I found the website when I googled Stoy family but you can find it at
www.robertstoy.com.
I just pulled it up & he has a link to the NJ Stoys. Apparently, that is his group,
also. I'm not sure when he did this so he may have died since posting the info. My
Stoys were in the old Kensington area of Philly, now called Fishtown(right down on the
Delaware by Penn Treaty Park). They were ship carpenters. The farthest back that I can
go is the Peter Stoy that m. Elizabeth Stone at Christ Church in Philly. The church has
marriage & baptism records online. Some researchers have his father as Peter also
& mother as a Margaretha but I haven't seen any proof of that. Peter &
Elizabeth's grandson, also Peter, moved to Indiana in 1818.
If I can help in any way please let me know. You can also use my email if you'd like,
