From the History of Shiawassee County and New Haven Township:
Patrick Riley came from Flint to this township in 1857, having purchased eighty acres on section 24. He remained with Jesse D. Hanford on section 26 while building, and immediately after began chopping. A clearing of ten acres was the result of his first year's labor. In the spring a fine crop covered this land. He has been successful in his farming pursuits, and now has two hundred acres on section 26 and eighty on an adjoining section. Edward Murray came at the same time as his friend Riley.
Patrick Riley, came from Ireland and made it to Flint, MI. Two years later he purchased land in New Haven township for $5 per acre, moving there when most of the residents were Indians.
1859 Patrick Riley is listed as a Civil Constable (Civil Peace Officer) elected to the Township of New Haven.
