Hi Anthony,
                        it would be nice if you could bring me in touch with J.W.D. Hoey's brother!
( Killed in action 24/25/June 1943 in Kaggevinne near Diest /Belgium )
He should  have  already a respectable age.
I just hope that it is  his brother, because he didn't fly with a Lancaster but with a Short Sterling.
These aircraft matches is very similar to each other,
I looking forward to it!
Many thanks in advance
Luc

I have a photo of Hoey Family from Ballyshannon must have moved to Lancashire, England then on to Australia or Canada.  Before they left England brought lots of photos to the house for my late mother to see, the photo ended up on the Ballyshannon site.  I took a copy of it before the site closed down when the scanner is free I will copy the photo then send you a private message to e-mail me.

I think the mother and father are William and Lizzie. children Bobby, Willie, James, Paddy, Dick, Angela, Rita, Pat, Tess, Kath, Anne, Frankie, Brendan

Hi Rathmore, thank you for the information and I'm very  curious   to see the pictures ,

 However, I’m afraid  that we don’t talk about  the same person.

 J.WD. Hoey's parents were John (Jack)  Hoey and his mother was Mac Queen Margaret Ann

I sent you a PM with the death certificate .

Thanks in advance
Luc

Hello Rathmore,
I stumbled across this message via a Google search - you are mentioning my grandparents and father (Bobby).  I know the photo you are referring to and would be grateful if you could email me privately to discuss further.

Regards.

The Hoey family mentioned above include my grandparents, father and assorted uncles and aunts. You're right with all the names you mention.  Some of William and Lizzie's childen emigrated to England and some to USA but none  to Australia.  I grew up with a copy of this family photo in our living room ....
