NOTES:
Funeral ordered by W. F. Jory
John Jory is not listed in the IOOF Register of Burials. He is probably buried at the Jory Cemetery in Rosedale. There is a marker for him there, with his wife Caroline Budd Jory, and obituary states "Rosedale Cemetery." If he was buried at Pioneer, it would have been Lot 174 along with Jory and Budd family members.

OBITUARY:
A PIONEER GONE; JOHN H. JORY PASSES TO HIS ETERNAL HOME - BORN IN ENGLAND
John H. Jory, a pioneer of Oregon, passed from this life on Wednesday evening, June 14, 1899, at the residence of his son, Hugh F. Jory, on east Court street, this city.
He was aged 81 years, having breathed for the first time in cornwall, England, July 7, 1815. In 1836 he came to America, settling near Pittsfield, Pike county, Illinois, where he resided until 1847, when he crossed the plains to Oregon, having taken unto himself a wife, in the person of Caroline Budd, on January 1, 1846. To them ten children were born, five of whom are living, viz: James W., and Hugh F., of Marion county; Daniel F., of Grants Pass; Mary A. Holmes, of San Francisco; and Emma Laskey, of Benton county. The wife and mother also survives him, together with his four brothers, - H. S., James, Thomas, and William, of South Salem.
When he reached Oregon he came direct to what is now Marion county and settled on a donation land claim south of Salem, at present known as Rosedale.
He was a constant member of the Methodist denomination.
During the last fifteen years of his life he suffered greatly from kidney trouble.
The funeral will take place at the residence of Hugh F. Jory, at 2 p.m. tomorrow (Saturday); a brief service will be conducted, and the remains will be taken to the Rosedale cemetery for interment. Rev. T. F. Royal, of South Salem, will officiate at the funeral.
