1910 US Census

 They were married at the home of her parents.
 The last name was spelled Jane (without the 'y'), through the time of
 their marriage in 1894.  Starting with the 1900 census, however, and
 from there on, it was spelled Jayne.
 John's uncle William had preceded him to the USA, and he had also
 changed the spelling of his name to Jayne.
 1900 census shows John W., Elizabeth and Alice M. in Nanticoke, Luzerne Co.
  He came to US in 1891, at virtually the same time as the Swales.
 Their address in 1900 was 18 Chestnut Street, Nanticoke.

 The 1910 census shows David J. with the others, and one non-relative,
 James Marker, born in England, age 70.
 This James appears to have arrived in the USA around 1869/1870, with
 wife Jane.
 They are possibly the James Marker & Jane Thomas married Sep qtr 1864 in
 Bedwelty, Monmothshire.  Jane was born in Wales, May 1841 (from 1900
 census) and died between 1900 and 1910.  James was born in England,
 Jan 1841 (from the 1900 census), and was a Sexton in 1900, a "Fire Boss"
 in 1880, and apparently a miner in 1870.  In 1870, his wife's name is
 listed as Jennie, and their ages slightly different.  There is also a
 Frank Marker, apparently from Wales, living nearby. In later years,
 they lived in Nanticoke, near the Jaynes.
