In a letter Bill D'Elia received from Holy Name Cemetery in 1986, they listed are the following occupants of the grave B-22-B:
John Hoy, 45 yrs, 1-29-1875
Patrick Hoy, 48 yrs, 2-2-1876
Ann Hoey, 83 yrs, 5-29-1878
Mary J. Meaney, 41 yrs, 1-3-1880
Rose Hoey, 55 yrs, 12-15-1886
Thomas McKeever, 68 yrs, 3-15-1898
Bridget McKeever, 60 yrs, 11-10-1905

The ages are not accurate and the dates listed are of burial. I have Shaw family members buried in a different plot owned by Thomas McKeever. I'm sure he is family, I just don't know exactly how he is related. And Mary Meaney is the only one with the surname Meaney, out of all the plots I have papers for in that cemetery. She also might have been a daughter of Ann Hoey.
