Is Newton Limavady the same as Limavady on the current map? Andrew Kinnear married Letitia Boyd of Letterkenny, Co Donegal. It is assume that she is form the Ballymacool Boyd's who arrived in Letterkenny in 1590. However, she does not appear on the tree that I have for this family. It said below that he married his cousin. So I am not sure if his mother was a Boyd or not. If you have any information on the origins of this family, I would like to hear form you please.
