David, Unfortunately, I don't seem to have any of your family in the Boyd Trees Project. However, if you send me a GEDCOM or FTM file of them, then I could include them as well. Boyd Trees is a data base devoted to any family tree that includes the surname BOYD.

Hullo Natalie... I have just moved to the village of Waipu in northern New Zealand, settled during the 1870's by a break away group from the Church of Scotland led by the Rev. Norman McLeod. In this migration to NZ from Nova Scotia were Boyd family, though not my own. There are in this area still Boyd folk, in fact a Boyd Road, and I wonder if you perhaps are related to these Boyd's from Nova Scotia. They are only a phone call away, so if you wish , and they have an internet connection, you could be put in touch with them.

Matilda d. 1854 in Davidson Co. .. I have recently been given info that there was a John BOYD and Mary ROBERTS who had a dau named Matilda, who resided in Tennessee for a short time before moving to Indiana... the Matilda, dau. of John and Mary, was born a few years off from what I have. Mine is based on census though, and we all know how dependable THOSE are for ages!! : > ) Any help is appreciated!! Lanita Sconce Miller www.lanitasloft.com Shake your family tree and watch the nuts fall!

Our Robert C. Boyd was born in Monroe County,Virginia, but moved to Tennessee between the 1860 and 1870 census. In 1870 census he was listed in 12th District of Robertson County,Tennessee . His post office is listed as ??Barren? Plains. He is listed along with his wife Penelope, George Andrew, Josephine, and Rose Ella. They were also there on the 1880 census, but moved after this census and before1889 to Caldwell County,TX.

Hi Rita, At this time I have nothing to add to the information you gave about your great-grandparents, but will keep my eyes open and get back to you if I find anything. Its possible because of the Terre Haute connection that they could be related. Lura "Ethel" (Robinson) Boyd was a first cousin to my maternal grandmother. Thanks.

"Mary Jane (Mollie) Mattie BOYD", in Ky. is my line,b Aug 31, 1844, d May 02, 1926, she married "Richard Wilson(DeMUNBRUN) DEMONBREUN",b 1852 Cheatham Co, Tn.,Jun 24, 1871, Tn. They had five children, my line is "Emma Celeste Emily (Demonbreun) DEMONTBRUN", b Mar 24, 1883, d July &, 1960, Davidson Co., Tn. "Emma'" first marriage was to "Willoughby HAMPTON", 1900-1903. Which produced my father. "Richard Henry HAMPTON", b 1903, d 1974, Va. My question is ......does anyone have ties to "James John BOYD". He is one of my several brick walls. This has been printed in the "Dean Road", but it's been a while....and no info. Thanks, Mgt.

As much traffic as there is on this list, I don't believe I have ever seen a Tennessee connection to any. Aren't there any Tennessee Boyds out there? Mine are in Maury & Lewis Counties. There is an Andrew, a Laird, and an Ephraim, that I know of. My ancestor, Susannah, who married Enos Wells, was the daughter of unknown Boyd there. Jane Sarles

Hi Sally....good to hear from you. Did you enjoy Conference? We just moved to Orem, Utah in November from Panama City, Florida where we lived for 18 years. And....this is a coincidence, I graduated from high school in Anchorage, Alaska......a long time ago. Anyway...I have a Loyalist ancestor...Henry Magee who came to America pretty early and settled in Pennsylvania. Had a grist mill (didn't everyone???)...refused to grind wheat for the local guys and was thrown in jail....escaped and eventually found his way to Halifax, Nova Scotia. In the meantime....back at the ranch....(the grist mill)...his wife and two children were forced of the land and walked (at least that's the story) with help along the way from Quakers...and eventually was reunited with Henry in Nova Scotia (after a period of about 5 years, I believe). Henry's wife's name was Nora BOYD. I haven't found where they were married yet....it might have been in Pennsylvania....I just don't know for sure. I have a copy of his Loyalist claims, etc....claiming he was from Enniskillen in Ireland...county Armaugh.....and yet, his tombstone says Fermanaugh. I would THINK his Loyalist papers would be accurate. Or, perhaps, he really was born in Fermanaugh and went to Armaugh and left for America from there. Where in Alaska do you live?

Hi Natalie, Small world, isn't it?!! We live in Soldotna, Alaska, on the Kenai Peninsula. I've been here since 1968, having moved from Massachusetts where I still have a sister living. I have a son in Wellsville, Utah, and two more up here. My husband's 6 children are spread out from here to California, New Mexico, Colorado, and Virginia so we make excursions to about everywhere in the U.S. Doesn't look like I can help you much on the BOYD line. My John, although he was a stage (mail) driver and later a constable in Flushing, NY, seems to have dropped in from the sky: his death card says he was born in Wilmington, NC, but after extensive research there we have found no trace of him. Best of luck with your own research; there seem to be BOYDs everywhere! Would love to keep in touch. Sally O.

Been in Utah for General Conference of the Church, so am a little late, but WELCOME, Thomas J. BOYD. My John BOYD goes back to Flushing, NY (d 1865) with a son, Elijah, and family moving to Natchez, Miss. Good luck with your research. Sally O. in Alaska
