ROLAND KEITHLEY was born in May of 1791. He married twice. He came to the "Territory of Missouri" in 1816 and remained in now St. Charles Co. two years, then moved to now Pike Co. Mo. Later he made a permanent home in a beautiful valley in Ralls Co. There he married Miss Hhohony [sic]. Children: (1) James, (2) Mrs. Mosley, and (3) Mrs. St. Clair. J. C. K. wrote of him: "When I visited him in 1846 he looked like a typical Keithley, short, heavy set, broad and weighing 200 lbs. He was noted for his silence; for he scarcely ever spoke unless asked a question and then gave a short laconic answer. A friend told this anecdote: He called to see him and stayed all night. Uncle Roland gave him a chair and said nothing more until bed time. He then asked him to take off his overcoat. He was benevolent, for he took care of his father-in-law in his old age and provided for his comfort. He lived and died in the same house that he built at his first settlement, a long log house boarded with plank but not painted.
