My Genealogy Hound

WILLIAM A. TULEY, farmer and stock-raiser, was born February 7, 1846, in Jackson Township, Spencer Co., Ind., and is the fourth in a family of six children born to John and Nancy (Hesson) Tuley, both of whom were natives of Kentucky. He received a common education from the public schools, assisted his parents until he attained majority, and when twenty-two years old, was united in marriage with Elizabeth Wright, by whom he is the father of three children, named Alice, George W. and John H. Mr. Tuley selected farming as his vocation through life, and he now owns a valuable piece of land comprising sixty acres. When treason threatened the downfall of the Union, he valiantly volunteered in his country’s cause, but by reason of defective eye-sight was rejected. Mr. Tuley is a member of the Baptist Church, a stalwart Democrat in politics, and an agreeable, enterprising gentleman. He and family are known as among the best in Jackson Township.
