General Notes: Husband - Matthew Henley


He followed his father's trade of a butcher, continuing until the year 1841, when he came to America. He settled at first in Ohio, but later on, he came into Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, and located in the western part of Mahoning township. He purchased the farm of 117 acres from William Strain, which was later owned by John Henley. It was but little improved when he took possession, but the soil was of the very best, and it was comparatively level. The fine orchard on the place grew from apple-seeds which he brought from England and planted himself. He died there on this farm four years after he had located on it at the age of fifty-one.


General Notes: Wife - Elizabeth Morgan


She lived to the age of sixty-five.
