Boyle Challenge

Our ancestors have been doing genealogy since the 1830's so we think it has all been done. Well, think again! :) We have one line that ends with John McKinley/McKinlay, he is Henry G. Boyle's father-in-law and Arabella McKinley's father. It has been said he is a cousin to US President William McKinley. John McKinley was born 5 Jan 1795 in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia and died 12 July 1859, Burlington, Des Moines, Iowa. We need to find who his parents are and any other information we can get on him. He was married to Elizabeth Dixon and we have her genealogy. Happy hunting and please let us know what you find.

Janet and Chuck's move to Las Vegas

Janet and Chuck, we are glad you live closer to all of us here in Arizona. Maybe we can get together more often.

We appreciate the comments from all of you. I wish I knew how to show all the "comments" on the front page. But I am still learning how to use this site and unless any of you can help me I will just have to muddle through it. -Betsy

Family websites

If any of you have a website you would like published on this family site, send it to me and I will be glad to include it.
This was taken at a Boyle reunion in the late 1960's at Camp Joy, East Verde, We were getting ready to go to the swimming hole. We actually rode there with our feet dangling off the back of the truck. It wasn't too far but very rugged. Some of you may remember.

Hi to my Boyle cousins, I am starting this blog for many reasons. I think it will be easier to use and add comments, and it is free. The other website is still up and going but I am not sure how long it will be as renewal is in November. I just thought I would give this a try and see how everyone likes it. Please let me know what you think. Just click on the word comment and write in a message then hit publish ~Betsy
