WHAT A BULLY. Colin Brocks is not claiming to represent the House of Boyd Society, he simply set up an new Boyd site when it was announced that rootsweb.com announced it was closing all their sites. Mrs McLachlan announced to the Boyd net list – that she controls tightly – that there was no need for any new Boyd site and a new rootsweb.com will be formed. Well the Boyd rootsweeb.com site will close in a few hours and those few that have been posting to her controlled site will have no place to post their Boyd queries. I have known Colin for about 18 years, or more. In 2013, he took me around parts of eastern PA as we tried to find additional Boyd family data. And it was not until after I had been illegally expelled from the House of Boyd society, that I found out that he was not a member of the House of Boyd. When I ask people to contribute their family to the Clan Boyd Pyramid, over the last 35 years, I have never asked what society they belong to Mrs McLachlan only represents 135 people of several hundred thousand Boyd and Boyd descendants. Not a ringing endorsement of her 22 years of President out of the 32 years of the Society’s existence. If you are one of these 135 members, in October 2021, you can vote out Mrs McLachlan from her position of trying to bully ALL CALN BOYD MEMBERS. It will not work. And she and her gang of three will not be welcomed at CBSI.
