An interesting, but often tragic story developed over the years around Arthur Hoag and Herbert W. Hoag, sons of Frank and Emma Hoag of 134 Boulder Road, Solvay.

His brother, Herbert, was married to the former Laura Rice, daughter of Mrs. LeRoy J. Rice and the late Mr. Rice of 315 Hall Avenue, Solvay.

All three men survived the war; the tragedies in their families occurred back home.

In 1946 Herbert and Laura Hoag had a daughter, Marcia, who graduated from Solvay High School, Onondaga Community College and Syracuse University. She became a paralegal and had a daughter, Wendy.
