I. H. Adair and Mrs. Ida Whempner, both of this city, very recently came to a happy conclusion and put their conclusions into effect last Monday morning at 10:00 o'clock when they arranged matters to both live under the same roof and both eat out of the same trough. Their plans were made binding by Rev. Samuel Bollinger at his home on North 10th.
Immediately following, Mr. and Mrs. Adair left by auto for Boise and Emmett on a short honeymoon. Mr. and Mrs. Adair are well and very favorably known in Payette where they have a host of friends who will join in wishing them success and happiness in their new relation. (Payette Enterprise, 14 October 1926)

Mrs. Ida Adair was born in Illinois, December 23, 1876. Soon after she went with her parents to DuLeuth (sic) [Duluth], Minn. where she grew to womanhood. Her mother died when Ida was ten years old, she being the youngest in a family of three children.
Her father never remarried but kept the children together and raised them in his own home.
After spending some years in an Academy, she with her sister went west.
They spent a few years at Milbank, S. Dak. from which place they moved to Bowbells, N. Dak. in 1900. There she united with the Church of the Brethren in 1902.
Some years later she moved to Montana, thence to Toppenish, Wash. from which place she came to Payette in 1923. She had previously visited with her sister in Payette several times.
She was united in marriage with Mr. I. H. Adair of Payette, October 11, 1926.
Mrs. Adair never recovered from the effects of a nervous breakdown following a severe attack of the "flue" last winter. She spent a few days in the Jones Clinic of Portland last April and continued doctoring with local physicians, but no one thought her condition critical and her sudden death in the early morning of June 10th, came as a complete shock to all.
She leave to mourn her death, one brother, Martin H. nelson of Brainerd, Minn., one sister, Mrs. S. J. Kenepp of Payette, with Mr. Kenepp and their grandson Byron Shurtleff, her husband, I. H. Adair; mr. & Mrs. R. E. Nolan of Montour, Idaho; Walter Adair and wife of Payette; Ray Adair of Stuttgart, Ark. and a large circle of friends and neighbors, to whom she had endeared herself by her friendly ways and loving deeds of kindness.
Funeral services were held in the M. E. church Friday afternoon conducted by Rev. Parrett of the M. E. church and Rev. arnold of the Brethren church. Interment in the Riverside Cemetery. (Payette Enterprise, 18 June 1931)
