This comment probably won't help a soul but I have to scratch my head and wonder. Here Nicole writes about two families, Kidds and Boyds in Saskatchewan. In northeast Texas my line of Boyds and been closely associated with a family of Kidds for close to a hundred years. Cannot tell you much about this Kidd family other than they have lived in Henderson County Texas for a very long time. Not the first time I have seen coincidences like this before or family who migrated across the country living within miles of each other and to eventually inter marry.
