Here is the 1860 census that shows Sanford living in Belle Plaine with his wife, four children, three servants and three farm laborers. His occupation is listed as Hotel Keeper. "Value of Real Estate" is $2300 and "Value of Personal Estate" is $5000. Using the "nominal GDP per capita" measurement, this $7300 in 1860 would be worth $2,419,911.31 today.
