General Notes: Husband - Michael Christley

---

He was born in Westmoreland county, Pennsylvania, and came to Mercer county with his parents in childhood. He attended the pioneer schools of his vicinity for a short period, but in after years he acquired by observation and reading a wide knowl­edge of men and books. He was familiarly known as “Uncle Mike” Christley, and highly respected for his upright character and strict integrity. About 1823 he settled upon 100 acres of land in Slippery Rock township, Butler county, pur­chased by his father, adjoining his brother John's farm. This he cleared and improved, and continued to follow agricultural pursuits until his death. His son Neyman later resided on the old homestead. In politics, he was an ardent Republican, and during slavery days was a strong Abolitionist. He was one of the original members of the Methodist Episcopal church of Centreville, and filled the offices of steward, trustee and class leader.
