Cyrus Hawley was united in marriage Louisville, KY, with Miss Martha Wilson, of Pittsburgh, the wedding ceremony being performed on the 21st of September, 1836.
The young people began their domestic life in that southern city, where they remained until 1840, at which time they determined to cast their lot with the pioneers of Iowa, and boarded a vessel which carried them to their destination. In the month of September, 1850, Mr. Hawley was called upon to mourn the loss of his wife. Seven children were born of their union :
1 Theodocia died in infancy in Louisville, Ky;
2 Ellen M., was born in Louisville, Dec. 5. 1839, and married F. E. Humphreys, and now resides in Mason City, Iowa;
