Hello again Michael,
Some further preliminary basic genealogical info. re. the Hoy family to get you up and running.
Arthur's five brothers who lived beyond infancy were:
1. Matthew: B. 1 November 1882 at 54 Northumberland Street, Sunderland. Co. Durham. Christened/baptised: 19 March 1883 at St. Leonard's R.C. Church, Sunderland. [He was born illegitimately.] Married: 2 January 1902 at St. Bede's R.C. Church in South Shields - Mary Johnson Wright. Died: 27 March 1929, aged 46. [Of pneumonia at 218 John Williamson Street, South Shields.] (Mary died on 2 May 1937, aged 54).
2. Patrick: B. 28 June 1884 at 49 Brougham St., Sunderland. C. in St. Mary's R.C. in Sunderland. M (1): 30 April 1910 at St. Bede's R.S. in SS (Elizabeth Thomas: she died aged 32 and was buried in SS. on 21 June 1924). M (2): 3 October 1925 (St. Bede's R.C.) - Elizabeth McPadden, died 12 February 1933, aged 31, in SS). D. 7 December 1946 in Slough (then Berkshire), aged 63.
3. James: B. 6 July 1890 (SS). C. at home that same day and later C. in St. Bede's R.C. on 22 July 1890. Unmarried. D. 13 July 1915, aged 25. Killed in Action at Gallipoli, Turkey, in the Action of Achi Baba Nullah.
4. Frederick William: B. 2 January 1892 (SS). C. 16 January 1892 (St. Bede's). M. 15 April 1918 (Ellen Baines), St. Bede's R.C., SS. D. 13 November 1957. aged 65, in SS.
5. Thomas: B. 9 June 1897 at 18 South Frederick Street, SS. M. 14 June 1928 - Catherine Ann Millan, B. in SS. on 29 April 1900. D. 6 August 1960, aged 63, in Elswick, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. Catherine Hoy, my Nana, died on 14 September 1983, aged 83. They had separated when my Dad was about three and a half or four in 1933-4.
Michael. there's masses more I could tell you but I suspect that that's probably more than enough for now. I have all the info. typed out in the form of extended family trees which I should be able to send Barbara and yourself in the form of attachments once we learn each other's e-mail addresses.
Just to tell you that I have now been able to make contact with descendants of all four of my Hoy great uncles who got married and had their own families. I'm pleased with and proud of that fact. I have been able to follow all the Hoeys/Hoys back to the 1851 Census and know that your grandad had ancestors from Co. Louth. the townland of Leons Beg near Carrickmacross in Co. Monaghan, and the small town of Mohill in Co. Leitrim. You'll be given all this extra info. in time, hopefully.
Regards.
Peter.
