Members A member of a private group that I am on posted this recently This is from the book “The Scottish Covenanter Genealogical Index – (1630-1712), by Isabella MacLean (could not see date of publication). This website has four separate pages where Boyds are mentioned. All the Boyds seem to be dated 1655. I am not sure what other data is available from this Index or the references given. Or if there are family trees to these individual people. I will add this book to my 2016 “todolist” for when I go to Scotland (not sure of timing at this stage), but others might be able to tell tell us more about this source and if there are any other books on the Covenanters’ in this period of Scottish history. While the below website goes to Boyds, I am sure that others can use it to get their own names. At this time it would appear that this is not a full Index of Covenanters for this period. I look forward to your responses.

Hi Mike, I got this book some months ago and didn't find it useful at all. It is merely an index. You would have to have all the books at hand to look up the information and at that point you wouldn't need the index.
