Hi...thank you for answering my querie. I don't think I would be related to those Boyds....but only because Henry Magee and Nora Boyd were married in Ireland and came to America as a couple. To date I do not have evidence that any brothers of hers came to America with them. I would still be interested in finding out, however, so if you could connect me with those people there I would love it! Thank you.....by the way, I have another name I am having trouble with....back in Ayr, Scotland...surname of FAULDS.
