Notes for BRIDGET ANN (ANNIE) BOYLE: Obituary for Bridget Boyle - The Marinette Eagle-Star Monday 7 May 1956, Marinette, Marinette Co., Wisconsin "ATTACK IS FATAL TO BRIGID BOYLE" Elderly Seamstress Stricken Sunday Miss Brigid Boyle, 79, who fractured her hip March 24 and had been a patient at St. Joseph-Lloyd hospital since, died there early Sunday evening. She had been progressing satisfactorily but suffered a coronary attack at 6:30 p.m. Miss Boyle, who was familiarly known as Bid, was a seamstress all of her life and for many years operated a business at her home, 2614 Hall Ave. Eight years ago she went to St. Joseph's hospital and was supervisor of its sewing department. She was a member of the hospital auxilliary. She was born January 23, 1877 on Beaver Island and had resided in Marinette most of her life. She was a member of Our Lady of Lourdes church, the Altar society and Catholic Woman's club. Surviving are two brothers, Dr. Francis M. Boyle and William Jack Boyle of Marinette; and two sisters, Mrs. George E. Doran of Marinette and Mrs. James Mikolasek of Menominee.

I was present at St. Joseph-Lloyd Hospital when she died the evening of Sunday, 6 May 1956. I spent many hours with her and my grandmother Mae Marjorie Boyle(Doran), since I lived on the same street as my grandmother. I should not that my great-uncle Dr. Francis Maurice "Pat" Boyle lived 3 doors from my grandmothers house. He married Alice Marie Lauerman, whose family home was on Riverside Drive right behind Uncle "Pat"s home. Joseph Lauerman's house was next door to Uncle "Pat's" home.

Word came late Thursday night that he was seriously ill, and his mother, Mrs. Boyle, and George Doran, Mrs. Boyle's son-in-lw, started Friday noon for Des Moines, but it is not thought they reached there before death occurred. The decedent was born in Marinette thirty years ago and passed his boyhood years here. For a number of years he had resided in the west. For some time he was at Jamestown, North Dakota, and more recently at Bismarck. He was a train dispatcher. Last year at the holidays his wife, a bride of the previous June, died, death separating wife and husband by only ten months. The survivors include Mr. and Mrs. John Boyle, the parents; seven sisters and brothers as follows: Mrs. George Watts, of Potlatch, Idaho; Brigid Boyle,city; Daniel, of Ironwood; Mrs. George Doran, city; John, who is in France; Lillian, city, and Francis, Milwaukee, in the S. A. T. C. at Marquette University. Arrangements for the funeral are not made, pending word of the arrival of the body, but in all probability the funeral will be private. A message was received at 4 o'clock this afternoon from George Doran, who is with Mrs. Boyle at Des Moines, read, "Leave Des Moines tonight; delayed here". It is expected that the body will reach Marinette by Tuesday night."

Boyle, soldier son of Mr. and Mrs. John Boyle, was buried. He died last Saturday in Camp Dodge, Iowa, the body arriving in Marinette Wednesday morning. Buried in Uniform The body was dressed in the soldier's uniform, and the handsome casket was draped with the American flag. Spanish American War Veterans bore the casket to and from the funeral car. Owing to the epidemic ban, the decedent having died of the Spanish influenza, the funeral was strictly private. It was held from the chapel of J. R. McLain's undertaking establishment, none but the mourners being admitted to the chapel. The Rev. Father F. G. Tulley, rector of Our Lady of Lourdes church officiated. Imposing Cortege At the conclusion of the brief service, the cortege formed at 10 o'clock, headed by the Mystic Workers Drill Team. Delegations from the Knights of Columbus and of the Elks lodge marched. Directly in front of the funeral car marched Attorney Russell Frawley, son of Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Frawley, who was sent as a special detail with the body from Camp Dodge. At the cemetery the many beautiful floral tokens were in charge of Mrs. J. R. McLain and Mrs. P. C. Donnelly. Interment was made in Forest Home cemetery, the Boyle plat adjoining that of the Deau family, where Delaore Deau, who died at Camp Dodge a few days before Charles Boyle, was buried earlier in the week. The grave was lined with cedar and flowers and the casket was encased in a stone vault. Dan Boyle, a brother of the decedent, was here from Ironwood; Francis Boyle, another brother, came from the Marquette U.S.A.T.C., Milwaukee; John and Owen Conahan, uncles of the decedent of Escanaba and Dennis Mooney of Ishpeming were here for the obsequies of the young man who paid the supreme sacrifice while serving in the great world war cause. The bride of Charles Boyle died last December, a few months after marriage and before ten months past, the young husband joins her in death. The casket bearers who walked at the side of the funeral car were Frank Jesska, G. E. Denzin, Harvey Washburn, John DeTemple, Edward Golden and Steven Duket. The other Spanish American War Veterans marched in procession." |

Notes for GLADYS M. COOLEY: Obituary for Gladys Cooley Boyle 27 Dec 1917. The following obit. appeared in the Stutsman County Democrat on 27 Dec 1917. The obit is for Gladys Cooley, wife of Charles H. "Denny" Boyle. "DEATH OF MRS. C.H. BOYLE Mrs. Gladys Cooley-Boyle, wife of C. H. (Denny) Boyle formerly of Jamestown, died Friday at the St. Alexius hospital in Bismarck, in which institution she had been since October 24th. Mrs. Boyle, formerly Miss Gladys Cooley, was twenty-five years of age. She was a graduate of the Valley City Normal and taught last year in the public schools of Jamestown, being married to C. H. Boyle on June 9th last, shortly after the close of the school year, and going to Bismarck to reside. At deceased's request, funeral and burial were held in Jamestown, the remains being brought here Saturday. The funeral was held Sunday afternoon at 2:30 from St. James Catholic Church, with burial in Calvary Cemetery. The pall bearers were members of the Knights of Columbus, Messrs. V. G. Wilmart, W.F. Emmonds, L.J. Kilkelly, F. E. Mallick, J. L. Vaughn and L. B. Miemeyer. Those from out of the city attending the funeral were Miss Leila Cooley, sister of Mrs. Boyle and the only surviving member of her family, and Mrs. Alberta Tinker of Minneapolis, Mrs. Wackman, Detroit, Minn., Mr. and Mrs. Hugh McDonald and Miss McDonald of Valley City, and Messrs. Jos. Healow and R. R. Reynolds of Bismarck. (Author's note: The remains of Gladys (Cooley) Boyle were later relocated to Forest Home Cemetary in Marinette, Wisconsin and lay beside her husband in the Boyle lot.) Obituary for Mrs. Gladys Cooley Boyle - December 17, 1917 - Marinette Daily Eagle, Marinette, Wisconsin "DIES AT JAMESTWON, N. D. Mrs. Charles Boyle, Wife of Former Marinette Young Man, Passes Away Mr. and Mrs. John Boyle received the sad news yesterday of the death of their daughter-in-law, Mrs. Charles Boyle, at her home in Jamestown, N. D. She past away after an operation in the hospital. She had been in ill health for some time. The funeral obsequies will occur at Jamestown and relatives here were unable to reach that place in time for them. The late Mrs. Boyle was married to the former Marinette man last June. The latter is train dispatcher for the Soo railway at Jamestown. The operation was necessary owing to injuries received in an accident, which was the cause of her final illness." Obituary for Mrs. Charles Boyl - December 1917 - Valley City, North Dakota "DEATH OF MRS. C. H. BOYLE It was with a keen shock that news was received in Valley City, of the death of Mrs. C. H. Boyle, of Bismarck, Friday morning. Mrs. Boyle is known to her Valley City friends as Miss Gladys Cooley. She was born at Strawberry Point, Iowa, and lived more recently in Detroit, Minn., where she graduated from the high school. She lived at Valley City three years, one year as a student at the Normal school and two years as a teacher in the Lincoln school. In her capacity as student and teacher here she gathered about her an unusual contingent of friends. She was a woman of beautiful character and most attractive virtues. She is a niece of Edwin G. Cooley, formerly superintendent of the Chicago schools and was endowed with all the family traits of the teacher. Her success as a teacher here in the Lincoln school was much more than ordinary, leaving her a host of loving admirers, big and little, and singling her out for rapid promotion. She taught later at Fargo to Jamestown. While still teaching in Valley City she was terribly crushed in spirit and in health by the sudden and serious illness of her mother to whom she was greatly devoted, and on whom she lavished her effection and care till her mother passed away. Scarcely had her mother been laid away when she was called to bear the loss of her father also. It was while she was teaching in Jamestown that Mr. Boyle met her and won her for his wife, and they were married at Bismarck last fall, shortly after his transfer to that city as a Western Union operator. She was of the true home maker's temperament and every communication received by friends here was teeming with the enthusiasm and delight and love for her new-made home. Folowing a slight strain some weeks ago she had not felt so well and recently entered St. Alexes hospital for an operation, where she died Friday morning. The funeral was at Jamestown, where the husband lived formerly, services being held at the Catholic cathedral at 2:30 and interment being at the Catholic cemetery. The high esteem in which she and the bereaved husband were held was evidenced by the beautiful floral offerings in immense quantities both at the church and cemetery, and by the large concourse of friends, the storm of the afternoon not withstanding. There are scores in Valley City to mourn the loss of this good friend, and each of these will know the heartaches of the husband." |

John (Jack) Boyle From his obituary and knowledge of immediate family members, it is known that Jack served in France with the Corp of Engineers. John was in France when his brother died on 14 Oct 1918. The following is the unit the Author believes Jack may have served in World War I. A search for his military records is in progress. (Source for below excerpts of unit history is the 107th Web Site at http://www.107thengineers.org/index.asp; Copyright, 1981 107th Engineer Association. Please visit their site for the full story of the 107th. These excerpts are presented here for information purposes only. The Author's comments are in brackets) [The 107th Combat Engineer Battalion, was part ot the famous Red Arrow, 32nd Infantry Division. Following World War I, the 32nd Division was the primary National Guard unit of Michigan and Wisconsin. Army National Guard units still are active in the twin cities of Marinette, Wis. and Menominee,Mich. as of 2001. The Marinette Guard unit is currently configured as C Company, Marinette, 1st Battalion-632nd Armor, 32nd Infantry Brigade, Wis. NG. The Menominee current unit is Detachment 1, 46 MP Co., 210th Military Police Battalion, 177th Military Police Brigade, Mich. NG] "On September 18, 1917, the 2nd Battalion of Wisconsin engineers arrived at Fort MacArthur, Texas, and on September 23, the 107th Engineer Regiment was officially formed, the 1st Michigan becoming the 1st Battalion (Companies A, B, C), and the 2nd Wisconsin becoming the 2nd Battalion (Companies D, E. F). [The 107th arrived at Brest, France on February 16, 1918, initially assigne with the entire 32nd to logistical assignments]; "the 32nd Division was [then] assigned to the Ninth Training Area to prepare further for duty in the trenches. The Division would be held in the training area until the middle of May, all the while perfecting the techniques that would eventually earn them the fearsome nickname, 'Les Terribles'." "With the defeat of Germany, the 32nd Division was selected as one of the occupational Divisions. On November 17, the long march to Germany began with the 107th sending recon teams far in front of the advance guard.....The German Border was crossed on December 1, and the Division advance was finally halted on January 24. After departing France on May 5 on the steamer HAVERFORD, the Regiment arrived at Fort Dix, New Jersey on the 18th. At Fort Dix all Regiment men from the east and south were discharged and the remainder sent on to Camp Custer. By the 28th, the Regiment was demobilized, the men mustered out and homeward bound on the special train sent directly from the Upper Peninsula. The 107th Regiment no longer existed. During the great war the 32nd Division spent six months under fire with a mere ten days in a rear rest area. The 32nd met and vanquished 23 German Divisions, took 2,153 prisoners and gained more than 38 kilometers of ground without surrendering a meter. Casualties for the Division were high, in excess of 14,000 troops. As a vital and integral part of the 32nd, the 107th took its share of losses, being roughly equal to ten percent of the Regiment's strength. The 107th also took its share of honors, receiving two Distinguished Service Crosses, ten Legion of Honors, 38 French Croix de Guerres and eight special individual citations. In addition the Regiment earned Campaign Streamers for Aisne-Marne, Champagne, Alsace, Oise-Aisne and Meuse-Argonne." Another summary of the 107th in France from the Wisconsin Army National Guard History Of The Guard http://www.state.wi.us/agencies/dma/recruiting/history.htm "The National Guard proved its worth to the nation under the command of General John J. Pershing, first in the 1916 Mexican Border Dispute, and again in 1917-18 when Pershing headed the American Expeditionary Force which sailed to France to help end the First World War. Wisconsin Guard members, fighting alongside Michigan Guardsmen in the 32nd Infantry Division, distinguished themselves on the battlefields of France. They earned the nickname "Les Terribles" ("The Terrible Ones") and justified the design of their new unit crest - a red arrow running through a horizontal bar, signifying that they pierced every line the enemy placed in their way." 1944 - Marinette Eagle-Star, Marinette, Marinette County, Wisconsin "VETERAN - Jack Boyle's dog Pal, a six-year-old German short-haired pointer, came home from the war yesterday minus a tail, a little lighter in color, sleeker and sharp as a razor. "He came in barking 'Buy Bonds'," Boyle said, "or at least that's what it sounded like to me. It took him several minutes to get his bearings, but from then on he seemed to be right at home." Boyle intends to keep Pal leashed for several days, but it probably won't take him long to get back to his favorite haunts such as Blasky's barber shop and several other hangouts. "He sure obeys commands," Boyle said "when he gets an order to 'down' he gets down and stays down." Jack fears that his wife, observing the improvements in Pal, may prescribe a twist in the Army for him too." Wednesday, November 26, 1947 - Marinette Eagle-Star, Marinette, Wisconsin "PAL, MARINETTE'S LONE VET OF CANINE ARMY, DIES HERE TODAY Pal is dead! Though he was one of the best known veterans of World War II in these parts, he belonged to no service club and was what some folks would call a "loner." He had a few close friends, of course, among them the chef at Olsen's Cafe where he called regularly for a hand-out. But he always called at the kitchen door and didn't mingle with the paid customers who came in the front way. Pal had no pension, though his enlistment record shows he entered the service August 6, 1942 and was honorably discharged February 4, 1944 after considerable service in the South Pacific. And he was a disabled veteran in a sense. You see, Pal was Jack Boyle's German short-haired pointer and had his long tail amputated before he was accepted for canine service. That's where the disability comes in. In short, Pal was one of the best known dogs in the state - a big lumbering dog born June 12, 1936 that lived to a rather ripe old age, as dogdom goes. He was a friend of everyone before he entered the service, but he wasn't the same Pal after he returned. Maybe the South Pacific took too much out of him and maybe he couldn't forget some of the tricks. At any rate, it was no longer a case of anywhere Jack would go the dog was sure to follow. Jack Boyle and the dog were still good friends, of course, even though Jack squawked about the price of meat and perhaps approved Pal's daily call at the restaurant. But somehow the dog and Jack drifted apart. War does strange things, it seems, even to dogs. And now Pal and Jack are parted forever, for Pal died this morning. Death was attributed to debilities that creep up with age." |

Notes for ROGER PATRICK BOYLE: Wednesday, August 21, 1901 - "The Daily Eagle", Marinette, Marinette County, Wisconsin A CHILD KILLED The Infant Son of John Boyle Almost Instantly Killed by Street Car Particulars of Accident No One Seems to Know How it Occured. - Child's Body Was Not Mangled A very sad accident occurred last night about eight o'clock. Roger Patrick Boyle, the little son of John Boyle, residing at 2614 Hall Ave., was almost instantly killed in front of and almost under the parent's eyes. Although no one seems to know exactly how the accident occurred, the fact is that the little child was killed by a passing street car, run by John Weiler. How it Happened As was stated before, no one can state definitely just how the child met his death. The little fellow with some older children was playing around the sidewalk where Mr. Boyle was working. Everybody's attention was distracted for the moment. The first known of the accident was a scream from one of the little girls on the walk and when the father, who was not more than twenty feet from the track, reached the little body, life was all but extinct. There is no doubt that the car did the fatal work, although there were several teams passing at the time, and everyone seems to have been so rattled that no one can give any definite statement. John Weiler, the motorneer, who was running the car at the time, disclaims all knowledge of the accident. He is sure that the front of the car did not strike the child, and knew nothing of it till his return from the upper end of the line, when he was informed that his car had killed a child. One thing is certain. The wheels did not pass over the body. It is thought that the little one, perhaps attracted by the light of the passing car, toddled out, and to all appearances ran into the side of the car, probably falling under the foot board, or against the side of the car. When it was picked up after the accident, it was lying at the side of the track and examination proved that one leg and arm were broken and that the spine and several ribs were also fractured. John Weiler's Story Following are the words spoken by John Weiler, the man who was running the car at the time. When interviewed, he said; "I cannot believe that I killed that child. I knew nothing of it at the time until on my way back to the depot switch, I saw quite a crowd and some one had said that John Boyle's little boy had been killed. I know that the wheels did not pass over him, because I felt no jar in the car. I noticed on my way up several children playing in the road, but when the front of the car, on which I was standing, passed them, they all seemed to be out of danger and I paid no further attention to them. I can't believe now that I killed that child." The parents were almost prostrated by the news but when informed as to how the accident happened seemed not inclined to blame the Street Car Company or the motorneer. It may be regarded as an accident, which had they been forewarned, might have been averted, but under the circumstances, no one is considered responsible. Definite arrangements for the funeral have not yet been completed. Misses Julia and Bridget Boyle have been notified and are expected home from Niagara this noon."
