Mindy and others I will have to talk to Lauren about how best to put on the website what material I have found on various Boyd family Branches during my recent trips. I still have material to sort from last years trip. I am up to folder 33 and that comes to some 64 pages. I still have to go through it, to put in family chapter numbers against most of this work, so it may be another month before I can send that. I have already started to sort the material from this years trip and I am up to folder 6, as I walk TV at nights - so I have to go through and Index and list the contents. However, in a few days time I will send to the list my known list of Boyd books, so we can start a process of asking members if they can find any additional Books on Boyd families. I know that I found several new books to me at the Nashville Library but that is about 4 envelopes away before I can send those to the list. What I am thinking is to ask all members of the HBS and list members to see if they can add any additional Boyd books as a first phase and then as a second phase to get people to look at The County History Books for your State to see what additional Boyd families that can be found. I also noticed that the Ohio Genealogical had members family tree publication, so that may become a third phase. I am sure that I can find some other phases that members can help to find families that are already known or published as well, including members interest lists, etc Thank you Mike Boyd Historical Committee, HBS ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mindy Householder" <minzgen@gmail.com> To: "Marla Fair" <dfair@woh.rr.com> Cc: "Boyd List" <BOYD-L@rootsweb.com>; "Dean Road" <deanroadeditor@gmail.com>; "Kevin McLachlan" <kevinbmclachlan@gmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, April 26, 2011 10:06 PM Subject: Re: [BOYD] Mike Boyd's talk in Troy OH > Hi all > > Wow what a weekend.
