Birth*15 September 1804 Susananna Smyth was born on 15 September 1804 at Murrinsville, Butler County, PA; Since the Ruffners came from Goshenhoppen where a church called "Sportsman's Hall was located which is now called St. Vincents near Latrobe in Westmoreland Co., PA it would seem logical to look there for deeds and wills for Smythe family. Obituary says Susan Smyth born in Butler Co., PA and lived there until she was six years old. Wimmer diary says she was born Sept 15 1804.3,4,2 
 She was the daughter of John Edward Smyth and Anna Margaret Ruffner.2 
MARRIAGE*4 November 1827 She married James B. Blakely, son of (?) Blakely and Sarah or Alice (?), on 4 November 1827 at Pittsburgh, PA; From SLB's "Reminiscenses" My grandfather James Blakely, married Susan Smythe. Her mother was Barbara Ruffner, whose father was Simon Ruffner. The Ruffners came to western Virginia in the 17th century from Mainz, Germany. I have hanging in my home a picture which tradition says they brought with them. It represents the sorrowful mother and is very delicately pieced together of colored paper and gold. (Note: in 1999 Laura Glass acquired this when John R. Blakely died she willed it to give it to Stephens B. Woodrough, Jr) I have heard that Simon Ruffner and his brothers, Christian and George in the year 1797, gave to Father Carroll, afterwards first Bishop in the United States, the first piece of property owned by the Church, west of the Allegheny Mountains. I have made no search for documentary evidence of this. (Note from MVW - in fact there is a huge amount of evidence for this fact.)
The Ruffner family is still numerous and prominent in West Virginia. Colonel Ernest Ruffner of the U. S. Engineers, was stationed in Cincinnati at the time of his death. His daughter. Violet, married Lewis DeBus, now dead. She lives in Cincinnati (1956). I see her occasionally and we recognize our relationship.3,4 
Death*12 November 1885  Obituary of Mrs. Susan BlakelyNov. 12, 1885
Thursday evening at six o’clock, after an illness of fourteen weeks, Mrs. Susan Blakely, wife of James Blakely, departed this life at the ripe age of 81 years. She had been in feeble health for sometime previous
to her late illness during which her sufferings were intense. She bore her afflictions with divine resignation. No word of complaint marred the beauty of her patient endurance. She was in a precarious
condition some weeks before her demise, and several times was thought to be dying, but her wonderful power of resistance proved effectual in warding off the approach of Death, and she was spared to her dear
ones for a little while longer, she was bravely cheerful from first to last. The purity and holiness of her life and character, are beyond expression, and her influence will ever be a beacon light to those who knew and loved her. She always had a gentle word and smile for one and all. When suffering most her submission to the will of God became but the greater. She was sustained by His hand which was waiting to help her over the dark river into the glory of eternal rest. When Death claimed her He left her sweetly fair, she seemed “not dead but sleeping.” The lifeless form lay in its ethereal and solemn loveliness. Her hands folded on her breast, her eyes closed as though in dreamless slumber, having no sign of the Destroyer’s hand, save in the hue that blanched the lips, on which a smile of holy calm lingered and a voiceless prayer hung suspended.
The funeral took place on Monday last at 9 o’clock A,M. from the German Catholic church. A large concourse of friends followed the remains. The solemn Requiem Mass was chanted by her son, Rev.
Aloysius Blakely, of the Passionist Monastery, with Rev. P. Cellestine, prior as Deacon, and Rev. P.severing, sub. Deacon, and Rev. P. Fideles, master of Ceremonies.Mrs. Blakely was born in Butler County on the 15th of Sep. 1804. In 1810 she, in company with her parents removed to Pittsburgh, where she resided until many years after her marriage, then she came to St. Marys, where she has resided since. Mrs. Blakely leaves to mourn her demise two sons and three daughters. Thus ends the spotless life of a truly good woman. May she rest in peace.By one who knew and loved her.From The Elk Co. Thurs. 19th 1885; "Early Phases of St. Mary's" states that Susan Blakely died in 1885 at age 81. Her illness and death are discussed at length in Sebastian Wimmer's diary housed at the St. Marys Historical Society.2 
Obituary13 November 1885 Obnituary of Susananna Smyth was (from newspaper article) "Mother died this evening," was the tenor of a dispatch received last evening by Mr. L. J. Blakely, announcing the death of his mother, at her late house in Maryland, at the ripe age of eighty-two. So has passed away to eternal peace a venerable woman, who, in all relations of life, daughter, wife and mother, was as perfect as is possible for aught of earth to be. It has been said and written of her during her life, in the words of the Psalmist; "She riseth also while it is yet night and giveth meat to her household and a portions to her maidens," for her first care was for the comfort of others than herself. Her whole life was one of faith, hope and love, and with her the greatest of all charity. All creeds and races shared in the benefactions her hands silently dispensed. For years possessed of ample means, she held them as part of the belongings of the poor, and on her head rested their blessings. She visited the sick and the dying; made smooth the path of the weary, and gave peace of the afflicted. She was married in 1827, with the venerable husband enjoying fifty-five years of wedded life up to his death in 1882, being happily permitted the great joy of a golden wedding on the 4th of November, 1877; and their joy on that occasion was heightened from the fact that it was before their own son, their youngest, Rev. A. M. Blakely, they renewed the vows of love and fidelity first made fifty years before. The deceased lady was all her life a pious, devout Catholic, and she passed to the better world surrounded by children and grand children and fortified with the sacraments of the Mother Church she loved so devotedly. All who came under her control, servants as well as children were the objects of her anxious solicitude and tender love. Her nature was firm but gentle. Not one of her children ever heard from her lips an angry of fretful word to her husband. Her example was edifying; and if reproof were necessary her children received if from her lips tempered with maternal affection. She came from a long line of honorable ancestry. Her family came to America in 1686, and settled in Delaware, or as it the was "the Counties of New Castle, Kent and Sussex on the Delaware." From thence the family spread through Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia. The family name was Ruffner. The deceased was the sixth generation. Of your charity pray for the repose of her soul. on 13 November 1885. 
Burial*16 November 1885 She was buried on 16 November 1885 at St. Marys Cemetery, St. Mary's, Elk County, PA; St. Marys Cemetery; Old Section E - Blakely lot. 
Name Variation  Susananna Smyth was also known as Susanne.2 
Married Name4 November 1827  As of 4 November 1827,her married name was Blakely.3,4 
CENSUS1850*1850 She appeared on the CENSUS in 1850. 
CENSUS1860*1 June 1860 She appeared on the census on 1 June 1860 at Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, PA; James is shown with personal property of $600. His daughter Susanna listed as a music teacher and his son Laurie as a clerk at age 17. The city directory gives the street address of 103 Elm. Elm Street is called Edmond in 2003. Evidently the family moved shortly after the census as a book about early St. Marys says that she moved there in 1860.5 
CENSUS1870*1 June 1870 She appeared on the census on 1 June 1870 at St. Mary's, Elk County, PA; There are two grown children i.e. Laurie listed as a lawyer with personal property of $400. and Susana with personal property of $4,000 living at home. They are probably there to look after aging parents.6
