Daniel Riner, an American Pioneer 
1796-1885 
Virginia to Indiana to Illinois to Kansas
When I was a girl, my grandmother Hazel Lewis Parsons told me stories of her family’s 
pioneer days in Kansas. Hazel, born in 1895, was the second to youngest daughter of 
Calvin and Belle Hunt Lewis, themselves children of pioneers. All my childhood, in my 
imagination I walked the streets of Burr Oak and the roads of Jewell County as my 
grandmother told and retold the family stories. Hazel’s lifetime spanned Conestoga 
wagons to space rockets, 1895-1993. But, though she filled my mind and heart with 
the Kansas of her youth, I realized the thread of the family journey had been lost. 
One summer afternoon in 2001, I decided to clean the upstairs closets, repository of 
old clothing from college, Christmas ornaments, boxes saved from my mother’s files, 
more recent old clothing, and odd items. Hauling several cardboard boxes of my 
mother’s papers out into the room, I began sorting and reading. I knew before I 
started that I would throw none of these things away, but perhaps I could organize 
and sort. Half way through the second box, I found a large manila envelope with a 
return address from my deceased great aunt Mattie Lewis Grubbs who lived in Burr 
Oak, Kansas, dated 1974. Wondering what my mother had saved from 25 years ago, I 
gingerly drew out five large sheets of cardboard, pasted front and back with yellowed 
obituaries, old poems, and old sayings.
Puzzled, I read through some of the names; only one was familiar, “Grubbs,” my 
great-aunt’s married name. The afternoon sun streamed through the west window, 
the room was quiet, waiting, as I stared at this unexpected look into the past. 
Scanning the dates, I saw that all these people had been dead for over a century. In 
the middle of one page was an obituary for “Father Riner,” who was born in 
Virginia in 1796 and died in Kansas in 1885. Down in the corner of the right side 
was an obituary for “Mary Riner Clayton,” who died in 1889. Riner, Riner…..who 
were these people? The answer hovered at the edge of my consciousness. 
I walked downstairs and pulled boxes of pictures from the bedroom closet, 
rummaging until I found the 1992 Kansas trip pictures. My mother had taken me to 
the Burr Oak Cemetery and had shown me her grandmother’s grave, as well as her 
great-grandmother’s nearby. And I had taken pictures of the gravestones. There it 
was, “Mary Riner Clayton,” 1838-1889. Picking up the picture, I ran back upstairs to 
the cardboard sheets. Stunned, I saw in front of me the yellowed obituaries of my 
grandmother’s grandmother and my great- great-grandmother’s father. Six 
generations. Unknown. Unnamed. Their story untold.
Daniel Riner’s Obituary: 1796-1885
Daniel Riner's Story
Father Riner’s obituary 
• Died---At the home of his son-in-law, R. R. Skeels, four miles southwest of Burr Oak, on May 
5th, 1885, Daniel Riner, aged 88 years, 6 months, and 26 days. 
• Father Riner was born in Berkley County, Virginia, October 19, 1796. He married December 
31, 1826 to Miss May Starry. In 1829 he moved from Virginia to Indiana where he resided 
until 1850, when he moved to Illinois. There on November 8, 1862, his wife died. On May 11, 
1863 he was married to Miss Rhoda Starry, who died May 11, 1867. In the spring of 1883, he 
came to Kansas, and lived here with his children until his death. He leaves five children. 
William Riner, Mrs. Jesse Drake, Mrs. Cyrus Pangborn, Mrs. R.R. Skeels, of Burr Oak, and Mrs. 
William (sic--Benjamin) Clayton of Yates Center, Kansas; four children having preceded him to 
the better land. He embraced religion in early life, ever true to his convictions, possessed of 
practical business sagacity and unbending integrity, performing all his duties with 
promptness, efficiency, and faithfulness. As long as his health permitted, he was regular in his 
attendance at church and always a liberal supporter of the Gospel and every good enterprise. 
To his family he was devoted, doing all he could to promote their happiness, not only in this 
life, but in the next. 
• His funeral took place at the M. E. Church in that place on Wednesday, May 6th at 2:00 p.m., 
and was largely attended. On Thursday, surviving relatives started with his remains for 
Onarga, Illinois, where they will be laid to rest beside his wife.

Daniel Riner's Story
Daniel Riner's Story
Daniel & Mary Starry 
Riner migrated to 
Indiana in 1828. They 
accompanied her 
parents, Daniel & 
Hannah Smith Starry, 
and her younger four 
brothers and four 
sisters. The Starry 
family settled near 
Marshfield in Steuben 
Township [X], while the 
Riner land was in 
Mound Township [->].
Daniel & Mary Riner 
homestead in Warren 
County in 1828, until 
leaving in 1850. They 
lived in Mound 
Township [blue 
circle], while her 
parents, the Starrys, 
and siblings lived in 
Steuben Township 
[red circle]. Due to 
their land patents 
being so close to the 
Wabash River, it is 
probable that they 
traveled west on the 
Ohio River from 
Virginia and then 
north on the Wabash 
River.

was the grandmother of Liannia Victorine, who did much 
of the Riner research and kindly shared stacks of 
information with me.

Daniel Riner's Story

  • 1. Daniel Riner, an American Pioneer 1796-1885 Virginia to Indiana to Illinois to Kansas
  • 2. When I was a girl, my grandmother Hazel Lewis Parsons told me stories of her family’s pioneer days in Kansas. Hazel, born in 1895, was the second to youngest daughter of Calvin and Belle Hunt Lewis, themselves children of pioneers. All my childhood, in my imagination I walked the streets of Burr Oak and the roads of Jewell County as my grandmother told and retold the family stories. Hazel’s lifetime spanned Conestoga wagons to space rockets, 1895-1993. But, though she filled my mind and heart with the Kansas of her youth, I realized the thread of the family journey had been lost. One summer afternoon in 2001, I decided to clean the upstairs closets, repository of old clothing from college, Christmas ornaments, boxes saved from my mother’s files, more recent old clothing, and odd items. Hauling several cardboard boxes of my mother’s papers out into the room, I began sorting and reading. I knew before I started that I would throw none of these things away, but perhaps I could organize and sort. Half way through the second box, I found a large manila envelope with a return address from my deceased great aunt Mattie Lewis Grubbs who lived in Burr Oak, Kansas, dated 1974. Wondering what my mother had saved from 25 years ago, I gingerly drew out five large sheets of cardboard, pasted front and back with yellowed obituaries, old poems, and old sayings.
  • 3. Puzzled, I read through some of the names; only one was familiar, “Grubbs,” my great-aunt’s married name. The afternoon sun streamed through the west window, the room was quiet, waiting, as I stared at this unexpected look into the past. Scanning the dates, I saw that all these people had been dead for over a century. In the middle of one page was an obituary for “Father Riner,” who was born in Virginia in 1796 and died in Kansas in 1885. Down in the corner of the right side was an obituary for “Mary Riner Clayton,” who died in 1889. Riner, Riner…..who were these people? The answer hovered at the edge of my consciousness. I walked downstairs and pulled boxes of pictures from the bedroom closet, rummaging until I found the 1992 Kansas trip pictures. My mother had taken me to the Burr Oak Cemetery and had shown me her grandmother’s grave, as well as her great-grandmother’s nearby. And I had taken pictures of the gravestones. There it was, “Mary Riner Clayton,” 1838-1889. Picking up the picture, I ran back upstairs to the cardboard sheets. Stunned, I saw in front of me the yellowed obituaries of my grandmother’s grandmother and my great- great-grandmother’s father. Six generations. Unknown. Unnamed. Their story untold.
  • 6. Father Riner’s obituary • Died---At the home of his son-in-law, R. R. Skeels, four miles southwest of Burr Oak, on May 5th, 1885, Daniel Riner, aged 88 years, 6 months, and 26 days. • Father Riner was born in Berkley County, Virginia, October 19, 1796. He married December 31, 1826 to Miss May Starry. In 1829 he moved from Virginia to Indiana where he resided until 1850, when he moved to Illinois. There on November 8, 1862, his wife died. On May 11, 1863 he was married to Miss Rhoda Starry, who died May 11, 1867. In the spring of 1883, he came to Kansas, and lived here with his children until his death. He leaves five children. William Riner, Mrs. Jesse Drake, Mrs. Cyrus Pangborn, Mrs. R.R. Skeels, of Burr Oak, and Mrs. William (sic--Benjamin) Clayton of Yates Center, Kansas; four children having preceded him to the better land. He embraced religion in early life, ever true to his convictions, possessed of practical business sagacity and unbending integrity, performing all his duties with promptness, efficiency, and faithfulness. As long as his health permitted, he was regular in his attendance at church and always a liberal supporter of the Gospel and every good enterprise. To his family he was devoted, doing all he could to promote their happiness, not only in this life, but in the next. • His funeral took place at the M. E. Church in that place on Wednesday, May 6th at 2:00 p.m., and was largely attended. On Thursday, surviving relatives started with his remains for Onarga, Illinois, where they will be laid to rest beside his wife.
