She married John RILEY and is listed in the 1850 Jefferson Twnshp., Elkhart County, IN census. The census record shows she had a child at that time named Sarah J. Riley age 7 born in IN. John T.

The will shows that Cynthia Riley was 59 years of age and resided in Circleville, Jackson County, KS. Who was Cynthia Wilson Riley's mother? When did Cynthia marry John Riley? Did she have any other children? When did she die? Any information is greatly appreciated.
