1911 Book on Story Co., Iowa
Jay G. Dutton, president of the Farmers Bank of Nevada, throughout the last period of his residence in this city, covering thirteen years, has long been accorded a prominent position in business and financial circles. His record is another proof of the fact that success is not the result of genius as held by some, but is rather the outcome of clear judgment, experience and close application.
He was born in Benton County, IA, August 31, 1866, and in 1870 was brought to Nevada by his parents, O.B. and Elizabeth A. (Beavers) Dutton, the former a native of New York and the latter of New Jersey. Jay G. Dutton was only four years of age when his parents came to Nevada and in the public schools of this city he began his education, which was continued after the removal of the family to Missouri Valley. In the latter place he made his initial step in business, becoming the first cashier of the First National Bank of Missouri Valley, which position he occupied for seven years, or until his removal from that place to Ferry, Iowa. His attention was then given to the lumber and grain trades and to the banking business for seven years, when he disposed of his interests there. He then returned to Nevada, where since 1897 he has continuously made his home. He came here with the intention of entering the banking business and purchased an interest in the Farmers Bank, of which he has since been the president. He is thoroughly familiar with every phase of banking and is conducting a business that safeguards the interests of depositors and also promotes the success of the institution. He is also the owner of extensive landed interests in this county and elsewhere, much of his capital having been placed in the safest of all investments-real estate.
In 1891 Mr. Dutton was united in marriage to Miss Lida Briggs, a native of Nevada and a daughter of Otis and Jennie Briggs. The father is now deceased, and the mother resides in Los Angeles, CA. Unto Mr. and Mrs. Dutton have been born two children: Dorothy and Orson B.
The family are prominent in Nevada, the hospitality of the best homes being cordially extended them. As a citizen Mr. Dutton advocates and supports all those measures and movements which are of practical value in the upbuilding of the city along material, intellectual, social and moral lines. His entire life has been actuated by a spirit of enterprise that is manifest in his public relations as well as in his private business affairs. He is resolute and determined, accomplishing what he undertakes and his success is the logical sequence of his industry, close application and business integrity.

DUTTON FUNERAL HELD SATURDAY
"Reamins of prominent citizen laid to rest after a simple service"
Nevada people paused for an hour in their usual pursuits Thursday to pay their final tribute of earthly respect to Jay G. Dutton, a neighbor and friend, and for many years one of the most prominent business figures in the country, who had died early Tuesday morning.
The funersl services were held at the home in the east part of the city, where relatives and friends from all parts of the state mingled with neighbors and friends of Story county, in one of the largest gatherings of a similar nature that Story county has seen.
The casket lay banked in a wonderful floral display adn the setting for the service was a fitting one--in the house in which he had taken his marriage vows thirty-eight years ago and where his home had been for the past thirty years.
The services were in charge of Dr. R M Shipman, pastor of the First Methodist Church of Ames and former pastor of the First Methodist church of Nevada. The songs were by F.O. Ingalls with Mrs Armstrong at the piano.
Honorary pallbearers for the funeral were members of the Nevada Rotary Club, of which he had been the first president and always an active member, while the active pallbearers were the men connected with the the Farmers Trust and Savings bank organization.
Members of the Twentieth Century Club, a social club of the city that Mr Dutton had ong been a member of attended the funeral in a body.
A long cortege of relatives and friends followed the body to the Nevada cemetery, where interment was made.
Amoung relatives and friends from a distance who were present at the funeral were the brother O.J. Dutton, Mrs Dutton, the daughter Mrs Pauline Cammack, Mr adn Mrs O.W. Dutton, son and daughter, and Mr and Mrs Dutton Goodwin, all of Grand Junction.
From the family of a half sister at Lake City came Miss Vivian Leonard, Dave Leonard, Mrs Durby and Miss Swinder.
Mrs. W.H. Ripey and Miss Dorothy here from Norway, Mr and Mrs S. Sutherland from Manning, Mr and Mrs R.A. Crawford from Des Moines, Mr and Mrs T.L. Ashford from Boone adn Mr and Mrs Homer N.
