Biography

Mentioned in 18380512BJS_WHS1: 
 "Genl. Camp  has called for the acceptance for $500. due 1 August—which I gave him: but publically or privately there has not been one word said about the name of the old 'Robt Falconer.'"

He is listed in the Seward microfilm, and in the History of Chautauqua County, but the only passage that gives any hint of his involvement with the Chautauqua Land Office says that an angry group of citizens gathered to tear down the land office elected them as their leader, however he declined.
