Stacey E. Hartley, farmer, P. O. Gardner, was born in Guernsey County, Ohio, 
June 1, 1839, son of Stacey and Mary (Wait) Hartley, natives of Ohio; he died 
in August, 1839; was a hotel-keeper; she was born in 1805, and is still 
living. Our subject was one of a family of nine children, and received such an 
education as the common schools of his native place afforded. In 1850, he came 
to Grundy County with George Willis, his brother-in-law, and engaged with him 
three years in farming, after which he labored on the railroad for one year. 
In 1855, he went to Iowa, where he remained three years, then settled in 
Gardner and engaged in farming. During the rebellion, our subject served for 
three years in Company D, One Hundred and Twenty-seventh Illinois Volunteer 
Infantry, with Capt. Chandler, the regiment being commanded by Col. Van Arnam. 
After returning from the war, Mr. Hartley resumed agricultural pursuits, near 
Gardner, where he has remained since, upon his farm of 190 acres of good land, 
all in a good state of cultivation. He makes no specialities, but grows the 
usual farm crops and raises some stock. Mr. Hartley was married, December 19, 
1868, to Rose Butterfield, born in Pennsylvania April 3, 1847; she is the 
daughter of Joseph and Susan Butterfield, both deceased. By this marriage, 
there is one child - Carrie, born October 25, 1870. Mr. Hartley has been 
School Director, is a member of the Republican party.
