**also fwd to list in case it will help anyone else. Hi Larry, good to hear back from you. Found some stuff at the library last night. There was a book "MARYLAND GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY, VOL 24, 1983 which had a census for the year 1800 for PRINCE GEORGE'S CO MD. It listed a man named ZADOC MCABOY (Last name as spelled) 1231020111004 (free wh. males under 10/10-16/16-26/26-45/45+, free white females under10/10-16/16-26/26-45/45+ ??/ # slaves? _________ My family spelled their name as MCBOY in 1812. I DID find a roster of MCBOY'S 14th REG't of the MISSISSIPPI TERRITORY MILITIA. Diego MCBOY was a MAJOR *(he was my 3rd great uncle) and his brother WILLIAM (aka GUILLERMO) was in the company as a Private. He was my 3rd great grandfather and was also known as "Martin" but no clue why. I did find him listed as G.M. MACABOY in a 1830's petition for GADSEN? to be the first GOV. of FLORIDA. Perhaps his middle name was Martin. Then Diego's obit in the Mobile AL paper lists him as M.DIEGO MCVOY when he died 12-1841. I still wonder if all these "MARTIN" MCBOY and MORTAUGH MCABOY'S are not connected??? Well, found a few oher things, but the spellings were MACVOY, etc. Found a will for a William McOboy of Cork IRE for 1785 (Indexes to Irish Wills, Ed. by Fillimore & Thrif. Also found a list for a Wm MACKBEE who emig. to America in 1732 (Psgr & Immig.Lists Index,Vol2 H-N) Filby & Lower.
