Todd, Hopefully you will get a response from another Boynton researcher... but just in case you don't, this is what I am able to tell you. There was a D.T.Boynton listed as property owner of lot 11, track 6 in Brighton Twp. in the 1857 atlas of LC. Did not find him listed in any census index but then he could have been in another's household and only the head of household was indexed in 1850 & 1860. The BOYNTON h/h in Elyria Twp.,in the 1860 index are: Clarinda p 358; Cobb C. p 378; John H. p 378; Joshua p 344 & 360; Simon p 359; Washington p 379. If you wish to check out all the BOYNTON's in Elyria Twp in the 1850 census, go to the following pages for your research: Bera p 1069; Elbridge p 1063; Joshua p 1069; L.C. p 1049; Simeon p 1076. Good luck in your quest! -- Nancy M. Meyers, Lorain OH
