VERNIE NAGLEY
is a practical farm manager and owner, and his home is a
farm in Madison Township, near Selma. He was born at
Fort Wayne, Indiana, Jan. 5, 1879, son of George and
Catherine (Gram) Nagley. His parents were both
natives of Clark County, his father born in Madison
Township, in 1847, and his mother, in Greene Township.
Vernie Nagley was only four years of age when
his mother died, and he was soon afterward left an orphan.
From the age of five he was reared by W. P. Nagley
until he was about ten years old. He has spent most of
his life on the farm where he lives today. He acquired
a common school education, and at the age of eighteen left
home and spent three years on a cattle ranch in the West.
He then returned and has since been identified with his work
as a farmer and stockman.
Mr. Nagley, who is unmarried, is
affiliated with Fielding Lodge Mo. 192, Free and Accepted
Masons, at South Charleston. He individually owns a
hundred acres, but he operates between 700 and 800 acres for
farming and raising purposes. He produces much high
grade stock, and he also buys and feeds for the market,
shipping cattle by the carload. He has been a member
for the past seven years and has served as vice president of
the Clark County Agricultural Board. He is a
republican, active in the party and has served as judge of
elections.
