One of the highlights of my recent trip to Ireland and Scotland was to see the grave of the Rev William Boyd at Taughboyne Parish Church, Churchtown, County Donegal, Ireland. While some details are still available to read. He was the Minister who went to Boston in 1718 to see if some 300 families from Ulster would be welcomed in New England Colony. Two men were in the process of cleaning the graveyard. I was TOLD by a lady in Colertaine, whom was unsure of where she got the information from [Always write the source when you copy] that Rev. William Boyd was educated at Edinburgh. >From my notes, I think it was that he married Eliz Douglas. HOWEVER, I am not sure from the way it is written down if this Eliz. Douglas might be the wife of his father. So people will need to be carefull when using this. She thought it came form one of the Mullans book, but was not sure. Has anyone got any more information on his possible marriage. This I assume took place between 1705 and 1715. Mike Boyd Historical Committee, HBS
