The late Mr. Lanyon was born at St. Just, Cornwall, and came to Australia in 1848, landing at Adelaide. As a boy he found employment in the copper mines of that colony. Subsequently he proceeded to Victoria, and tried his fortune at the Forest Creek diggings. In March, 1852, he came to Bendigo, and remained on the goldfield for the remainder of his lifetime. He was interested in some mining ventures in the earlier days, and throughout his life followed the occupation of a miner. Some 10 months ago he was compelled to desist from work, miners' complaint having made its insidious presence felt in his system. He received careful attention at the hands of Dr. Fullerton, but his life could not be prolonged. His end, however, came rather suddenly, as he was in Bendigo on Easter Monday, in company with his eldest son, and witnessed the carnival procession. The late Mr. Lanyon was greatly respected and esteemed by those who knew him best. While he took a deep interest in public matters and in the welfare of the State and city, he was not associated with any public movements, being of a modest and retiring disposition. He was a member of the Royal Albert Lodge, M.U.I.O.O.F., Long Gully. He leaves to mourn their loss a widow, three sons and two daughters. The eldest son'97Mr. Richard Lanyon'97is well known in market circles. A sister of the deceased gentleman is Mrs. James Clark, of Maryborough. The funeral takes place to-morrow at 4 p.m. to the White Hills Cemetery." He had an estate probated in the Supreme Court on May 15, 1911 in Victoria, Australia. 5 10 John married Honor Maria White, daughter of John Edwards White and Jane Roberts, in 1857 in Victoria, Australia.1 2 (Honor Maria White was born in Jan 1839 in St Just, Cornwall, England, 3 11, baptised on Jan 27, 1839 in St Just, Cornwall, England, 12 13 and died on Dec 28, 1920 in Long Gully (Bendigo), Victoria, Australia 11 14.)
