Thanks !
I have written to a few historical societies in Sydney - I got a reply back from the Randwick one.
The Mark Foy who set up the store in Sydney ( with his brother Francis) was born in Bendigo, Victoria.
His father , also Mark Foy, came from King's County in Ireland. His father was a French flour-miller, Marc Foy and his mother was Catherine Hennessey.
At this point I see no relation of Mark Foy to my Charles Foy.
Thank you to everyone who replied to my post . :)
Happy Hunting ,
Sarah Davies.
