Daniel Sergent 1862 - 1922

A labourer and the 6th of 8 children of Thomas Sergeant and Telitha Crance, Daniel Sergent, the second cousin four-times-removed on the mother's side of Nigel Horne, was born in Allen, Indiana, USA on 22 Nov 18621,2. He was orphaned at the age of 13 following the death of his father in 1873 and mother in 1875.

During his life, he was living in Hanna, LaPorte, Indiana, USA on 1 Jul 1870; in La Porte, Indiana, USA on 8 Jun 1880; and in Osceola, Polk, Nebraska, USA in 19103, on 14 May 19104 and on 20 Jan 1920.

He died on 20 Apr 1922 in Polk, Nebraska1,2 and is buried in Osceola1,2.

Telitha may not have been his mother. In the 1910 census his mother's birth state is set to Kentucky - also he's living next door to the family house. Furthermore, Milo was born less than 9 months before Daniel.
