An Invitation ...
It seems fair to assume that Arthur Doyle & Mary (maiden name not yet known) have thousands of descendants with a wide range of surnames living now. Do you think you can trace your ancestry to Arthur Doyle & Mary? If so, please let us know your connection in the comment section below. Or better yet, please send a photo of yourself/your family with an explanation of the lineage, and I will add you to this post. It would be fun to create a collection of various family members at the Doyle Dining Room blog. You get Bonus Points if you have a photo of yourself at the memorial/tombstone of any of the Arthur Doyle & Mary family member at the Holy Name of Mary Cemetery in Canada! 😇 By The Way ... if you like to vacations at Alexandria Bay in the Thousand Islands, this cemetery is only 72 miles away! About a 1 hour and 15 minute drive (do remember your passport if you are not Canadian, though!).
Here's an Example ...
Pictured is John G. Doyle with his wife Lauren Saurini Doyle; they live in Rochester, NY.
- John G. Doyle is a son of J. Gregory Doyle.
- J. Gregory Doyle is a son of John Gordon Doyle.
- John Gordon Doyle is a son of John Albert Doyle.
- John Albert Doyle is a son of Owen Eugene Doyle.
- Owen Eugene Doyle is a son of Owen Doyle (who emigrated from Graiguenamanagh, Ireland) & Margaret Shaughnessy (who emigrated from Ireland).
- Owen Doyle is a son of Arthur Doyle and Mary (maiden name unknown), also from Graiguenamanagh, Ireland.
*This photo was taken circa 1998 or 1999 at the tombstone/memorial of Owen Doyle & Margaret Shaughnessy at Holy Name of Mary Cemetery in Marysville, Canada.
If you suspect you might be a descendant of Arthur Doyle & Mary and Owen & Margaret from Ireland, please take a look at the page below; it shares the names of their 9 children. Perhaps this list of names will help you discover a connection ...
