1850 - Lima, Rock, Wisconsin 1860 as Nancy Umphrey, Ironton, maiden name Donnelly, lives in line with Patrick Donnelly, Patirick Sinnott (h/o Rose Donnelly), William Donnelly, Dennis Clossey (h/o Mary Donnelly) and the widow of Edmund Donnelly, Mary Donnelly Hill 1870 Ironton with children 1880 - widow, lives next door to sister Mary copy of bap. on file - original at Glasgow St Mary's. Could not find marriage record for parents. Should be noted they probably were married just before marriage in a non-conformist church became legal. Construction for the church began about 1807 and finished in 1817. Three Donnely men there named their first daughter Nancy. Since it was common for the Irish to name the first daughter for her grandmother, they may be brothers to Edmund and Felix. Donnely's married at St Andrews just after the law was changed were noted as being from County Tyrone. The History of Sauk County, Wisconsin Publisher: Western Historical Co. (Chicago), 1880 Of the settlers of 1850 few names appear with more prominence in the annals of pioneering than that of HUMPHRY. The pioneer, George HUMPHRY, was born in Yorkshire, England, and at the age of eighteen came to America (1840). In 1845 he was married to Nancy DONLEY, daughter of Felix and Catharine (McGREGOR) DONLEY, the lady being a native of Glasgow, Scotland. Upon their marriage they came to Whitewater, Wis., and resided there until 1850, when they settled in Ironton. To Mr. and Mrs. HUMPHRY were born seven children: William, Isabella, Mary, George, who married Miss D. EVANS, and lived for many years in Ironton, Nelson, Esmeralda, later Mrs. L. N. LaRUE, of Ironton, and Catharine. After the death of her husband at an early date, the widow engaged in hop-growing, and the HUMPHRY Seedling was the result of her propagation. "Hops are so strictly a local crop, and the literature on the subject is so limited, that the question of varieties is not in a satisfactory condition. Individual plants vary, and a rigid selection is not practiced. However, three or four distinct types are recognized in New York. The most usual and desirable is English Cluster, in which the hops are rather small and are borne in compact clusters on rather short, branched laterals. Pompey is perhaps a local name for a type in which the hops are much larger and more four-sided, with a tendency to be borne more scattering or singly. These two forms merge into each other. Humphrey Seedling is a variety maturing ten days earlier than the standard sorts, valuable chiefly to those persons having a larger area than can be harvested in the regular season. Canada or Canada Red is a name given to a late, hardy, rough-vined sort. There is no doubt that careful, systematic selection would do much to improve the vigor and desirable characters of the strains now grown."
