Ina letter from Lelia Conley, she tells me
that my grandfather, Renza Conley had a brother by the name of Thomas Conley,
making two Thomas Conleys. Thats why I ( Lenore ) always desided
that my ( Lenores ) Dad
was Thomas Hartford Conley. My ( Cecil's
) grandmother Sophia Conley, (After her hushands death) married a Tom Smith.
My grandmother had 4 sisters, Lola,Abigale, Anna and Della. Lola
Blakesley (Maiden Name - Mother of Gertude Cook ) married Frank Rose, Abigale
married Dwellie Conley, Anna married George Conley, Della married Marion
Conley. These three sisters married these three Conley Brothers.
She says all the Conleys were related to her husband. One of the
Conley Brother's sister married Addy Ruby of Diagonal, Iowa, making the
Ruby's In-Laws, but the children of the Conley girl and her husband, Addy
Ruby, were my, ( Cecil's )
blood relation through the Conley bond.
All the others are only "grage-vine" people but were like a great big family.
Lelia says that my ( Cecil's ) father and here husband ( Clyde LeRoy Conly
) were cousins. Lola Rose and Abigale Conley are buried at Creation,
Iowa. There were so many relatives of the Conleys, Blakeskeys and
Rubys they held
