Parents
Biography
- Birth: 30 January 1869; Hastings County, Ontario
- Note: The 1901 census gives birth date of 30 Jan 1869. However, in 1881 she was said to be 16 years old, and hence it is assumed that her birth year was incorrectly stated in 1901 (it was fairly common for spinster daughters ages to be underestimated). I suspect she was born in 1865.

"History of Mercer County", 1888, p. 1110:
GEORGE BOYD, farmer, post-office Sandy Lake, was born May 28, 1844, in New Vernon Township. His father, Joseph Boyd, was born in County Cork, Ireland, April 22, 1808, to James and Jane (Haggertie) Boyd. Robert Boyd was the first to settle in this county, and was engaged for some time in the hardware business in Mercer. He was a plasterer and a cooper, and, while on his way to this county from Philadelphia, while employed at his trade, he became acquainted with and married Isabella Butler. He was killed by the fall of his brick house in West Virginia. The Boyds and their relatives came to Mercer County in the following order: John Phipps and his wife, Dora Boyd, who settled in Cool Spring Township; Edward Boyd and wife, Betsy Jennings, who located in Fairview Township; John Jennings and wife, Mary Boyd, who settled in Cool Spring Township; and in 1821 came James A. Boyd and wife, and his father and mother, James and Elizabeth (Atkins) Boyd; Archibald Boyd and wife, Elizabeth McGivern; Henry Boyd, and the children of James A.: Thomas, Henry, William, Archibald, Joseph, James, Robert, Elizabeth, Mary and Dora. Isaac Waugh married Frances Boyd, a sister of James A., and came to this county, and later moved to Iowa. Joseph Boyd, a brother of James A., emigrated here from Ireland, and subsequently went back to his native country for a son whom he had left, and was never heard of afterward. His wife, son and daughter moved to Michigan. Joseph Boyd was married to Rhoda Axtell, by whom he had Ezra, Caroline, George, Euphramy J. (wife of Robert Dunlap), William H. and Milton E. Joseph Boyd was employed on the canal from Franklin to Meadville for three years, and also on a canal near Cleveland. He bought land in New Vernon Township, where he lived for over fifty years. He helped to build the Mercer court-house. His wife, after a lingering illness of twelve years, was relieved of her sufferings by death in 1874. She was a devoted member of the Presbyterian Church. Mr. Boyd united with the Methodist Episcopal Church in 1825, and for twenty years was blind in one eye and is now totally blind. He is a man of exceptionally good memory, pure character and an earnest, Christian. He is a stanch Republican, and must be taken to every election. George Boyd was educated in the common schools, and has always farmed and bought and sold stock. He was married December 23, 1875, to Martha J. Elliott, born November 25, 1858, in Pittsburgh, to John and Mary (Smith) Elliott, who came to this county in 1864, and settled in New Vernon Township. Her parents have had the following children: William H., book-keeper in Pittsburgh; John F., engaged in cutting glass in the same city; Lizzie A., married William Young, superintendent of the S. S. Marvin cracker factory, Pittsburgh; Maggie, married Robert D. Kerr; Albert J., a glazer of glass in Allegheny
City; Thomas J., Josephine B. and Mary M., who are at home. Her parents are members of the United Presbyterian Church at Sandy Lake. Mr. and Mrs. Boyd have had three children: Fred (dead), Mabel E. and Joseph Elliott. Mr. Boyd has been assessor, and is a Republican. Further mention is made of the family in the general history.
