Dr. Temple Staugton Hoyne was born on Clark Street in Chicago, the eldest son of Hon. Thomas Hoyne, LL.D, one of the eldest members of the Chicago bar, and Leonora Maria Temple Hoyne. He was the maternal grandson of Dr. John Taylor Temple and Elizabeth Ann Staughton Temple, of St. Louis, MO. Dr. Hoyne was a practicing physician and Professor of Materia Medica at the Hahnemann Medical College of Chicago, and also in charge of the venereal patients in the Scammon Hospital.

He received his education in the University of Chicago, where he graduated in 1862, receiving the three degrees of B.S., M.S., and A.M. On his graduation, he attended two courses of lectures in the Bellevue Hospital Medical College, New York, receiving the degree of M.D. in February, 1865.

Previously to this, in 1862, he took a partial course in the Hahnemann Medical College of Chicago. His father expressed a wish that he should pursue the practice of the law, so Temple entered his office, but finding the study exceedingly distasteful, he gave himself to the study of medicine as the profession of his life.

Dr. Hoyne's father, impressed with the belief that all boys should be taught a trade, encouraged his son to learn the art of printing. In accordance with this wish, Dr. Hoyne worked in the printing office of the "Chicago Democrat" half a day while attending school in his boyhood.

In 1864, during the Civil War, Dr. Hoyne had charge of a hospital in Fredericksburg, Va., in company with Dr. F. H. Hamilton of New York. The hospital contained three hundred men wounded in the Battle of the Wilderness.

Dr. Hoyne was married October 17, 1866 to Frances H. Vedder of New York. In all the departments he filled, Dr. Hoyne acquitted himself to the general approval. As professor in the college he was earning for himself an exalted reputation, while his publications upon various subjects added largely to his renown as a physician thoroughly conversant with his subject. He was perfectly at home in both the theory and practice of homœopathy, and enjoyed largely the confidence of his professional brethren.

Dr. Temple S Hoyne wrote "Clinical Therapeutics, Venereal and Urinary Diseases," "The Medical Visitor," and he contributed to numerous homeopathic journals.

Dr. Hoyne was survived by his wife, a daughter, Maud Hoyne Buell, and a grandson, Temple Hoyne Buell.

Dr. Hoyne died in Chicago, IL on February 4, 1899 following surgery for a bowel obstruction.

In our Black family tree, Temple is my husband's maternal 2nd cousin, 3x removed.
