[edit] First Wizarding War

Goyle was a Death Eater during the First Wizarding War and was loyal to his master up until his downfall, when Goyle managed to avoid Azkaban. Around the downfall of Voldemort, Goyle and his wife had a baby boy, Gregory Goyle, who would be educated at Hogwarts from 1991 to 1998, and be friends with Vincent Crabbe and Draco Malfoy.

[edit] Second Wizarding War

Goyle was one of the few Death Eaters who returned to Voldemort when he rose to power again in 1995.
