The first recorded spelling of the surname of Riley can be found within the country of England. One person, who was recorded to be named as one John de Ryeley was mentioned in the Court Rolls of the Manor of Wakefield, which is located in Yorkshire, in the year of 1284. This document was ordered, decreed, and written under the reign of one King Edward I, who was known as both “Longshanks,” and “The Hammer of the Scots.” He was such named for the wars and conquests that he waged on the country of Scotland throughout his reign, which lasted from the year of 1272 to the year of 1307.
