It wasn't Isaac Meneley but Lucas Meneley Instead. edit

This story talks about Isaac Meneley but it was actually Lucas Meneley (1821-1889) and wife Mary Rebecca Evertson (1833-1903): https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/KJPV-WJ6 Lucas's father (Joseph B. Meneley) dies and Lucas takes responsibility for the welfare of his mother and becomes her chief support. His father Joseph built or acquired a sawmill in 1837, on the Vermilion River close to the town of what was then Potomac. 2601:1C0:4680:250:D01A:9A07:91E4:5828 (talk) 12:57, 11 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
