This Thomas Boyd seems to be the son of Robert Boyd and Eleanor McCulloch. He was born 03/10/1761 and died 11/24/1846 in Callaway Co. Mo. He married Grezelda Allen on 03/210/1787. (DAR Patriot index (1966) p 77. "Daughters of the American Revolution Lineage Book." (a) Vol. 63,p.84. Lineage of Miss Grace Boyd 62254. Appears to have had 7 Children John Eleanor b. 01/19/1788 Robert b. 1789 Jane b. 01/26/1793 Joseph b. 10/07/1798 Thomas b. 05/29/1801 There is also mention of another John born 11/09/1796. This is a bit confusing and could be an error. Could also be that the first John died and they used the name again. Have heard of that but would not take the information on John without further evidence. USE WITH CAUTION AND ONLY WHEN CONFIRMED!

Larry The data I have on this Thomas Boyd is:- U3 Thomas Boyd, b 10/3/1761 ( , York Co., PA), d 12/10/1847 ( , Callaway Co., Missouri), bu , m 1/1/1787 ( , Burke Co., NC), Grezella Allen, dau of John and Margaret (nee ) Allen, b 20/8/1763 ( , York Co.?, PA), d 18/8/1845 ( , Callaway Co., Missouri), bu , and had issue:- You will note the marriage of 1787. Plus you will also notice that there are more than 2 years gaps between some of the children which could have meant that a child died in infancy. When you say 7 children, I assume you are counting 2 John Boyd's? So what data do you have on the first John Boyd?
