Hi Linda, I am a Leigh Boydell descendant. My ggggrandfather was David Boydell of Pennington and Tyldesley.How are you connected? If I have any queries I will send them to you. I have purchased Barbara Treacy's book "A LINE TO ELLEN", all about the Boydells. I suppose you know about it already. I have also been in touch with John Hesford of Leigh. He is doing a lot of research into the Boydells, and he is on location so to speak. I am sorry I cannot attend your get together, because of the distance involved. I was in Leigh in 2001 doing some research, but there is never enough time. I still have relatives in the area. Well I hope you have a great time and I will think about you all. Yours, Bernie Davies, Ottawa, Canada. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Curry, Linda" <l.j.curry@bham.ac.uk> To: <ENG-LAN-LEIGH-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2003 4:20 AM Subject: [(ENG-LEIGH)] Boydells > I am a Boydell descendent from the Leigh branch of the family and, along > with Mick Boydell from the Clifton Campville side, am trying to organise a > Boydell get together in Grappenhall village the weekend of 20/21 September. > If there are any Boydells out there who have not had this message and are > interested in attending, please let me know. > > I have also recently inherited a large amount of Boydell tree research.
