Looking if information about my wife's great-grandfather, John Boundy. Believe that he came to the U.S. from England in 1854 through Philadelphia. Married to Eliza Jane Riddle of Indiana, appears as farmer in 1870 and 1880 Census, in Peach Orchard, Ford County, Illinois. Fathered 6 children, died in Golden City Mo., Dec. 25 1899. Had an older brother William that followed him to the U.S. in 1856. William's wife, Elizabeth was also from England, but we do not know the location.
If any of the Boundy family have data about the Boundy's of Cornwall and Devon, please contact us.
Thank you
