Born in 1822 on a farm in Henniker, New Hampshire, John Cleveland Proctor overcame early loss and hardship to become a pillar of Peoria. After moving west, he thrived in retail, lumber and banking—eventually leading the First
National Bank of Peoria.

A lifelong bachelor, John shared his success with the community, founding Cottage Hospital and establishing the John C. Proctor Endowment. His generosity led to the creation of Proctor Hospital, Proctor Home and Proctor Recreation Center. Proctor's life exemplifies the enduring impact of perseverance, family and civic-mindedness on a growing American city. He is buried in the Vista Hill section of the cemetery
