New Member wants Help tracing Hoyland family tree

[cabrit 10]

My grandad Arthur Hoyland served in the West Riding Battery of the Royal Horse Artillery in WW1. They trained at Wentworth Woodhouse. I have a photo and would like to hear from anyone who has any information of family connection.

 

I am also looking for help with my "Hoyland" family tree. Arthur was born in 1898 in the Upper Hallam Fulwood area as were the ancestors who I have found in the census records. Do I have any relatives out there????

As there's also this burial in the same grave it could be that Arthur's father would aslo be Arthur. Have you looked at the 1901/1911 censuses?

[NANNY 10]

Yes I saw that he was buried with Arthur just checking to see if it was the same Arthur

There are some Hoylands in my family tree. My mother's sister Mary married a Hoyland but I can't remember his first name. I could find out though

Hi Ian,

I do family trees for a living so if you get stuck or need any help assessing censuses please let me know.

Arthur died in 1968 his father was Alfred. I have traced them back to John Hoyland b1720. Arthur had brothers John, Frank & Morris but I know little about them.

[cabrit 10]

Thanks all for the support.

 

As suggested I will try Genes Reunited to look for Arthur's brothers and their families.

 

Nanny thanks for your help also. The published census info I have but prior to 1720 I have nothing.

Hi Cabrit,

I went to Brincliffe Grammar school, Nether Edge and we had a history teacher named Mr Hoyland but I'm sorry I don't remember his Christian name, that's if I ever knew it. He lived on Tullibardine Road, Ecclesall. Thought that this might help, if not now then perhaps at sometime in the future as your family tree progresses.

Thanks he could well be related as Arthur had lots of aunts and uncles in the area.
