I need to find some parents for Mr. Beverly Boyd? He was B. abt. 1813 & M.
Martha (Patsy) Boyd (both were Boyds) on 26-Sept.-1829 in Christian Co. Ky.
Martha also M. John Armstrong on 12-Sept-1852. Three of her children with
Beverly were 1) Martha Ann B. abt. 1833(born 4 years after Beverly & Martha
M. which makes me think that there are more children?) who M. John Messamore
in 1849. 2)Keziah who M. Obadiah Ferrell in 1848. 3)Mary Ann (Polly)who M.
Thomas Ferrell in 1850. Polly later M. a Jesse Carmack in Tx. & had 4 sons
Mark,Tom,Jesse & John William (Billy).
Beverly received a Ky. Land Grant (1822-1858)of 160 acres west of the
Tennessee River.
Beverly was crippled (I don't know if he was B. that way or if it was due
injury /sickness) & because of his disability he was exempted from paying
taxes---Order Book G in Christian Co. Ky.
A Mr. Beverly Boyd M. Zylasha Parkerson in McCracken Co. Ky, when he was 36
& in 1849. That makes him abt. the same age as the Beverly in Christian Co.
Beverly was supposed to have died around 1840? It has been suggested that he
divorced Martha & went to McCracken Co.? Some divorced records in Christian
Co. Ky. would clear that up? But I can't do that because I live in south Fl.
It is hoped that someone can find Beverly some parents & any info. would be
appreciated. Tia Cardin
