Son of Samuel and Lucinda Whiteman Humberd, and grandson of Alvah Humberd.

From the Flora, IN Democrat, 1927:

Following a lengthy illness John M. Humberd, well known and highly respected local resident, died at his home on East Columbia Street Tuesday. Last summer he contracted pneumonia and for several weeks was in a grave condition. Finally he practically recovered and for some time had been able to be up and about the home. Again he was stricken with the malady and, with his body in a still weakened condition, he was unable to combat it. Funeral services were held at the First Brethren church Thursday afternoon at two o'clock, conducted by the pastor, Rev. Frank G. Coleman. Interment was made in Maple Lawn cemetery.

John M. Humberd, son of Samuel and Lucinda Humberd, was born on the old Humberd homestead southeast of the city on July 20, 1866 and was at his demise 59 years, 5 months and 9 days of age. His life for the most part had been spent in Carroll county and the last sixteen years he and his family had made Flora their residence. On September 4, 1889, he was married to Miss Phoebe A. Flora. To this union were born six children, three having died in infancy. The living are: Russell I. Humberd, of Ashland College, Ashland, Ohio; Mrs. Virgil Stinebaugh, of Delphi, and Miss Neva, at home, an employee of the local post office. Besides the wife and children, he also leaves one brother, four sisters and a foster brother, as follows: Mrs. C A Welty, Mrs. Edward Walker, Mrs. Wilbur Richardson, all of near Flora; Mrs. Nancy Miller of Hagerstown, Ind.; Rev. I A Humberd of North Little Rock, Arkansas, and Charles Pope, of Flora. Five grandchildren and a host of relatives and friends are also left to mourn the passing of this fine man. For the past thirty years he had been a member of the Flora First Brethren church and the last 25 years had served as one of its deacons.
