William O. Larimore, the owner of a valuable and well improved farm in Payson township, was born May 26, 1863, on his father's farm, about one and one-half miles east of Plainville, his parents being Albert and Julia (Pottle) Larimore. The father came from Virginia and was one of the early settlers of Adams county, Illinois. In the family are three children, of whom William O. is the eldest. His brother, Edward Norton Larimore, married Miss Winifred Hartshorn and lives one and a half miles east of Plainville. Mary is the wife of Frank Penick, an attorney of Quincy, and they have one son, Mark Albert.
William O. Larimore pursued his education in the common schools of Adams county and in Knox College at Galesburg, Illinois, where for two winter seasons he pursued an English course. He has always carried on general farming and began business on his own account on a portion of the farm on which he yet resides. He owns one hundred and sixty acres of land on section 14, Payson township, constituting a splendid farm property, supplied with all modern accessories and equipments. He has recently completed a new barn, forty-four by sixty feet, and the other buildings upon his place are substantial and of modern appearance. He raises both grain and stock. He feeds cattle and raises hogs and horses, making a specialty of draft and coach horses. He is also engaged in the raising of Aberdeen Angus cattle. He has also dealt in North Dakota land and his speculation in this property has proved profitable. He is a young man of excellent business ability, seldom at fault in matters of judgment and his energy has resulted in bringing him a very gratifying measure of prosperity.
On the 3d of September, 1885, Mr. Larimore was married to Miss Blanch Humphrey, a daughter of William V. and Cinderella Humphrey. The Humphrey family is of English lineage and the father of Mrs. Larimore removed from Loudoun county, Virginia, to Illinois in 1836, settlings near Burton. The journey was made down the Ohio river and up the Mississippi to Quincy, Mr. Humphrey coming to this state in company with his parents, for he was then a lad. By his marriage he became the father of seven children, all of whom are yet living: Gill M., who married Margaret Yetten, lives in Carthage, Illinois, and has two children. Mary E. became the wife of George Potter and after his death married Thomas Spence, who is also deceased. She now resides in Chicago and his five children. Thomas L. married Susan Eckel, by whom he has four children, and lives in Macomb, Illinois. Alice M. is the wife of George T. Muhl, of Miami county, Indiana, and they have five children. James is a miner, connected with an assaying company in Arizona. Charley married Clara Wagey, and with their four children they reside in Johnston county, Missouri. Mrs. Larimore is the youngest of the family and she pursued her education in the common schools and in a normal school at Macomb, Illinois.
Unto Mr. and Mrs. Larimore have been born six children: Humphrey O., born June 25, 1886, who is a graduate of the high school of Payson, and is engaged in teaching in Adams county; Harry W., who has born Aug. 20, 1889, and is attending school; Blanch May, born July 23, 1892; Julia Edna, born March 9, 1896; Alice, born July 17, 1898, and William Ray, born January 9, 1902. Since attaining his majority Mr. Larimore has given his political support to the republican party, and he is a member of the Modern Woodmen of America. In his business career he has made steady progress toward the goal of success and his enterprising efforts have classes him with the leading and representative farmers of the county.
