Hi Listers, Since I have no names in my direct tree that seem to have passed any amount of time in Boswyck, I did not spend a lot of time perusing those records. I did, however, spot one list, from 1701 which caught my eye and I could not resist, probably because of the mention of "heavy piece of eight". It was something different than the usual pounds sterling or guilders. The URL is: http://notmyfamily.pbworks.com/w/page/40982114/FrontPage Renee L. Dauven PS...Ok, I admit it: it made me think of the theme song to Walt Disney's Hardy Boys series, "The Applegate Treasure", as first heard on the Mickey Mouse Club. So much for the careful, thoughtful and scholarly selection of material!
