Jeremiah Wayne
Jeremiah Wayne (a.k.a. John Goode)
Jeremiah Wayne was one of the founders of Gotham City, Mayor of Gotham from 1776 to 1788, and the first patriarch of the Gotham Waynes.
His origins have been subject to considerable historical debate. The Wayne family maintained that he was a respectable, if adventurous, businessman, who stumbled upon the uninhabitted Gotham Islands and decided to set up a trading post there. However other sources, including Jason Blood in his Gotham: A Metaphysical History Of America’s Strangest City, and surviving legal records from Plymouth, MA, suggest he was a serial con-man looking for somewhere to lay low, who used his charm to ingratiate himself with the existing Witchmen community.
We was married twice, first to Anne Bates, with whom he had his only child, Thomas Peter Wayne. Anne died shortly before Wayne's emmigration to Gotham, and a few years later, he married a Gotham native, Patience Bleak (theorised to be a member of the Witchmen, and possibly an ancestress of Klarion Bleake).
