Hello Hackstaple,
I am researching Charles Riley, whom I believe to my great-grandfather. What I can't find is his birth on Saint Helena Island around the right date, but I did find a John Charles Riley born on St Helena on 16 February 1857, and wondered if you knew if this was the husband of Alice Frances Butler? If so, later in life it would seem he started using Charles as his first name.
