Yes. The inability to archive messages means any submission and subsequent answers or info will be forever lost. Folks need to switch and start any new conversations on the new email list. Richard may also not be able to save the old messages so if people can find and save their own emails it will allow for some archiving. Admins on Rootsweb are not able to get a clear answer on how to save the past data. Typical Ancestry screwup if u ask me.

Good morning all In the last week, I was sent this Boyd family by Terry Boyd of Wailiki, Perth, Western Australia, that is thought to have come from Scotland. It is another of those Church of England (Church of Ireland or Episcopal) group that seem to have come out of Scotland in the 1600’s, but we do not know where they came from or whom these people are. Or to what Boyd Cadet Branch they may belong to in Scotland. Late last year on another Net list, I was told that those people that supported King Charles I (and perhaps Charles II) in Scotland were Church of England – but I have no data to support this. The family looks like it was living in Holborn, London – between Soho and Covent Garden from about 1800 (?) In the 1700’s it would appear this family were living around St Martin in the Field, which I understand is near Trafalgar Square and is about a mile (?) south of Holborn. [dates are rough guess??] A1 James Boyd, b / /1668 (St Martin in the Fields), d / /17xx (town, etc), m 169x (church, etc), Mary Andrews, dau of ?????, b 1670 (town, etc), d / /17xx (town, etc) [Lived: , London ] B1 Thomas Boyd, b 31/8/1698 (St Martin, London), d 10/12/1726 (town, etc), bu , m / /171x (church, etc), Elizabeth Kilbourne, dau of ?????, b 1690 (town, etc), d / /17xx (town, etc), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: , London ] - Strange that Elizabeth is born 8 years before Thomas? C2 Charles Boyd, b / /1720 (town, etc), d / /17xx (town, etc), bu , m / /173x (church), Charlotte ????, dau of ??????, b / /1722 (town, etc), d / /17xx (town, etc), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: , London ] D1 Charles Boyd, b / /1740 (town, etc), d / /17xx (town, etc), bu , m ? [Lived: , Halifax, Nova Scotia after 17xx ] First Branch C1 James Boyd, b 6/9/1716 (town, etc), d 6/10/1771 (town, etc), bu , m / /174x (church, etc), Ann Jenkins, dau of ????? , b 16/8/1720 (town, etc), d /4/1808 (????, London), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: , London ] D1 James Boyd, b 17/1/1742 (town, etc), d /5/1826 (town, etc), bu , m / /176x (church, etc), Ann Chitty, dau of ?????, b /1/1742 ( , London), d /2/1838 (town, etc), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: , London ] E1 James Boyd, b 9/9/1764 (town, etc), d /12/1800 ( , London), bu , m / /179x (church, etc), Charlotte Carolina Lattemer, dau of ??????, b / /1775 (town, etc), d /11/1864 ( , London), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: , London ] F1 James John Boyd, b 20/9/1797 ( , London), d /5/1866 (town, London), bu Cem. Hornsey, London, m / /182x (church, etc), Jane Balinger, dau of ?????, b 2/7/1797 (Walthmstow, Essex), d /5/1866 ( , London), bu Cem. Hornsey, London, and had issue:- [Lived: , London ] G1 James Balinger Boyd, b 30/12/1827 (Holborn, London), Bapt 27/1/1828 (St Andrew, Holborn, London), d 21/11/1903 (Perth, WA), bu , Perth, m / /185x (church, etc), ?? [Lived: , Perth, WA ] Came to Perth, Australia in 1851? But with this tree span of seven generations – for this direct tree – could mean that quite a number of other Boyd families, may connect to it through both male or female children. With the first James Boyd, being born in 1668, this would put him a generation ahead of George Boyd (1691-1731) of Compass, PA and his elder brother John Boyd (b 1687), whom married in London in 1712, Mary Stewart, whom both came from Airth, Stirlingshire. But until we can find out where this James Boyd born in 1668 family came form in Scotland before then, it is hard to draw any connections. Terry has not yet told me what they were doing in London from 1668 to 1851. So, that data may also help to link this family to your London Boyd family. If you have any Boyd family in London over this period, please let the list known. These locations are between Trafalgar Square and St Pauls. Good hunting Mike Boyd Brisbane, Aust.

Good morning all Yesterday, I received this private message from Judith Harper of New Zealand “Hello Mike I wonder if you have accessed these obituary indexes from the County Monaghan library? They date from abt 1839 until later 1900s. I've been looking through the lists for my HARPER family and did note that there are plenty of BOYD names there. https://monaghan.ie/library/index-to-obituaries/ There are several papers included but the main one is 'The Northern Standard' - very useful and theres a bit about how to apply for any obits you identify and want copies of. Regards' Judith Harper Nelson, NZ” I am trying to do two other family trees at present, so I have not had time to look at this website to see what Boyds are listed. I do not know very much about County Monaghan, Ireland from the point of view of Boyd History and its own history. Or when Boyds arrived in this part of Ulster. I do know that Boyds arrived in County Down in 1606; in County Armagh in 1618 (or before); in County Tyrone in 1609 and there were Boyds in County Antrim from 1560. So, any Boyd settlement in County Monaghan could be in the early 1600’s. Please let the list know if you find any family in this website Thank you for your assistance.

Good morning all Are there any members of this list researching any Boyd family in Buncombe County, South Carolina? This County was formed in 1791 from Bourke and Rutherford Counties. So, any Boyds living there prior to 1791 may be “referenced” to those two Counties and not to Buncombe Co., NC. So, could you tell the list and myself, if you have Boyd families in Buncombe County – in its various forms – so we can help to sort of which family belongs to whom. AND TO FIND OUT IF ALL THESE EARLY BOYD FAMILIES IN BUNCOMBE COUNTY, CAME FORM COUNTY TYRONE, IRELAND!! Thank you for your assistance Mike Boyd Chairman Historical Committee Clan Boyd Brisbane, aust.

Good morning all Wilson Boyd of Buncombe Co, NC While taking data from both Volumes of The Heritage of Old Buncombe County, [NC], to put into the family of James Boyd and Rachel McGill – both from County Tyrone – I copied this Reynold’s family - In The Heritage of Old Buncombe County, [NC], Volume 1, 1981, ed Doris Cline Ward, pp 309-310, article # 539 on the Abraham Reynolds Family of Bent Creek Buncombe County NC and for his 11th child it says – “Susanah, born May 16, 1812, died 1865, married Wilson Boyd. They lived in Buncombe Co., and had a family of nine children.” There is no data on this Wilson Boyd, or whom his parents might be and the names of his nine children. We can make some “educated” GUESSES from the limited data on Susanah Reynolds. With her birth on 16 May 1812, this would suggest that Wilson was most likely born between 1800 and 1810 but no location is given. And it would appear they married in the 1830’s, but does not say which Church or locations. Assume in Buncombe Co., NC? So, is he a second Boyd family of Buncombe County, NC to the family of James Boyd and Rachel McGill and their two known sons – James Berry Boyd, b 1798 and Robert McGill Boyd, b 1800 – or could be a third son, how for whatever reason is not listed in James Boyd’s will of December 1840? Has anyone come across Wilson Boyd before? And can they provide any details about his family? Thank you for your assistance in determining where this Wilson Boyd’s family fits.

Good morning all Boyd of Sandy Mush Creek, Buncombe County, NC, now Madison Co., NC James Boyd is said to have been born in 4 February 1769 in Ireland (County unknown at this time), and died 12 November 1852 – assume at Sandy Mush creek area, Buncombe County, North Carolina. He is said to have first settled in Mecklenburg County, NC, perhaps with two brothers John Boyd and David Boyd. On 18 December 1794 he married Rachel McGill in Lincoln County, NC, who also came from County Tyrone. He is said to have purchased land on the Bee Tree Creek in Buncombe County, NC in 1806. And he is thought, later to have brought some 1,000 acres at Sandy Mush Creek, and were neighbours to each other. James and Rachel, only have two known sons – James Berry Boyd, born 7 August 1798 and Robert McGill Boyd born 23 October 1800. But the four – year gap between their marriage and James Berry Boyd’s birth would normally suggest that one or two children were born in this period. But James’s, the father, will in December 1840 only mentions these two sons and no daughters. There is an reasonable structure for the descendants of these two sons which is being developed. However, at this time, nothing seems to be known about the possible two brothers of James Boyd, born 1769 – John and David Boyd. So, is anyone researching these two names in North Carolina in the late 1700’s. It is thought they came in from Ireland through Charleston, South Carolina? So, are there any passenger list available for the Port of Charleston, SC in the 1700’s? And does anyone know of “any” Boyd families in Mecklenburg, Lincoln, Burke, Madison Buncombe and Haywood Counties that maybe lined to this James Boyd – especially any John Boyd and David Boyd? Thank you for your assistance in building this family tree Mike Boyd Chairman Historical Committee Clan Boyd

Mike Boyd of Queensland has suggested to me that I forward part of my Boyd family. It all starts with James John Boyd ( he was a barristers clerk)b 2 July 1797 and died May 1866 and buried at Hornsey in London his wife was Jane Balinger she was born in Walthamstow in Essex 20 September 1797 and died December 1865 she also is buried in Hornsey. Their children are as follows. 1. Charlotte Ester Boyd born 24 November 1823 in Holborn London as was the birth place for all the siblings. Charlotte died on the 5th of March 1909 in Hendon . 2. William Liddelow Boyd was born 6 October 1825 and died 7 November 1861 in Hendon Middlesex. 3.James Balinger Boyd (my great grandfather) was born 30th December 1827 again in Holborn and died 21st November 1903 in Leederville Western Australia he had on his death certificate that he had been in Western Australia for 50 years but at this point I have been unable to locate his immigration status and what ship he arrived in. 4 Elizabeth Jane Boyd born 27 March 1830 in Holborn she died May 1854 in Hornsey. 5 Stephen Stagg Boyd was born 28 July 1833 in Holborn, he joined the Merchant Navy at the age of 16 years and I think he died in Livingston County in Missouri in USA. 6 Emma Boyd was born 23 June 1840 in Holborn and died 9 November 1903 in Walden in Essex. If any person in our great family can help me in any way to expand on this family I would be most grateful. Terry Boyd 9 Blair Court Waikiki 6169 Western Australia

Mike, Believe you me, I would be one of those people putting up strangers. I am a humanitarian above all things. I might have spoken in error about Aussie's possibly being considered as refugees....one must look at the definition. However, I do think however, given what climate change has bought about one might have to re-think about this. Again - but for the "Grace of God" this has never happened to me - but it could happen to any one person at any time......
