My wife's maiden name is Doy
She was born in Southwold, Suffolk
and traces name back to Norfolk
North Elmham and Hoe around 1730
Some say it is a hugenot (hope spelling is correct)
and originates from France
FamilySearch has Doy and variants on continent
much earlier than 1700, so this could be true
