Came From Nebraska to Oregon in 1900 William Bramwell Hayden was born at Springport, Jackson County, Michigan, April 4, 1850 and died Sunday Morning, February 17, 1935, at his home in Toledo, Oregon, aged 84 years, 10 months and 13 days. When a young man he went to Illinois where on October 31, 1874, he was united in marriage with Miss Annie Pulyer. Tothis union six children were born, five of whom are still living: Mrs. N. H. Sherwood of Otter Rock, Mrs. C. H. Gleason, Geneva, Ohio, Kenneth H. of Saginaw, Michigan and Max B. and Fern N. of this city. In 1884 the family moved to Fairfield, Nebraska, where they remained until 1900, when they moved to Oregon, spending five years near Portland, and coming to Toledo in october 1905, and where he resided until his death. His wife passed away about ten years ago, soon after they had celebrated their golden wedding anniversary. Mr. Hayden followed farming most of his life, with the exception of a few years in the livery business in Nebraska. About fifteen years ago, he retired from active labor. Mr. Hayden was a staunch republican and had very little faith in latterday theories of political leaders. He met his obligations as they became due and had a good word for all. Funeral services were held at the Bateman Undertaking parlors at 9:00 p.m. Tuesday, the 19th, with Rev. R. A. Feenstra officiating. Interment was in the Newport cemetery immediately thereafter.
