Dear Solange,
(Ada) May had two daughters: Jill and Phyllis.Phyllis still lives in Cambridge and Jill lives in Grantchester.I am Phyllis' daughter and I have been trying to track down the history of the Hoye family for a while.I had heard the story of my great-grandfather working in Chantilly as a tailor for the jockeys (I have a pair of scissors which allegedly belonged to him, and Mum has a couple of beautiful portraits of the family group).I would love to hear from anyone who has information on where the Hoyes hailed from originally (there were some rather exotic tales abounding on our side of the family!) and just to hear your side of the family's history.
Regards,
Susanne.
