I'm seeking information on Jane Ely born 1826 in Kent Co., England and died 1887 in Lincoln Township, Mitchell County, Iowa. She married George B. Cheney 1849 in England. George was born 1826 in Kent Co., England and died 1906 in Lincoln Township, Mitchell County, Iowa. They had the following children: 1) William M. born 1852 England; died 1917 Iowa. 2) George W. born 1852 England; died 1921 Iowa. 3) Charles L. born 1854 NY. 4) John H. 5) Julia 6) Alice born 1861 Iowa. 7) Thomas J. born 1862 Iowa. 8) Mary J. born 1864 Iowa. 9) Albert E. born 1865 Iowa. 10) Dora born 1868 Iowa.

George and Jane Cheney came to America about 1853 and resided the first four years in Livingston Co., NY, then one year in Knox County, Illinos, then to Fremont Co., Iowa. In 1862, they moved to Lester Township, Black Hawk Co., Iowa. In 1869, they moved to Lincoln Township, Mitchell County, Iowa.

I am a descendant thru their son William H. Cheney married to Aploe(Agloa) Rivers. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
