Patricia, My family has a George Boyette in it. He had a daughter Nancy Boyette who married my Great Grandfather William Lewis Barnes. Nancy was born around 1838-40 in what was then Johnston County (now Wilson county). Your George and mine may be the same. I know only what is listed on the 1850 census for he and his family. His wife was Causia. Let me know if you think we have a connection.
