2nd wife of James Hamilton Riley (son of Patrick) - NOT James Riley (son of Isaac)

Her mother Is unsourced but seen as both Nancy & Christina. Not a question likely to be answered easily, but the father seems good.

Thanks, Erica. I thought it was a mighty stretch for a man born in 1725 to marry a woman born in 1798. May I now disconnect Delilah from James Riley 1725?

Think I did that. I was going up the Roark side, and pretty sure it’s a different Roark line from mine, which Is interesting. May help clarify Gibson / Gipsons.
