Dear Barbara, I'm afraid I don't know who Hannah's parents were, but I do have some info on the Wiley family. this comes from "History of Lawndale, Martin, and Anchor Townships and the Villages of Colfax and Anchor" by Muriel Martens Hoffman. My information differs from yours a little. William Wiley, was born in Wales about 1745, arrived in either Maryland or North Carolina, married Hannah Sampson and raised a family of 6 children. About 1810, he moved his family to Garrard Co., KY where he remained the rest of his life. In the summer of 1817, John Royston, his youngest child, moved to Switzerland Co., IN. After living 18 years in IN, John Royston Wiley moved to what is now Martin Twp., McLean Co. They entered land on either side of the Mackinaw timber with the father, John R. Wiley farming the south side and the sons, William, Lytle R. and Silas farming the north side. Of the Wiley brothers who came to IL with their father, John R. Wiley, in the fall of 1835, William was the oldest. William married Nancy Hopkins and they were the parents of 8 children: John S. married Missouri Arnold; Robert died in 1864 of measles just 6 months after enlisting in the army; Joseph S. married Melissa Henline; William R, a Methodist minister married Gertrude Arnold; James S. married Harriet Dennis; Amelia married Stephen Smith; and Nancy Elizabeth married Lemuel Fincham. One daughter died in infancy. Lytle Royston was the next oldest. He travelled back to Switzerland Co. in 1843 and chose Sarah Royston Wiley, his cousin and daughter of Thomas Wiley, for his wife. Their children were: Dr. Thomas R. Wiley of Gibson City, IL who married Mattie Reeves; Rhoda, a school teacher who married Alex Gillan; John James who married Sarah Rina Harpole; Hannah, who married Almarion Hutson; William Sampson who died at age 25; Sarah, who married Henry C. Henline; Lytle R. who married Mary Emma Harpole, and Cassandra who married William Hutson. James R. Wiley, the third son of John Royston Wiley, married Sarah Lineback and they had 2 children. Hannah (Ogden) and John R. who was killed at the age of 16, when he fell from a horse. John Royston Wiley, who ventured into Illinois and was the first to settle in what is now Martin Township along with his family, cleared the way and had a responsible contribution to the development of this area. -- Pamela Haithcock McLean County Illinois Heritage http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~henline Bits and Pieces of McLean County http://members.tripod.com/~GenFamily/index.html
