Hi,
I also recently sent a reply to Earl regarding the family bible and there has been no response. I have rec'd a copy of the History of Stony Creek and the only information I've been able to verify is that Oliver Riley or O'Riley was not Elkanah's wife Phebe's father as he did not have any female children on the 1800-1820 censuses. There definitely was a close connection as Elkanah gave him property that eventually was passed to his sons and let Oliver's wife live with them after his death...So either a close friend or possibly a grandparent...I have the Warren County historical society doing some research and am waiting impatiently.
Sorry I could not be of more help. I hope there is someone out there that can help us with this brick wall.
Dee
