Torney in Berrien CO.??????

I have an interesting problem.In the early 1960's I bought a solid gumwood blanket chest from an antique dealer in Hornitos, Mariposa Co., California.It is all hand dovetailed and has written on the bottom in probably India Ink:"Maj. F. J. Torney" and the numbers "44-100".I am trying to find out who this Major Torney may have been and where he came from.I was told that the chest was probably made in the east or south and came to Calif. either on a wagon train or around the horn.Can anyone help me find out who this man was?
Thank you.
