I am interested in BOYES stemming from East London. -----Original Message----- From: south-africa-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:south-africa-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Keith Meintjes via Sent: 10 November 2014 09:06 AM To: Ines Mannhardt; SA List Subject: Re: [SOUTH-AFRICA] Family interest Ines, I am interested in (not related to) the family of Robert Nairne Boyes (perhaps French: Bois) who was a magistrate in the 1800s. The family includes the engineer of Boyes Drive, the upper road from Kalk Bay to Muizenberg, and also the watercolor artist, Harold (Henderson) Boyes. I am in contact with some members of this Boyes family in Cape Town and Johannesburg. The basic genealogy of this family is in SA Genealogies Vol. 1.

He married Ellis Harbert in 1696, Ann Drinkow in 1719. They had 8 children. His son William Boyes, about 1695 - 1740, married Rachel Craven. They had 10 children. His son Bethuel II Boyes, 1732-1810, married Mary Etherington and Milcah Drinkow. He had 11 Children. His son Robert Boyes, 1770-1813, married Anna Löning and Christine Magdalene Coch. He left England in 1792 for Bremen. He had 6 children. Their son James Bethuel Boyes, 1804-1879, married twice, Permelia Sophie Adeline Vogel and Margaretha Rebecca Heineken. James Bethuel was born and died in Bremen, Germany. He had 11 children, all with P.S.A. Vogel. Their son Robert Boyes, 1835 - 1908, married Hedwig Marie Mathilde Fritze in Bremen, German, 1838 - 1922. They had 5 Children, Paul Robert was in Nicaragua first, then moved to San Francisco. Their son, Richard, is my great grandfather. He stayed in Yokohama until 1915 and then joined his brother Paul Robert. He had 2 children with a Japanese woman, we don't know if they were married or not, even the great grandson does not know. Richard Boyes, 1867 - 1928 (died in San Francisco, Ca). His 1st wife (possibly the 2nd), was Annie Metcalfe Sands, my great grandmother. Their son, Alfred Boyes, 1901 - 1929, he was born in Yokohama, Japan, died in Bremen, Germany. He married my grandmother, Ilse Marie Mannhardt (adopted), they had 2 daughters, one of them my mother. I have the names and dates, etc. for the all the other children as well, I just sent you my direct line. If you want it all or you have some specific questions, send them my way. Some other Boyes moved to the US, I have some information, not all of it. I know some 2nd cousins live in California, or used to, can't find them. My great grandfather married again in San Francisco and had 2 children. Her name was Letitia Lacayo. The descandants of the son are my elusive cousins. The daughter did not have children that I could find. Her name was Marie Letitia. I also found a request to emigrate to Russia in the database of "Die Maus", the genealogical society in Bremen. I would love to find them. A lot of the early information comes from the Boyes one name study.
