Research Notes
According to the notes on Joseph Riley's profile he married Alice Clack, not Alice Astall. There is a possible alternate marriage for Alice on an Ancestry public tree. This gives her husband as Edmund King and their marriage date as 8 Dec 1852 at St Peter's Eastern Hill, Melbourne, Victoria. More Australian research is needed to verify the correct marriage for Alice. Hughes-14320 11:40, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
