Samuel Henry Hoy was a native of Henry County, Ohio and two birth dates were located,

March of 1857 and November 2, 1865, which was recorded on his death certificate by his

daughter, Mrs. Nina Tanner. However, Ancestors of Frank Eugene Hoy reports the March date,

so that is probably more accurate. Samuel became a Seneca County, Ohio general farmer, and by

the 1930 census, was in poultry. On November 2, 1881, he married Clara Elizabeth (Jacobus),

who was also a native of Henry County. They raised eight children, Chalmer Edward,

Alma Mae, Mable Margaret, Frank Eugene, Ralph W., John Wesley, Nina Dorcas and

Robert J. Hoy. The family probably lived in Clyde in Seneca County. Clara Elizabeth passed away

on December 22, 1937 of coronary sclerosis, and Samuel Henry died of bronchial pneumonia on

April 23, 1942, both in Seneca County. Burial for both was at Fairmont Cemetery in Tiffin,
Seneca County, Ohio.
