Colin was an officer in the Royal New Zealand Air Force during World War 2. He was based in Britain. His bomber was shot down over Germany in the latter stages of the war and he was awarded post-humously the Distinguished Flying cross, the highest Air Force award in the British Commonwealth. It was his last flight before flying home to N,Z, to see his baby daughter for the first time. He never did make it, and lies buried in a field in Germany.

(Statehood: 1792) Early settlements of Kentucky include Harrodsburg in 1774 and Boonesboro, founded 1775 by Daniel Boone. Between 1776 and 1780, Kentucky was known as Kentucky County, Virginia. The early years of the area were extremely difficult for settlers as Indians fought for the land they held dear and many lives were lost in the ensuing battles. The first three counties were organized in 1780. They were Fayette, Jefferson & Lincoln. These original counties were divided into the many known counties of today. There are many free census records online for Kentucky. -----Original Message----- From: Kim Boyd Sent: Wednesday, June 22, 2011 1:16 PM To: boyd@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [BOYD] Fw: Boyd's in Fayette Co.

On our way from Greensboro, NC to Knoxville, TN on Sunday 1 May 2011, Michelle Ligon and I stopped to talk to a group of Boyds at Dan & Betsy Boyd, Boyd Mountain Log Cabins, 445 Boyd Farm Road, Waynesville, NC 28785 (Take Exit 20 on I-40 going west from Asheville, NC to Knoxville, TN down the Jonathan Creek Road Highway and turn right into Hemphill Road.) - with Michelle's little direction box getting us lost in Waynesville, but I will let her tell that story.

Daniel Boyd in 1943 Betsy said that this Boyd family had come from Buncombe Co., NC. The following day when I was at the Knoxville Library with Kathy Manning, I was going though, some of the County History books looking for known Boyd families when I found in The Heritage of Old Buncombe County, North Carolina, Volume II, 1987, Doris Cline Ward, editor, page 102 which outlined the family of James Boyd and Rachel McGill. "James Boyd was born in Ireland on February 4, 1769. The first record of him in Buncombe County, NC is in 1806 when he purchased 50 acres on Bee Tree Creek. Some family members believe he, along with two brothers, John and David, came to America by way of Charleston, South Carolina. ... "James married Rachel McGill in Lincoln County, NC on December 18, 1794. Rachel was also born in Ireland on May 29, 1769.

Did he come up one of the rivers? If so, which one? If your family belongs to any of these children listed, the list, Dan & Betsy Boyd and I will be quite glad to hear from you about this family. When I was in the Knoxville, TN Library I am sure that I found some information that said that the father "James Boyd" came from County Tyrone, Ireland. That might be in one of the envelopes I have yet to sort. When I sort those papers I will let the list know if this is where James Boyd came from in Ireland. Thank you ?

Found the following on Ancestry.com: James Boyd was born in Ireland, 4 February, 1769; the first record of him in Buncombe County, NC, is in 1806, when he purchased 50 acres of land on Bee Tree Creek. Some family members believe he came to America with two brothers (John and David) by way of Charleston, South Carolina. Family stories have it that John Boyd resided in Mecklenburg County, NC and David Boyd moved to Texas. An earlier version is that James was the son or brother of William Boyd who purchased land in Buncombe County between 1790 - 1796. My research and theories are that he came to America with his two brothers by way of South Carolina settling in Buncombe County; where he married Rachel McGill in Lincoln County, NC, 18 December 1794, Rachel was born in Ireland, 29 May 1796. Their lives were spent raising their family in and around the Sandy Mush Creek Community now a part of Madison County, NC. Family historians, family Bibles, land records, and James' Will identify only two children, James Berry Boyd (our ancestor) and Robert McGill Boyd. Although the Boyds came to the Colonies from Ireland, in my research I have found many Boyds in Scotland; it is possible that the family immigrated to Ireland from Scotland. I will be researching this in the near future. I found an article written by Edna Roten (1980)(a Boyd descendent) "Biographical Sketch of DFJ Boyd (Doctor Fitzhugh James Boyd)"; in which Ms Roten states: "The early history of the Boyd's arrival in America records that James Boyd, John Boyd, and David Boyd came from the west side of Lough Leagh in Northern Ireland. The Boyd's had probably migrated from Southern Scotland to Northern Ireland during the reign of King James I; with other colonists who came to the area that was orginally part of the Hugh O'Neil lands." Ms Roten also agrees that the three brothers must have immigrated to America by way of Charleston, as I have stated above. She also states further; "James Boyd came to Sandy Mush, Buncombe County, North Carolina, USA. He and his wife are buried there and there is a monument erected at their graves in the cemetery at the Sandy Mush Baptist Church. Member Name: dmdrozic from Kingman, AZ.

My Aunt Shirley Boyd (now in her 90s), married a Colin Penfold in 1940. Colin was an officer in the Royal New Zealand Air Force during World War 2. He was based in Britain. His bomber was shot down over Germany in the latter stages of the war and he was awarded post-humously the Distinguished Flying cross, the highest Air Force award in the British Commonwealth. It was his last flight before flying home to N,Z, to see his baby daughter for the first time. He never did make it, and lies buried in a field in Germany.
