General Notes: Husband - Isaac Riley


He was a native of county Armagh, Ireland, grew to manhood in his native land, and afterwards immigrated to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where he found employment in an iron mill. He followed the occupation of heater for some years, but about 1864 he purchased a farm in Forward township, upon which his son Samuel later resided, which he cleared and improved.
In early life he was a Presbyterian, but after coming to Butler County he united with the Methodist Episcopal church, of Forward township, and was a trustee in that body. He was first a Whig, and later a Republican.

The children of his first marriage came with their father to Pittsburgh, PA.
