Hello to all, Seeking any information on any of the following Boyd families: 1. Washington1 BOYD, son of John Boyd and Dorcas Hendrix, was born circa 1803 Bath, Kentucky. He married Elizabeth BUTLER, daughter of Ignatius BUTLER and Delilah HENDRICKS, on 28 Feb 1825 Bath, Kentucky. Washington & Elizabeth's children were: A. John BOYD was born circa 1828 Bath, Kentucky. B. William BOYD was born circa 1829 Bath, Kentucky. C. Darcus BOYD was born circa 1831 Bath, Kentucky. D. Rolin BOYD was born circa 1832 Bath, Kentucky. E. Delila BOYD was born circa 1835 Bath, Kentucky. F. Elizabeth BOYD was born circa 1838 Bath, Kentucky. G. Fountin BOYD was born circa 1839 Bath, Kentucky. H. Emily BOYD was born circa 1844 Bath, Kentucky. I. Catherine BOYD was born circa 1845 Bath, Kentucky. J. Mary BOYD was born circa 1846 Bath, Kentucky. ******************************************************************************************************************************** 2. Dorcas Boyd (b. about 1830 in Kentucky) married Aaron Vice (b. about 1818 in Kentucky) in Bath County, Kentucky 10 Dec 1846 They moved to Illinois, then back to Kentucky, and then finally settled in Putnam County, Indiana where Dorcas died between 1863 and 1865 after which Aaron remarried. Dorcas & Aaron had 10 children. I'm not going to list their names here since their surname would be Vice, but I have them if would be of help to anyone. It is Dorcas & Aaron's family that I am tracking since their 4th child was my husband's gg grandfather, making Dorcas his ggg grandmother. But I am trying to figure out who Dorcas' parents are. ********************************************************************************************************************************* 3. Roland Boyd (Rolen) who was with Dorcas & Aaron Vice in the 1850 Census in Macon County, Illinois. There is an R. R. Boyd with wife Nancy & daughter Elizabeth in the 1860 Census in Owen Co., Indiana which is just south of Putnam Co., Indiana which is where Dorcas & Aaron are found in the 1860 Census. ********************************************************************************************************************************** My questions concerning these families: Are 2. Dorcas & 3. Roland the same Darcus & Rolin who are the children of Washington Boyd? Washington's 1850 Census has him listed with several children including Darcus & Rolin in Bath Co., KY while in the same Census (1850) Dorcas & Rolen are listed with Aaron Vice in Macon Co., Illinois. Dorcas married Aaron Vice 4 yrs. before the Census was taken so it seems odd that Washington would list his daughter as living with him. It also seems odd that Washington would have a daughter Darcus and a son Rolin and then you would find a Dorcas and a Rolen together in a Census whose ages were about the same as Washington's kids. Does anyone have any more info about Washington Boyd of Bath Co. KY or his children? Are Roland who is with Aaron & Dorcas in Illinois one and the same as R. R. and Nancy Boyd in the 1860 Census in Owen Co., Indiana. Does anyone have any info on either Rolen/Roland or the R. R. Boyd (later censuses give his name as Richard or Rich, though it could be Richard Roland or vice versa) and wife Nancy? Is there another Dorcas Boyd who would might be the Dorcas who married Aaron Vice? Any help (clues) would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much!

I find the information about Boyd Tavern and Boydton interesting. My Boyd connection is a 3rd great grandmother, Elizabeth Boyd. She married George Farrar on 22 Aug 1783 in Mecklenburg Co., VA. I have always felt that she must have been kin to Alexander Boyd mentioned in the article, since he was married to Ann Swepson, daughter of Richard Swepson, Sr. and surety for Elizabeth Boyd's and George Farrar's marriage was Richard Swepson, Jr. I have not been able to establish any conclusive connection. Any help would be appreciated. John F. Walker

Hello all, Since the list is so busy lately, I thought I would ask about my Andrew Boyd again. Here is what is known about him: Andrew Boyd born 1770 in Ireland or Scotland (there is debate about this) died January 11, 1856 in Pike County, Mississippi do not know his wife's name, but his children are: John D. Boyd Isaac Boyd James M. Boyd Jane Herron Boyd Nancy Boyd Simeon Boyd William M. Boyd Jackson Boyd Henry Harvey Boyd Anderson Boyd Nancy Boyd (another one?) Jessie Boyd Some children were born in Jefferson County, Georgia (John D. thru Simeon), William was born in Tennessee, Jackson thru Jessie were born in Mississippi. Does this look familiar to anyone, or do the names ring a bell? Would love to find information on Andrew's parents or other family. Thanks! -~ Jodie ~-

Hi, Question for you...My family of Boyd's are from VA for the past 250 to 300 years. Many were in Grundy, VA, and one ancestor owned what is now known as Bellwood Department of Defense, in Richmond, VA. The officers club was the house. My grandfather was Frazier Talmidge Boyd, Sr. and his ancestors were Robert McReynolds Boyd, Robert Crawford Boyd, most of which were born in Grundy. Are we related? Jennifer Boyd

My Boyds have John, James, William, Thomas, Robert, Mary, Elizabeth, Charles, David and Jane. My Boyds were the children of John Boyd of Northern Ireland. John's parents were Robert Boyd and Jane "Campbell" Boyd from the area around Cork Ireland. I believe John, James, William, Thomas, Robert Mary, and Jane were very common Irish names.
