Re: Ballaugh connections?
In Response To: Re: Ballaugh connections? ()

Hi Sarah
Yes - indeed I do remember meeting up with you in the Manx Museum.
In addition to the Boyde family tree I have just a few family photos, now on a CD of:
Martha Louisa Quayle (my great grandmother)
Elizabeth Boyde (my grandmother)
Catherine Ann Boyde
I also have an old black & white neg of Robert E Boyde which I am hoping to get printed at some stage.
A major interest to myself and my brother was the sad, but fascinating life of John James Boyde (our great uncle). We now have all his details documented in a 32 page pdf file.

Another great uncle - William Ernest Boyde remains somewhat of a conundrum. He was born in 1884 in Patrick. He also emigrated to Western Australia with John James Boyde around 1915. As far as I know he subsequently returned to England and during the 1950's lived in a caravan somewhere. I would love to know more about him.

Perhaps it would be better for me to call in at Ballaugh on the 15th July and show you what I have - if that is OK with yourself?
