his sister Mary Franks' findagrave page, already posted, says she was the daughter of Patrick and Mary Hunt Riley


-------------
I think "married, living separate from his wife" might explain the reason for the story that he got hit by a trolley and died. Easier than saying he just left.

parents' marriage, maybe
10 June 1877, R.C. chapel of Dunmore, Registrar's District: Dunmore, Tuam, Galway
Patrick Reiley, laborer, of Castlefaran, father Thomas, a land holder
Mary Hunt, spinster, of Carrowuseen ? father: Thady Hunt, deceased, a land holder
both of full age
wittnesses: Bridget Prendergast and Michael Mitchel

someone mentioned Tuam in connection with this family, I think. This is the only marriage of a Patrick Riley and Mary Hunt anywhere in Ireland from 1865 to 1892.
