Rachel H. (Gary) Haley (1816-1897)

Rachel H. (GARY) HALEY (1816-1897) was my paternal 3rd-great grandmother.  The origins of this GARY line have not been determined, although a county history stated that her father was from Ireland.

The following facts about Rachel's life are known:

• Birth: She was born March 25, 1816 in Fairfield County, Ohio. The "Biographical and Historical Record of Jay County, Indiana" (1887) states that her father was from Ireland.
• Marriage: She married George J. HALEY on January 1, 1835 in Hardin County, Ohio.
• Census: 1860 - She appears in the George HALEY household of Claridon Township, Marion County, Ohio
• Census: 1870 - She appears in the George HALEY household of Huron Township, Erie County, Ohio
• Death: She died November 25, 1897 in Erie County, Ohio.
• Burial: She is buried at the Scotts Cemetery, Huron, Erie County, Ohio

The following facts need further research and/or documentation to complete my research:

• Census: 1850 - Need to locate her in the 1850 census, she should be in the George HALEY family of Marion County, Ohio
• Census: 1880 - Need to locate her in the 1880 census, she should be in the George HALEY family of Erie County, Ohio
• Death: Need to obtain a copy of her death certificate from local or state offices
• Obituary: Need to locate a copy of her obituary in the local newspaper.
