Hi Chris The only thing I can find is the St Columba's Estate 1200 hectares of land originally granted to William Lawson and later owned by Sir Henry Parks. It was bought in 1910 and the St Columba's Seminary was built in the Blue Mountains at Springwood. It might be an idea to contact the Blue Mountains Library or Family history centre they might have some information. Going by Google map Flagstone / Cookamidgera is not that far from Parks so The marriage might have only been registered at Parks. What are the names of the Children?

I have been unable to find when he came to Australia and were he died. The only real information I have is that he married my Great Grandmother. I have a copy of the Certificate but even that doesn't help because it doesn't have Place of Birth or Age or Parents names. And the Church that it has they were married at was never in Parkes. These are the details Date: 2 June 1892 Place of Marriage: Parkes, Names of Parties: James Rieley (should read Riley) Ellen Byrnes,
