Biographical Notes |
Note: From Hardesty's History of Gallia County 1882: "Mrs. Nancy Riley, of Greenup county, Indiana, was born February 20, 1778. She had a distinct recollection of seeing Washington and some of the generals of the revolutionay war. It was a rare treat to hear her relate her early recollections of Indian wars."
This was written at the end of a biographical piece about Brice H. Smith and his wife Nancy Dickey whose grandmother was Nancy Riley.
