I am trying to find and information regarding relatives of three Riley brothers.
William Thomas Riley (dob) 26.02.1865
Albert John Riley (dob) 05.04.1869 (My great grandfather)
Harry E Riley (dob) 07.10.1871
I believe they were all born in the Battersea / Chelsea area.

Albert John Riley married a lady called Catherine Halfpenny. She was born c.1866 in Horton Salop.

Albert and Catherine went on to have at least five children.
Albert S Riley - born c1895 in Battersea
William J Riley - born c1896 in Battersea
Catherine Riley - born c1898 in Battersea
Ellen Nora Riley - born 1901 (My grandmother)
Frank Riley - after 1901

2 more children have now shown up on the 1911 census
Arthur Edgar Riley - born c1905
Edith Florence Riley - born c1908

I believe that one of the sons moved to Australia along with their immediate family

If any of these names and dates match any of your relations please get in touch. Thank you.
