FIELDS OF GOLD trivia: It was never scripted for Vader the dog to be in “Fields of Gold”, but she wandered onto the set during filming and was quite a natural at being in front of everyone. Staley boys have had dogs as pets, in particular black labs, for more than 100 years. You can see our documentary “Fields of Gold” about the life of A. E. Staley streaming now on Prime Video, Tubi, and You Tube. Produced in partnership with the Decatur Herald & Review and The Staley Museum.

“Fields of Gold” produced in partnership with the Decatur Herald & Review is streaming now on Prime Video, Tubi, and You Tube. Here, the actors who portray young A. E. (Gene) Staley and his brother and Arthur Staley are the great-great-grandsons of A. E. Staley, Alex Staley and Lucas Staley. The film location was a farm in Illinois that still grows corn and beans just as young Gene and Arthur did in North Carolina in the late 1800’s. Gene and Arthur’s father died when Gene was 18, leaving it up to the boys to take care of the family. Find out more from our documentary or at The Staley Museum.
