Is anyone else researching KELLER surname in Jackson County IN?
My gg grandfather Riley KELLER was born 29 December 1811 NC.
The first mention of Riley is when he voluntered for the Black Hawk War
1832-33 at Charlestown, IN Clark County. The next mention of him is when he
married Harriet Miller b. 06 July 1814 Clark County, IN. They had 8
children that was born in Jackson County IN:
Nancy Catharine b. 06 April 1836
Mary Ann b. 06 November 1838
William Alexander b. 02 January 1840
John Martin b. 23 February1842
Eliza Carolina b. 02 February 1844
Harriet Elizabeth b. 05 February 1846
Jacob Riley b. 29 February 1848
Juda Charlotte b. 27 January 1850
The 4 other were born in Cumberland County, Illinois
George Washington b. 23 January 1852
Benjamin Franklin b. 25 March 1854
Andrew Jackson b. 04 May 1856
Aaron Douglas b. 19 October 1861
This information was from the Pension Papers that Harriet filed for after
Riley KELLER death. I do have more information of the families of the
children.
Who was Riley KELLER parents and were there brothers and sisters? Would
appreciate any help. Thank you.
