Hello Cousins, I am looking for information on my great great great grandfather* Robert K Boyd* or any family members. He was born *1814* in Ohio and moved to Missouri and died sometime after 1870 in Boone, Missouri. (He doesn't appear in the 1880 census) He married a Lucinda Rush 1 Dec 1836 in Shelby, Indiana and they had the following children: Francis M Boyd 1850 - 1921 married Emma Hill Miles 1864 - 1942 (My great, great grandfather & grandmother) *Other children that may provide clues*: *James J Boyd* 1839 - ?? married *Mary A Jones* 1844 -?? *Louisa J Boyd* 1842 - 1927 married *Benjamin T Beal* 1830 - 1898 *Nancy A Boyd* 1844 - ?? married *William P Harshbarger* 1844 - 1911 *William Robert Boyd* 1848 - ?? married *Carla C Crockett* 1847 - 1915 *Sarah M Boyd* 1852 - 1926 married *Ebenezer H Beal *1838 - 1909 *T.L Boyd* 1854 - ?? *Charles Boyd* 1856 - ?? If anyone is related to or has additional information on any of these children it could greatly help. Photos would even be better. Regards, Steven
