Hi, I am looking for some help pease if anybody is able to give me any information?
My Grandfather and Grandmother William and Elizabeth Boyd who lived in Fuerty, Roscommon. They had 3 boys, all are deceased now; William, George and John Joe.
I do not know anything about my grandparents and their parents ... would love to do a Family Tree!
Would appreciate any help or information.
I tried to email Tim on here, but email came back to me?
Many thanks

Norah:
I'm not sure I located the correct family. I found a family in the 1901 census who lived in Fuenty parish. Father was William Boyd and his wife was Margaret. Four children including a Willie and a John. This family was Roman Catholic. 1911 census also included. I also found the 1875 marriage of William Boyd and Margaret Carty which shows their fathers names. William was a widower. I also found an 1865 marriage of a William Boyde to a Mary Devine.
Let me know if this is the correct family?

Hello Norah, Was Elizabeth's maiden name Galvin? If so they were married in 1922. Will send the marriage record upon request.
Best Wishes, Dave Boylan

Hello Norah - I may have made an error in previous post, as I do not see it here. I know of your grandparents and we are are distantly related. I've written a family history, and they are mentioned in it. Too lengthy to post. My email is below
