This is to advise members of all these lists that might live in the Portland, Oregon, area (or near by) that I will be visiting on the above dates to look for Boyd family tree at your Multmonth County Library 801 SW 10th Avenue and the Oregon Historical Society on Tuesday afternoon when it opens. I have been going nearly every years since 2004 to both Ireland and Scotland I am quite happy to put an hour aside on Tuesday evening 1 September 2015 at 6.00 pm to talk to anyone who may wish to go to Scotland and Ireland for the first time about traveling there; how to start going your family tree (although I assume if you are on these lists you are well past that stage) and some of the research facilities that are available in both Scotland and Ireland, especially Northern Ireland. If you have any Boyd – both male and female – in your tree I would like to be able to collect those trees form you as well, so I can add it to the 760 other Boyd Family Chapters in the Clan Boyd Pyramid. In 1993 I completed Volume 1 of Clan Boyd of Scotland and have filled a further 10 Volumes which I have to get time to edit. I will be staying at the Downtown Value Inn, 415 SW Montgomery St., Portland - so lets hope there is some space that we can meet near reception. Thank you Mike Boyd Chairman Historical Committee House of Boyd Society Brisbane, Aust.
