Orleans Progress Examiner, Nov 17, 1910: John K Mavity Dead. John K Mavity, one of the best known citizens in Orange county, died at his home in Stampers Creek township last Friday morning of liver and heart trouble, aged about sixty years. Ever since his early manhood he had prominently identified with the common school system of our county and had successfully taught in many school districts in our county. He was a man of more than ordinary talent and came from a family that possibly contributed more good school teachers to the cause of education than any other family in the county. Three brothers and three sisters were all teachers in the common schools of our county and more than one gained prominence in the educational world. After his retirement from school duty he bought a farm in Stampers Creek township about three miles from Bromer and settled down to a home life. Here he was an ideal man, highly respected by all his neighbors and idolized by his family. His habits were those of a good christian gentleman and his presence in the community will be greatly missed. He leaves a large family and a large circle of friends and acquaintances, not confined to his immediate neighborhood, to mourn his death. The large crowd that attended his funeral at old Pinhook church, where he first embraced the faith of Christ, attested to his popularity in the community where he was born and raised.
Orleans Progress Exmainer, Nov 17, 1910: Stampers Creek. John K Mavity, one of the most highly respected citizens of our township, died at his home a few miles northwest of here on last Friday morn about 2 a.m. He was about 60 years of age and had been a citizen of our township for a number of years. His first wife was Miss Anna Doak, a daughter of Robert Doak of this township. After her death several years ago he was married to Mrs. Sarah A Dougherty, who survives him, together with nine children and several grandchildren who mourn his loss. We will not attempt any further obituary at this time, since we feel that someone more acquainted with the facts of his life will hand to the editor a more fitting memorial than we could write. We extend our sympathy to the widow, children and all relatives and friends.
