When I was in Ireland in 2005, I copied from Irish Landed Gentry, John O'Hart, 1968, in an effort to find the Capt Adam Boyd mentioned in several Boyd families born in the early 1600's On page 372 (from what appear the same book) It ha:- 10- The "Forty-nine" Officers. (to the Arrears of the Commissioned Officers who served Charles II or Charles I) On page 375, it has these Boyd listed:- Boyd, Adam, Boyd, Lieut. Adam Boyd, Quarter-Master Adam Boyd, Capt Archbold Boyd, George Boyd, Major George Boyd, Ensign Gilbert Boyd, Robert Boyde, Adam Boyde, Thomas. (I am not sure what it means when they did not have any rank against their names). Does anyone belong to any of these Boyd and secondly do you know where they may have come from in Ireland. Thank you Mike Boyd Historical Committee, HBS

I am trying to find where in Ireland Andrew Moore's family may have lived before they came to America in 1723 in the hope that I can connect the Boyd family of Mary Elizabeth Boyd to the same location in Ireland. It is thought that this Boyd family came to Lancaster Co., PA and them moved onto York Co., PA.

I have been reading son of North Antrim Families By T. J. G. Bennett of 1974 which outlines several Mure/Moore families. I am currently trying to explore the THEORY that the Boyds and Mures of Rowallan MAY HAVE COME to Ireland at the same time. This Mure came to Ireland:- "John Moore, emigrated from Ayrshire to Ballinacree in 1612 b 1588 d 1648" While an James Moore of Ballydivity (2 kms north of Derrykeighan) was born there in 1667. While others settled at Kilraghts (But I can't find the date at present) While there were Boyds in Dunluce before 1624, at Derrykeighan in 1615 and to the east and west of Dervock in 1614 P1 Capt Adam Boyd, bc 1616-1636 ( ), d / /16xx ( ), bu , m / /16xx, before 1656, ( church, place), wife not given, dau of and (nee ) ???, b 16xx ( ), d / /16xx ( ), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: likely Ireland ] - Q1 John Boyd, b / /1656 ( , Ireland), d / /17xx ( ), bu , m / /1686 (church, place), Miss Moore, dau of James Moore, Sr., of Ireland, b 16xx ( ), d / /17xx ( ), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: , Ireland? ] - As their son Samuel's [R1] eldest daughter is called Mary, it is possible that Miss Moore's first name might have been Mary. >From the 1994 IGI for the UK:- John BOYD (M)............ S: Abt 1660 B: 19 Sep 1989 ARIZO Ba: F511230 39 @^- Spouse: Miss MOORE Of,, Antrim, Ireland E: 26 Sep 1989 ARIZO So: 1553467 R1 Samuel Boyd, b / /1689 ( ), d / /1770 ( ), bu , m / /1720 (church, place), Margaret Campbell, dau of and (nee ) Campbell, b / /1695 ( ), d / /17xx ( ), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: ] - He came with John (S5) - what other children - to America in 1736. I think that perhaps the Mures/Moores and the Boyd MAY HAVE MIGRATED TO Ireland at the same time from the same place in Ayrshire I am trying to find which more "James Moore, Sr., of Ireland" came form the various branches of Moores. It would appear that the first John Boyd who came to Ireland in 1612 hade this son and descendants:- iia James Moore b 1638 d 1701 ib William Moore iib James Moore iiib Joseph Moore ivb Andrew Moore, emigrated to Pennsylvania in 1723 b 1688 d 1753. (His grandson Jeremiah Moore, b 1745 d 1813, who emigrated from Pennsylvania to Canada in 1788, was great great great great grandfather of Keith V. Moore of 483 Merton St., Toronto 198) This Andrew Moore could be the father of:- S1 Mary Elizabeth Boyd, b / /1721 ( ), d / /17xx ( ), bu , m / /173x (church, place), William Moore, Sr., son of Andrew and Margaret (nee Wilson) Moore, b / /1710 ( ), d / /1798 ( ), bu , and had issue:- [Lived: ] - Did this family also come to the USA?

A site that has helped me in the search for towns and townlands in Northern Ireland is _www.seanruad.com_ (http://www.seanruad.com) . I don't recall seeing the site mentioned recently but it is an excellent site. Searches can be conducted in many ways. i.e. names starting with, anywhere in the name, found at the end of the name, etc. Searches can also be narrowed down by Parish, County, Poor Law Union and Provinces.

Hi Ray Comcast have bounced my reply to you as spam - presumably as we have been using the same subject line in the e-mails. I have tried to contact them but I'm not sure if that will work. Can you clear it? Murray

I am sure that I must have noticed this before - it is a while since I looked up a townland - but I have just been looking up a townland location on the Proni maps and realised that the numbers on the lists and those on the maps do not match. Using the numbers, Portglenone does not make any sense. If I am interpreting the faint numbers correctly, it shows Casheltown and Kilcurry (which are near New Ferry) to the north of Aughnahoy (which is just outside Portglenone). The lists are numbered in alphabetic order and the maps are numbered south to north - I doubt our ancestors where quite as symmetrical as this! Am I totally missing something and are there any other sources with accurate townland maps?

Joanne - The WILSON mentioned on the list is interred in the Burial Ground of the Buick family at the Cullybackey Old Methodist Church, and is noted as part of the text on a marker erected by an Alexander Buick...noting the presence in the plot of his wife, his sister, his father, his mother, his grandfather and his grandmother, all named Buick. But also noted on the marker is "...His Great-Grandson Wm. Gary Wilson Died in Infancy 6th Oct 1970." This is the only Wilson catalogued in this cemetery. This is of some interest to me, not because of the Wilson name, but because it describes a Buick family. My presumed Wiseman cousin, Wesley J. Cathcart, now of Ballymena, also has ancestral family ties to a Buick family, but I'm not sure itt is the same set of Buicks. Wes' Wiseman ancestors were from the nearby town of Broughshane.

Hi Mike Boyd, Andrew Moore is an ancestor of my husband. We have included a chapter in the book I published in 1991 on the Moore family. Andrew Moore lived in Ballymena, County Antrim, Ireland. He was born 1688 and died 1753. He married Margaret Miller. They came to America and we have visited his home in Chester Co., PA. The Quaker church he helped to establish was in Lancaster Co., PA. Is this the same Andrew Moore you are researching?

Members of the Antrim lists. Bob Wilson and myself are pleased to offer to look up gravestone inscriptions in the burying ground at Cullybackey Old Methodist Church which is about 5Km (3 miles) north west of Ballymena. For most of its existence the church has been a Presbyterian church with close links to The United Free Church of Scotland. The inscriptions will be taken from a booklet published at Ballymena some 10 years ago. Bob will deal with requests for surnames beginning A to K. He will send his names to the list shortly. I will deal with those in the following list. Please email queries to me directly at N.E.Parkes@btinternet.com Norm The surnames that I will look up are: LAVERTY (x2) (see also Alexander) LECKEY LEE (see Stevenson#3) LIVINGSTON LOGAN (x3) McCLENAGHAN McCLOY McCONAGHIE McCRORY (x2) McCULLOUGH (see Wiseman) McDOWELL McFALL (see Laverty#2) McKEOWN McKILLEN (see also Davidson) McKILLOP McSEVENEY (see Coleman) McWILLIAMS MAXWELL MILLAR (x2) MONTGOMERY MOORE (see also Russell) MURDOCK MURRAY NEELY NEILEY O'RAW ORR (x6) PETERS RAINEY (x2) RICHMOND ROCK RUSSELL (see also Coleman) SANDS SIMPSON (x2) SMITH (x2) SPEERS STEELE STEVENSON (x3) STEWART (x4) STIRLING (x2) THOMPSON (x2) TORRENS (see Kennedy#2) TURTLE WALKER (see Johnston) WATT (see Davidson) WILKINSON WILSON (see Buick) WISEMAN WYLIE (see Leckey)

I cannot decipher yet another piece of information on a marriage certificate from Belfast. The handwriting is too erratic. My great-grandfather's place of residence is listed as "Bally - (something). I realize there are tons of Bally--- towns out there. I'm not even sure if this place is a town or parish or what. The place names in NI are very confusing for a novice. This one looks like Ballyfomastin? Ballyformastin? Starts with "Bally" and ends in "in". Any suggestions? Eireann
