General Notes: Husband - Thomas Nye


He farmed with his father, and labored at agricultural pursuits all his life. He lived in the true pioneer days, when there was plenty of game for the obtaining of it, and the settlers' cabins were few and far between. He worked hard at clearing their land, and succeeded admirably in wresting a sustenance and a comfortable livelihood from the soil.
