About Mary Emma Handley

Gail wrote Aug 7 1998: I received the nicest letter on my Hanley family from a man at the Cabell County, West Virginia Historical Society. They sent me relevant pages from a publication called "The Handley/Handly/Hanley Collections. He was a descendant of John and Mary (Harrison) Handley, and wrote a great letter about her. Anyway, it didn't illuminate how Mary was related to the President William Henry Harrison, nor of the Declaration of Independence signer, Benjamin Harrison, but said "according to family data, she was a relative of ..." the above. She was killed by a team of runaway oxen which she tried to stop and drive into the barnyard gate. She is buried in the Guyandotte Cemetery near Huntington, where she had gone to make her home with her son Isaac, after her husband's death. Had 12 children, and I do have a list of them. She was born 1745 and died 4 Dec 1829.
