Summary
Margaret A. (Riorden) Hanley (1905–1999) was named in a May 1960 report about a broken left leg and a possible return to teaching.
Evidence and limits
Local reports consistently identify her as Mrs. J. C. Hanley and mother of Jerry and Terry; the cemetery register gives her maiden name and lifespan. The notices do not establish her school, treatment, or recovery.
