J. CLARKE PUBLISHING COMPANY 1916" (Page 380): Henry Nahley, who was engaged in farming in Saltillo precinct at the time of his demise, was born near Buffalo, New York, on the 27th of July 1846, a son of Henry and Catherine Nahley. The father was born in Germany and remained there for a number of years after reaching maturity but at length emigrated to the United States and located near Buffalo, New York. He engaged in farming there until he decided to try his fortune in the middle west and removed to Stanton, Iowa. He devoted his attention to farming in that locality and passed away upon his homestead. His wife, who was also born in the fatherland, made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Catherine Brown at Hickman, Nebraska, until her death. Henry Nahley grew to manhood in New York and attended the common schools in the acquirement of his education. He assisted his father in the work of the farm in New York and also gave him the benefit of his services for a time after the removal of the family to the middle west. In 1869, however, he was married and began his independent career. Fifteen years later, in 1884, he came to Lancaster county, Nebraska, and purchased one hundred and sixty acre of land two miles east Hickman. The place was under cultivation and was well improved when it came into his possession, but as the years passed he brought it to a still higher degree of development. He carried on general farming raising both grain and stock, and both branches of his business returned him a good profit. He also purchased a half section near Blayden, which was a valuable and well improved tract of land. He passed away in a hospital at Lincoln in May, 1903, at the comparatively early age of fifty-six years. In 1869 at Chenoa, Illinois, occurred the marriage of Mr. Nahley and Miss Anna Liesveld. She was born in New York city on the 27th of October, 1830, and is a daughter of Richard and Martha (Fandertams) Liesveld. Her father was a native of Holland but when a young man of about twenty-five years crossed the Atlantic to America and located New York city, whence he subsequently removed to Chicago. Still later he lived in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and on leaving that city engaged in farming near Rockville, Grant county, Wisconsin. His next removal was to the vicinity of Malvern, Iowa, where he was overseer of a large farm. He passed away there and was buried at Malvern, although his body was later removed to Holland, Nebraska and interred by that of his wife. She survived him for a number of years and came with her children to Lancaster county, Nebraska, locating on land which he had purchased near Holland several years before his demise. Her son's farm that place and she made her home there until 1879, when she was called to her reward. She was also buried at Holland. Mr. and Mrs. Nahley became the parents of twelve children, as follows: William Louis, who is farming in Grant county, Wisconsin; Martha Elizabeth who is at home with her mother; Hattie May, the wife of Ernest Krouse, a blacksmith of Grant county, Wisconsin; Lydia, deceased; Frank Edward, a farmer residing at Hickman; Sarah, the wife of Carl Ewing, of Panama; Lydia Johanna, the wife of August Berkemeyer, a farmer of Blayden; George Thomas, a carpenter residing at Malvern; Henry Andrew, who is farming in the vicinity of Hickman; Julia, at home with her mother; Ida Dreka, who married Earl Lockhart, a farmer of Blayden; and Carrie, the wife of B.E.J. Garner, who is farming near Hickman. Mr. Nahley supported the republican party and kept well informed as to the issues before the people but was not an aspirant for public office. He held membership in the German Lutheran church in his early life but later identified himself with the Dutch Reformed church. He measured up to the highest standards of manhood, and his friends still cherish his memory. He was successful in his chosen occupation, gaining a gratifying measure of prosperity through his industry and good management. In 1914 his widow removed to Hickman and built a commodious two story home with all modern improvements in Garner's addition and there she now resides. She has a wide acquaintance and is respected by all who know her. Many Thanks to Henry's Great Grandson "Duane Nahley" who has extensive history and notes on the Nahley Family.
