Thomas Hand is a fine representative of the enterprising and energetic young farmers of Gage County who are nobly doing their part toward sustaining and developing its great agricultural interests. He is a son of John Hand, whose biography may be found on another page of this volume. Mr. Hand already has his farm on section 35, Paddock Township, under good tillage, supplied with the necessary buildings, and stocked with cattle of good grades, he may well feel proud of what he has accomplished within a few years. Mr. Hand was born October 31, 1857, in the state of Ohio, and there the first years of his life were passed. He was a lad of eleven years when the removal of his parents and their family to Clinton County, Iowa, took place. There the next ten years of his life were spent, and he grew to be a man, sturdy, vigorous and self-reliant, well able to make his own way successfully in the world. He was twenty-one years of age when he came to Nebraska with his parents. He made his first purchase of land of the Government, buying eighty acres on section 35, and had just enough money to meet the payment. He set to work with a will to improve it and get it under cultivation, and he was subsequently enabled to buy forty acres of land adjoining his own, in the same section, purchasing it of his sister, who had taken it under the provisions of one of the land acts and had proved upon it. He now has a valuable farm, well adapted both to grain and stock raising, in which he engages quite extensively with good financial success. Mr. Hand was married, April 9, 1885, to Miss Bessie Craven, a daughter of Issac and Ellen Craven. Mrs. Hand was born in England and when a child of four years came to the United States with her parents. They located in Montgomery County, Iowa, and there Mrs. Hand was reared and educated. In September, 1881, Mr. & Mrs. Craven removed with their family to Marshall County, Kansas. Mr. Hand is a young man of good habits and sound principles; he is intelligent and well informed, and is classed among the best citizens of Paddock Township. He takes quite an interest in political questions of the day, and is a firm supporter of the Republican party. He and his amiable young wife are members of the Evangelical Methodist Church, and they are zealous workers within its fold.
