Barry, In reply to an older comment on the Boyds of Swansea I have to say that, ( on hand me down info ), that William Boyd was my great grandfather and he and his brother Thomas were early settlers on Lake Macquarie. Maud Boyd, one of William Boyd's daughters, was my grandmother. Maud in turn married one Walter Lambert James and they resided in Newcasltle area all of their married life as did my parents. The stories I have heard over the years from my grandmother re the Boyds have now become a little fogged so antything I say from hereon could be classed as heresay I suppose. The way she spoke of her father was little short of complete praise for the man and and his brother Tom. As best I recollect she told me of the adventures together they had in investigating Lake Macquarie. ( and I am not sure that it was named Lake Macquarie in those days or not as grandma used to call it by another name but I am not sure what it was ). These two brothers finally settled in Swansea and they had streets named for them, I.E Boyd Street, William street and Thomas street. Their final days were spent there but prior to that they were noted as investigators of the Central Coast as they apparently used to carry goods etc from Sydney to Lake Macquarie. As you can tell from the above info all of my roots on my mothers side were from in and around the lake subsequently I am now researching this particular Boyd family but to no avail. The question now remains for me to find answers to is, " Where did the Boyd brothers come fropm prior to Lake Macquarie ?" Do you or anybody that you may have been in contact with re the early days of Lake Macquarie have information on these two Boyd brothers ? I am at a complete dead end on these two brothers so any info that you may have come across in the past will or maybe of assistance to me.

Both died in Granville County." "James Boyd married Mary - - - - - and they had three children-Samuel, Isabella (West) and Margaret (Wilson). Samuel had five children - Frances, James, Samuel Jr., William and Sarah (Frost). All of the children moved to Tennessee. Isabella Boyd West's nine children included Susan (Sutton), Ruth (Costello), Mary (Dinegan), Alexander, Isaac, James and Samuel. Margaret Boyd Wilson's children were-Emichael, James and Samuel. Margaret's family moved to Georgia and Sarah Frost's family moved to Tennessee." ..."We believe these Boyds-James and Robert-lived in the Stovall community." [Mike Boyd's Note: It is a pity this source did not say where in Tennessee this family moved to. You will note that while they said that Isabelle Boyd (T2) had nine children, they only listed seven. The two extra names that I have are Soloman West (U6) and Ann West (U7). While the 8th and 9th children would appear to be James West and Samuel West respectively. While Margaret Boyd Wilson (T3) first child I have as "Rachel" Wilson rather than the "Emichael" Wilson. Could this be confusion of the sound of the name Rachel?

Mike Boyd -----Original Message----- From: Barry Boyd Sent: Tuesday, February 16, 2016 1:01 AM To: Mike Boyd ; boyd@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [BOYD] Boyd property in halifax county, VA Ok, I am in on this project with you. and to my knowledge these Boyd properties have never been fully worked out. we are just now getting to where we all agree about the tree itself. The Black Walnut plantation should be the George who married Wilmouth Irby daughter of William Irby the county commissioner for Lunenburg and charter commissioner for Halifax when it formed. He (George Boyd) was the son of Robert son of Patrick whose place was on the south side of the Dan River and went up Lawsons creek including the islands. Most of John Boyds settlement was on the North side of the river at the bend where the town of South Boston is now. The other two brothers Robert and James went a bit farther south to Granville district North Carolina. I have found James;s plantation called "Knapp of Reeds" but I am still looking for where Roberts place was in what became Granville district. It was north of Knapp of Reeds, in the county, and near the great highway which was then just a "footpath". By the time you are wanting to work out the properties (1820's) the Boyd properties were quite numerous in this area. We have to start with the greater Lunenberg county realizing that the Mecklenberg Boyd are not related so you have to sort them out here first. Then once the county divided and formed Halifax- all records after that are still extant and in Halifax courthouse. This is a doable project and I welcome the help and challenge. there are some descendants still living near South Boston who will help us, also. I am in contact with some of them. I will be traveling there (Pickens, SC; Granville, NC; Halifax co., VA) in September on my way to the AGM. It is my hope to have all of this family worked out by then so that I can gather all of the proofs. I have identified many of these earlier properties but my line was in Pickens by 1800.

Barry What are you going to do with this research? Mike Boyd -----Original Message----- From: Barry Boyd Sent: Tuesday, February 16, 2016 1:01 AM To: Mike Boyd ; boyd@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [BOYD] Boyd property in halifax county, VA Ok, I am in on this project with you. and to my knowledge these Boyd properties have never been fully worked out. we are just now getting to where we all agree about the tree itself. The Black Walnut plantation should be the George who married Wilmouth Irby daughter of William Irby the county commissioner for Lunenburg and charter commissioner for Halifax when it formed. He (George Boyd) was the son of Robert son of Patrick whose place was on the south side of the Dan River and went up Lawsons creek including the islands. Most of John Boyds settlement was on the North side of the river at the bend where the town of South Boston is now. The other two brothers Robert and James went a bit farther south to Granville district North Carolina. I have found James;s plantation called "Knapp of Reeds" but I am still looking for where Roberts place was in what became Granville district. It was north of Knapp of Reeds, in the county, and near the great highway which was then just a "footpath". By the time you are wanting to work out the properties (1820's) the Boyd properties were quite numerous in this area. We have to start with the greater Lunenberg county realizing that the Mecklenberg Boyd are not related so you have to sort them out here first. Then once the county divided and formed Halifax- all records after that are still extant and in Halifax courthouse. This is a doable project and I welcome the help and challenge. there are some descendants still living near South Boston who will help us, also. I am in contact with some of them.

Barry, I descend from James Boyd of Granville (Knapp of Reeds) through his son, Samuel. I believe Samuel moved to Montgomery County, NC around 1790 and lived near "the Narrows of the Yadkin (River)." This branch was either married into or closely associated with the Duke and Myrick families and Samuel's sons later moved to TN and KY. Hope this helps with the sorting process and I would be happy to assist any way I can. Happy Hunting!

There is a house/plantation with the name Black Walnut as well as a census/voting district with the same name. The house is not in that district.

Members Does anyone have contact with this "Jennifer Byde on Ancestry.com"? If not, is there a member who is also a member of Ancestry.com who can volunteer to contact her please and say that I am trying to contact her about this Boyd/McWha family - which appears to come form County Down.

In doing some research on an unrelated family in the Merton Hall area I noted that the Rev. William Boyd wrote the First Statistical Account for Penninghame parish and further, on the Ainslie 1782 map of Wigton county, the residences of Rev. William and J. Boyd Esq are actually marked on the map: http://maps.nls.uk/view/74400335#zoom=5&lat=8834&lon=11788&layers=BT Iain
