The Troy weekly times., May 22, 1858, Page 2 Died in Williamsburg. He was a Mormon.

Contributed By Stan Bailey:
Samuel Francis Neslen seems to have been a man “without guile.” He is referred to fondly by Hannah T. King in the family’s first trip to the valley in 1853. He accompanied Orson Hyde on the Carson Valley mission (in what would be Nevada) and returned as an escort to Parley P. Pratt returning from a mission in California. He served a mission to England with his brother Robert and while returning home, died of tuberculosis on May 13, 1858 and is buried at Cypress Hill Cemetery in New York.
