They moved to a second Clark farm, then to Dickeron and Goode Shelton's farm and finally to the Joyce farm. They then moved to the State of North Carolina, to Job's farm in Julian, North Carolina, to Wade's farm, to Fogleman's farm, and last to Garrett's farm in Julian. Their children were very upset when the move away from the State of Virginia was made.¹ His Social Security Number was 246-56-9851.⁴ He In 1915 Riley was an avid baseball player and a member of the Big A Baseball Team of Patrick Springs, Patrick Co., Virginia.

Riley and oldest son, Brooks, bought farms there and Riley lived in the old Coble house. Brooks farm adjoined Riley's. Walter Garrett ran the Bob White Plantation and later Riley bought the Garrett house on a hill top in Julian. Alton rented the farm from Riley at this time and later bought it. Reilly's wife Amanda died of cancer. He had 13 children in all by Amanda, two not living to adulthood. He had no children by Nannie Rodgers. Alton Clyde Jr and Brooks took over the family farm in Juliian and Andrew bought an adjoining farm in 1946. Tom, Aaron, John, and Andrew all served in WWII. After the war they all move to Martinsville, Virginia and joined brother Benton as cab drivers. Andrew moved back to the country in North Carolina to farm but the other 3 brothers stayed.
