Wayne died during a return trip to [[Pennsylvania]] from a military post in [[Detroit]]. It has been speculated but never proven that Wilkinson had him assassinated by poison. Wilkinson is documented secretly undermining him throughout his later career, benefited from his death, and would replace him as commander after his death.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://allthingsliberty.com/2013/08/was-general-anthony-wayne-murdered/|title=Was General Anthony Wayne Murdered?|first=Hugh T.|last=Harrington|date=August 20, 2013|website=Journal of the American Revolution}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://historynewsnetwork.org/article/159602|title=Why I Believe Meriwether Lewis Was Assassinated &#124; History News Network|website=historynewsnetwork.org|date=June 28, 2015 }}</ref>

Wayne was buried at [[Fort Presque Isle]], where the modern Wayne Blockhouse stands. His son, [[Isaac Wayne]], disinterred the body in 1809 and had the corpse boiled to remove the remaining flesh from the bones.<ref name="IHA">{{cite web |title=Wayne Buried in Two Places |url=http://www.ushistory.org/paoli/history/wayneburied.htm |website=Paoli Battlefield |publisher=Independence Hall Association |via=ushistory.org |access-date=16 October 2019}}</ref> He then placed the bones into two saddlebags and relocated them to the family plot in the graveyard of [[St. David's Episcopal Church (Radnor, Pennsylvania)|St. David's Episcopal Church]] in [[Wayne, Pennsylvania]].<ref>[http://www.americanrevolution.org/wayne.html Hugh T.
