Saint Santin Cantales would make sense as that is in Cantal department, and quite near the Siran in Cantal.

- there is indexed here, in 1856, a birth for Baptiste Hippolite Rieu, he being the son of Jean Baptiste Cyprien Rieu, farmer, aged 24, and Jeanne ??uel, his wife, aged 22.
If you look at the "Tables décennales" instead of searching by name, for Saint Santin Cantales, there are Rieu children, including
Jean, 27 Xbre 1869 (Xbre = December), son of Cyprien Rieu, aged 38, and wife Jeanne ?ruel (Truel? Bruel?)
However, I can't see a Marie Julia born to this family, at least not in Saint Santin Cantales, although there do seem to be some Marie Rieu births (though not in 1868), and I wonder if the online trees might have succumbed to a common problem which is the copying, from one tree to another, of information without double-checking sources.
If "Jean Baptiste Cyprien Rieu" was instead "Adrien Cyprien Rieu" I could believe that he was listed one way in one record and one way in another.
I see from other things online that she married a Jean Baptiste Peteuil. The marriage seems to be indexed on www.genealogie.com, as taking place at Montclus (Gard), although you would have to pay to see more information.
It may interest you that on castlegarden.org there are:
On the LA GASCOGNE, 4 May 1891
Adrien Rieu, 24
Henri Rieu, 21(Henry is with the Peteuil family in 1900)
Adrien Rieu returns in 1905 (www.ellisisland.org),having previously been in the US for five years, last residence in France Besseges, which is in Gard. In the meantime he has married in France (he gives his brother Henry as his contact in the US).
There is also a marriage on genealogie.com for a Leontine Augustine Rieu in Montclus to a A. Platon, and this in PA:

Unfortunately Gard does not have records online as far as I can tell.You really need to get hold of the marriage records.
You could try contacting the Mairie for Montclus directly, asking for a copy of the marriage (giving names and approximate date):

Until you have a copy of that marriage, everything else is guesswork.
