I believe that Thomas Foley was my maternal grandmother's grandfather and I would be interested to discover more about his life.  I believe his mother remarried.  My grandmother's name was Emma Selina Foley and she married an Alfred John Hunter, together they had 13 children and I am one of their grandchildren.
