The mention grey, malmaison pink, and sparse habit, has made me think of ‘Mrs. Bosanquet’ for “Jane Hoey”.

Interesting suggestion. There are two descendants listed with Mrs Bosanquet as seed parent, but we haven't been watching this rose for long enough to be sure it doesn't set hips.

Ive just added a reference which made me think of “Jane Hoey”. Do you think Graziella (tea, Dubreuil, 1893) should be added to the list of possibilities?

Yes, worth adding. I think of it as a pink rose rather than a white, but it would be useful if someone who grows Graziella would comment. I haven't noticed a problem with its opening in spring. I see that Graziella doesn't have any descendants listed.
"Jane Hoey" is one of a batch we'll be sending to WA via quarantine this winter, so eventually Tealadies and others can study them. "Dr Grill ex Honeysuckle nursery" thanks to HubertG, "George Whatson", "William James Wright", and "Bird Children" from Rookwood; Cl. Perle d'Or, "Bunya Mountains Noisette", the probable reversion from Mme Driout, and for 'Blackwood', Angele Pernet. Mostly budded onto Dr Huey.
Later comment: yes it can ball in wet weather.

How does “Jane Hoey” compare with “Agnes Saffron’s Early tea”?

Many similarities but as far as I can tell, not the same. We don't have access to a mature plant of "Jane Hoey", and the one at Blakiston, which is the only one I can get to, is in an unfriendly part of the garden and is sulking.
I think the prickles of "Jane Hoey" are broader-based, and it didn't get the burgundy spring flush of "Agnes Saffron's". I haven't seen a hard green centre (? proliferation) in "Agnes Saffron's".

When Blakiston gets enough rain to make the ground diggable, I'll move "Jane Hoey" to be near "Agnes Saffron's".
Later comment (23 Sep) I put a cutting of "Jane Hoey" in near "Agnes Saffron's". However I'm comfortable now that they are different: "Agnes Saffron's" is in its striking burgundy spring flush, and "Jane Hoey" is green.

Many of the batch of found Teas sent to WA in the winter of 2020 were available for study there only briefly, before the chilli thrip killed them. The best-laid plans...
