Manor, Sam Houston

He once lived in Millers, Nevada during the early 1900's and worked for the Tonopah & Goldfield Rail Road.  His nickname of Barney Oldfield was given to him because he had a heavy foot while driving.  As of February 1980, Manor was living at Hawthron and Round Mountain at 90 years old.
