Dear Joe, I don't know that much about my Boyle family except that my Father (George Thomas) was one of three sons: Charles, George and Joseph. He, Thomas, and his wife, Josephine nee Delaney lived in NYC. Thomas had a sister who married a Ryan and lived in R.I. He had another bother, don't know name, who lived in Avoca, PA. This brother had a few children one of whom was a nun, Sr. Josephus, IHM. And, one other brother (don't know his name either) was Mayor of Newport, RI Have you come across any of these Boyle folks in your research? I am so proud of this wonderful family and am anxious to find a few clues in order to get started. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Please e-mail me. Thanks, Michelle Connelly (nee Boyle) NYC
