Pablo,
KiwiRose, it may well be that her newspaper article was more correct than his unless they had two ceremonies. The Emerald Ancestors website had the following: Thomas Hugh Hoey married 1879 to Jane McAuley at the Ranmdalstown Old Presbyterian Church. Also, on a net website I came across the following although I do not know how accurate it is as there are certain problems, namely that Jane McAuley is a daughter of David McAuley, not James.
The image (irishgenealogy.ie) of the marriage of Thomas Hugh Hoey to Jane McAuley has the following information:
Marriage: Solemnized at Randalstown, in the Parish of Drummaul, in the Co Antrim.
5 June 1879. Thomas Hugh Hoey, 21yrs, bachelor, Farmer, Glenwherry. Father: Hugh Hoey, Farmer.
Jane McAuley 21, Spinster, Artlone, Father: David McAuley, farmer.
Witnesses: Thomas McAuley and Agnes Hoey.

Thomas Hugh’s father left a will when he died at Crosshill on 15 Feb 1900: The image is on Proni wills site. Thomas Hugh received 12 pounds. Among Hugh’s children named in the will was a Jane Houston who received 10 pounds.
I see that Thomas Hugh’s married sister, Mary Ann Barton, emigrated to the South Island of NZ and visited him in Queensland in 1940. Warwick Daily News 24 May 1940.

An Agnes McClintock (hubby Alexander), Mary Ann Murry (Andrew Murray), Sarah Warden (Samuel) and an Eliza Jane Hoy? (Is her surname Hoey?). Thirty pounds bequeathed to his son Thomas -who had emigrated to Australia. One of the executors was John Service, farmer of Castlegore. (Wife’s relation?)
