county, New York, in 1809, a son of Isaac, who had been a resident of New York state for many years, the family originally having come from England. In 1856 Martin Waite came to Wisconsin, settling in Hortonville, where the family resided for two years. He was married in New York to Lavina Adams, born March 11, 1816, in Onondaga county, that state, and she died in 1850, Mr. Waite surviving her until March, 1896. Jonathan Waite, who was one of ten children born to his parents, received a part of his education in New York and finished it in Hortonville. When fifteen years of age he left home and went to work on the farms of neighboring agriculturists, and at the age of twenty-one years had salved $500 and was also the possessor of a deed to eighty acres of land, on which he moved. But little clearing had been done on this property, but he set to work and cleared and cultivated it, and now has one of the finest farms to be found in this part of the county. He carries on general farming and dairy work, and the success that he has attained is ample proof of his ability as an agriculturist. In 1873 Mr. Waite was married to Ella Jones, who was born in Hortonville, March 16, 1846, daughter of William and Martha (Leitch) Jones, and they have had twelve children: William, who was drowned in the river when twenty years of age; Duane, who died in infancy; Rosa,. who married George Moder; Nettie, the wife of Vernon McGreen; Mary, who married Frank Bowe; Vina, who married William Steinke; Irvin, at home; Bertha, who married Otto Schwartzkopf; Reyna, who is teaching district school in Dale township; and John, Martha and Marvin, who are living at home. For several years Mr. Waite was on the town board and served as town treasurer for one year. He has always been a great advocate of education, and for a period covering twenty-two years was school clerk of Hortonia township.
