M10 Colonel[1] David Boyd, of Tourgill, a natural son, b / /156x ( ), d / /16xx, living 1613 and died before 1623 ( ), bu , Ireland?, m / /159x, Margaret Wallace, Lady Hayning, a widow, dau of Wallace, b / /15xx ( ), d / /16xx ( ), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: ] - He had letters under the Great Seal 11 July 1582, and a grant of the lands of Tourgill 8 August 1598. (This was 8 years after his father's death. So who was the grant given by?) David Boyd of Tourgill, Provost, appears as a witness at Edinburgh 6 November 1613. (Why was he made legitimate in 1582? Was this the date that he turned 21 years? - Mike Boyd's questions) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [1]Can his Army record be traced through the British Army Lists of the time? This date of 1582 of Colonel Boyd seeking “letters of legitimation “ has always puzzled me for the last two or so decades. My first thought was that this was when he became 21 years old. But then I found that the City of Bruges in the Low Countries made him a Colonel in about this same period. So he had to be older than 21 years old. (I am still looking for his date of birth and death.) It has only just occurred to me that Colonel David Boyd may have wished to have taken out his “Arms” as being a commander of a Regiment. So did any of his descendants who moved to the Ards Peninsular put his Coat of Arms on their graves? Or did any of the later generations do that? Thank you Mike Boyd

One of my husband's uncles received a grant of arms but his children cannot use them and I believe it was always so. Nuala --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!
