Thomas Staley - Nebraska around 1857
Looking for any info on possible family connection to Thomas Staley. 1857 land records show Thomas holding Section 35, Township 5N, Range 12E. The land was associated with the Military Bounty Land Act of March 3, 1855. I have other STALEY relatives holding land in Saline County. Possible relations to Thomas could be William, Samuel, Jason who aquired their land through the Land Grant of 1862.
My relative in Saline originally came from the area of Buffalo, Pennsylvania
