D.Lee,
These two Riley's are possibly not the same person but could be 2nd cousinS (?) or related.
The name John was used alot during that time and I have found in the 1800's where some cousins, 2nd , distant would have exactly the same name first name.
Even1st cousins could have the same names with different middle names possibly.
I have no idea what county in Irelandmy descendant John Riley wasfrom.Maybe your bit of information could help my search.Let's hope.
These are the name of the children of John Riley, my descendant, who I was told was born in 1716 in Ireland.
*Note 5th child- WILLIAM GEORGE RILEY* "My Descendant"
1)Zachariah Riley -born in Ireland? U.S. maybe (Virginia?)
2)Jeremiah Riley- born in Ireland? U.S. maybe (Virginia?)
3)Abraham Riley-born in Ireland?U.s. maybe (Virginia?)
4)Hezekiah Riley-born in Ireland? U.S. ""
**5)My descendant-WILLIAM GEORGE RILEY- BORN 1737 IN VIRGINIA DIED 1816 SOUTH CAROLINA
