2065	Teacher - Riley continues teaching after moving to Illinois ca. 1855 as chronicled in The Illinois Teacher. In Vol. III - 1857, he recounts his struggle to become a teacher and presents his philosophy of teaching in three letters or "Experiences" to the editor. In Experience II we see Riley sharing with his Illinois colleagues his approach to teaching the alphabet from his 1853 letter to the Pennsylvania School Journal. Vol. IV - 1858 includes an encounter between a state agent of the Illinois Education Association, Riley and his students at the Sabbath-School Celebration in Rushville, IL where Riley is described as "long a teacher of this village" and the children as "brimming over with happiness." In Vol. V - 1859, Riley is Secretary of the Schuyler County Teachers' Institute, when some historic issues are resolved. See the following excerpts The Illinois Teacher for details.	HOSKINSON, Riley M (I249)

2077	The Botts children are presumably Rufus' children by a first wife before Jane Fisher The first wife must have died after 1841 given Polly Botts age of 9 years. Rufus married Jane circa 1850 after the death of her first husband Joseph Higgs who died sometime after 1846. The Higgs children are of course Jane and Joseph's.	BOTTS, Rufus (I245)

2087	The pioneer history records the coming of not a few brave men who had seen service in the Colonial Army during the Revolution, and to whom many of the citizens of today trace their lineage. By the time of the second war with England, that territory now comprising Lawrence County had made rapid strides in its development, and was populated by a hardy class whose patriotism carried many to the front. Others were drafted into the service. Two companies were raised in the vicinity of New Castle, one captained by John Fisher and the other by James Hamilton, and were rendezvoused at Mercer. The service of the men from this community was in various companies and brigades, and their course during the war can not be followed. Some were called to Erie at different periods during the war, a number of them going as often as three times. A portion of them were with General Cook's Brigade, which went from Pittsburg in the fall of 1812, and joined General Harrison's Army on the Sandusky and Miami Rivers, in Ohio.	FISHER John (I215)

2095	This census indicates Ellen born in 1850 v 1852 or 1854 in other censuses and documents Attending school	PECK Ellen Estelle (I188)
2096	This census is hard to sort. Male 40-50 is certainly husband Thomas. Female 30-40 is Elizabeth. They married in 1838. The kids are all from Thomas' previous marriage to Marry Kells. Male 5-10 is son John K. Male 20-30 is unknown. Could be William N. but he is found in 1850 and 1860 censuses back east and serves in a PA regiment during the Civil war before later moving to Kansas. One of the females 5-10 is Margaret the other known. The two females 10-15 are Sarah and Mary. All three of these girls are known to have moved to IL as they were later married in IL. They would have also likely been too young for Thomas to leave behind in Pennsylvania when he moved to IL. Next oldest daughters Clarissa and Nancy are known to have stayed in Pennsylvania as they marry there and feature in various census until ca 1860.	BROWN Elizabeth (I62)
2097	This census is hard to sort. Male 40-50 is certainly Thomas. Female 30-40 his wife Elizabeth Brown who he married in 1838. Male 5-10 is son John K. Male 20-30 is unknown. Could be William N. but he is found in 1850 and 1860 censuses back east and serves in a PA regiment during the Civil war before later moving to Kansas. One of the females 5-10 is Margaret the other is unknown. The two females 10-15 are Sarah and Mary. All three of these girls are known to have moved to IL as they were later married in IL. They would have also likely been too young for Thomas to leave behind in Pennsylvania when he moved to IL. Next oldest daughters Clarissa and Nancy are known to have stayed in Pennsylvania where they marry and feature in various census after 1840.	FISHER Thomas (I115)
2098	This census lists one "Free White Female" living with Thomas Fisher, presumably Prudence, Thomas' wife.	SHAW, Prudence (I203)
2099	This census lists two "Free White Males Under 16" living with Mathias Fisher, one is presumably son John Fisher, aged about 4 years, the other son Abel Fisher, aged about 2 years.	FISHER Abel (I211)
2100	This census very hard to read due to poor image quality. The fourth name in listing of Hoskinsons is especially difficult but could read Stewart which would fit with the 1887 Washington State census entry where it looks like Stewart also appears. Regarding occupations and birth places, the census taker appears to skipped an earlier line resulting in items being misaligned with the Hoskinson names. I have corrected the error in this listing.	HOSKINSON, Riley M (I249)
