John Webster was born 1868 in Camden County, Missouri to William Harrison (Tip) Webster and Martha Elizabeth (Betty) Garrison, daughter of Joseph & Elizabeth (King) Garrison.

John grew up in Camden County and married Susan Hattie Nicholson in 1890. The couple lived on a very remote farm in Warren Township near the Niangua River, far off of any main road, where they had five daughters and two sons between 1894 and 1910. Tragedy struck when Hattie died in 1912 at age 39, leaving John with a houseful of children to care for. One of his daughters stepped into the mother/housekeeper role, and John continued to rear the children, never remarrying.

John buried his wife in Union Cemetery, and when he died in 1927, he was buried there with her.
