CONLEY, CONLY, MEADOWS posted by Lyle LeMasters on Sunday, September 19, 1999
I am looking for information on Timothy Conley/Conly of Rockingham Co., VA. He is listed on the 1810 census living near David and John Conley and several Meadows families. Timothy Conley and wife Elizabeth ? are listed as the parents of Elizabeth Conley that married Jeremiah Isaac Meadows in Rockinham Co.,VA before 1790. Jacob Meadows was listed as the bondsman for the marriage. Timothy Conley was listed as a soldier for VA in the Rev. War. He may have been from Augusta Co.,VA. Any information on Timothy Conley or his possible sons David and John is appreciated. John Conley was listed in Rockinghma Co.,VA census up to at least 1840.
