John Luther Weedin married Athaline Harrington on 21 September 1907 in Seattle. Athaline was the daughter of John Tyler Harrington and Hannah Amanda Ellsworth.
John was the Sheriff of Island County from 1899 to 1902. He declared war on the smugglers and waterfront pirates who had made the isolated San Juan Islands their headquarter. John eventually succeeded in breaking up the notorious smuggling headquarter that had existed for years on Ben Ure's island in Deception Pass.
From 1905 to 1908 he was the Assessor of Island County. He also served one term as the County Treasurer, from 1909 to 1910. John later became United States Commissioner of Immigration for Puget Sound from 1921 until 1933. He operated a real estate and abstract office until his death in 1942. Athaline continued the operation until 1957.
