Do you have any further information on this Hugh Boyle from Co. Donegal? My Hugh Boyle was from Donegal or Tyrone and had a daughter named Annie that married John McMenamin.

I don't know where in Ireland they came from and was hoping you might have an ides. > I established a relationship for the three brothers John, William and Louis by noting the relationships given in various church records such as godparents or witnesses. Most give only names, but once in a while they will list the relationship. There are a number of firm indications of the relationship. In fact in Sister Claire's book she notes someone's godparents as James Boyle and Catherine McFarlin a grandmother or something close. Well, James Boyle is my great grandfather and the son of Louis the brother and Catherine is his mother. > > There is a Hugh Boyle in the nearby town of St. Sylvestre from Donegall County and I even have the town, but I can't make a connection with him by the above method. > > Glad to know sister Claire's work is continuing. She had contact with a "cousin" Rena Boyle in St Patrick PQ. Rena descended from John through Felix and Albert her father. She passed away several years ago, but has siblings still living in St. Pat's. I visited her several times and know that she knew the location of some of her family birth places in St. Gilles which is about 10 miles east of St. Pats. Her brother John who lived next door to her must know the location. > > Most of Louis family either stayed in PQ or moved to New Hampshire of Vermont. I am in Concord NH. Many of William's family did the same. It is probable that some also went west as MN was considered at that time. The PQ records don't indicate where anyone went. > > Will gather what you may be interested in and get it out shortly. > Joe Boyle > > > ==== BOYLE Mailing List ==== > Family Boyle Net -- http://family.boyle.net > Boyle Genealogy Forum: http://genforum.genealogy.com/boyle/ > Archives: http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl > To unsubscribe http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/surname/b/boyle.html > Listowner, Pat Connors: mailto:nymets11@pacbell.net > > >
