Surname: DOOLEY
-------------------------
I found these references:
April 4, 1865{Gold Hill News} daughter born to William Dooley
March 1, 1866{Gold Hill New} Son born Feb. 24, 1866 in Gold Hill to Willam
Dooley.
Oct. 23, 1867{Territorial Enterprise} Son born in Gold Hill to William
Dooley
This next reference may not be the Same William Dooley.
July 25, 1878 William Dooley from Silver City died of sunstroke in St.
Louis, Missouri.
I found another referance in the Reese River Monitor a newspaper in Lovelock.
W.J. Dooley, pioneer of Lincoln County and native of Nevada, who realized
a fortune from the April Fool Mine in Delamar, died in Salt Lake City a
few days ago. Dooley was reared in Pioche and served as county tresurer,
assemblyman and state senator for Lincoln County. After making his stake
in mining he left for Salt Lake City in 1900.
I couldn't find any refernces to the April Fool Mine.
