William and Oliver C. Staley


William Staley was born in Montgomery County in 1821, came with his father, John Staley, to Salem Township in 1831. In 1844 he married Barbara Harshbarger, a daughter of Jonas and Hettie (Jacobs) Harshbarger. They had born to them four children, only one of whom is now living, viz., Oliver C., who was born in 1847 and married Miss Anna Cargill in 1869. They have two children, Orrin C. and Roger W. Mr. Staley, although comparatively a young man, has gained the esteem and confidence of the people of his township, which has been evidenced by his election to the offices of township clerk and trustee. He is located on section 20, known as the old John Staley farm.
