You and the list may already be aware of this, but there are also papers regarding the Boyd/Rea/Irwin/Leech families of Sadsbury in the James Buchanan files at the Lancaster County History Society.

Sallie, Perhaps you and I can set an appointment to peruse the Buchanan papers the Tuesday after the AGM. That would be the nineteenth or 20th. I am coming through Lancaster on the way home. The plan is to find where the old Boyd spinsters lived near Sadsbury and Compass. And locate and identify the Tavern that Margaret Boyd and her Hamilton husband operated on the "old Pike". The four marriage proofs are in the register at St. Johns, Compass. I am going there on Monday. It is my true belief that we are looking at the famous "White Horse tavern" which the Buchanan family owned. I would like to know for sure if this Hamilton who married Margaret daughter of George and Isabell built it. Their suit against James was as famous as the suit against Slaymaker. The Slaymaker book says that the Tavern was at "The corner" of the Boyd place. "New Miltown" is most likely where George had his mill and if the property went all the way from White Horse to Mill town then it envelops the Pequea creek on both sides. We know from White Chimneys that these Boyds had a system for floating their tobacco, grain, whiskey, and goods down the Pequea to safe Harbor on the Susquehanna. If you follow this creek from google earth view you can see that it flows through Paradise, thence to "New Danville"(a name i find most interesting). Prior to the construction of the road from Philadelphia to Lancaster, and George the first died fifty years before the road came through, this creek and river system was the only way to get stuff out. Amos Slaymakers original place was just beyod the Gap on the north side of what is now called The Lincoln highway. This all fits. So where is the house that Henry Slaymaker refers to as "The Old Boyd Mansion" where Isabell and Mary, the two sisters of the four uncles lived their whole lives and after them Alston the lawyer son of Robert Jr., their great nephew, took up residence during the twenty years of the court case? This house should still stand somewhere in this area. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.0236312,-76.011044,2901m/data=!3m1!1e3 Barry Boyd in Dallas On 4/21/2016 3:56 PM, Sallie Ketcham wrote: > You and the list may already be aware of this, but there are also > papers regarding the Boyd/Rea/Irwin/Leech families of Sadsbury in the > James Buchanan files at the Lancaster County History Society.

Barry, I am so excited about your Boyd research, theories and discoveries. I am actually going to be in Scotland while you are in PA but please keep me posted and I would be happy to help out in any way I can. I hope to see these Haplo A and Compass PA Boyds unraveled sometime soon!
