Well, he's there now! I haven't found him, but I haven't yet searched each and every file. Maybe Mike will add some info here. I take it there is no info about him after the age of 15 or about his move to MO? Does anyone else on the list know this Thomas? Thanks, Colin!

Charlene: take a look at the "Manor of Maske" Boyds. He could be descended from one of the sons of Thomas Boyd who died in 1760, leaving oldest son William to raise his siblings, among them a son Andrew. Or his brother William Boyd who died in 1785.
