My comments.
 
This file was quite large, but the handwriting was terrible.  There  was a
certificate of marriage for David and Catharine Jones.
 
I found David and Mary in the 1900 Census.  She was born in April 1841  in
West Virginia and David was born August 1842 in Illinois.  They had a  grandson
Charles D., born January 1890 listed with them at the time.
 
In the 1880 census I found David 37, IL; Catherine 36, OH; Charles 14, IL;
Louisa 12, IL; & Mary F. 6, IL.
 
Both 1880 and 1900 census were in Stanford, Clay Co., Illinois

I found a marriage of a Mary E. Hutton Cook to David Riley on June 22, 1884
in Clay Co.  Perhaps her maiden name was Hutton.  I didn't find a  Hutton
marriage to a Coil though.
