    About 1817, John and ten of his children moved to Stewart Co.,Tenn.
    There he purchased 271 acres on the north bank of Green Tree Grove
    Creek, about a mile south of the Trigg Co., Ky. line. This land
    remained in the family until 1880. John purchased the land from land
    speculator Joshua Cates who had acquired it from a recipient of a
    North Carolina grant given to Revolutionary veterans. By 1850, only

    173 Will of John Boyd: wife Elizabeth Boyd; executor is R. W. Boyd;
    wit: Richard Hudson, James Mathis; written 20 Oct 1852,
    proven Feb. term 1853
    173 letters of administration to R. W. Boyd to execute the will of
    John Boyd; 7 Feb 1853
    176 Robert W. Boyd, John A. Lisenby, Samuel L. Gentry, executor's bond

    bond for William Cross; 6 Feb 1853
    395 receipt from R. W. Boyd, executor of John Boyd, for sale of land
    belonging to the estate; 1 May 1854

    John's Will was probated on 7 Feb 1853 in Stewart Co., TN.

    Court of March 8, 1853, Elizabeth petitioned for the sale of the
    land, the court allowing 40 days grace before demanding an auction of
    the property. Robert apparently bought the land, but on May 1, 1854,
    Book 13, P. 237, he sued the heirs for the purchase money. Court
    directed money be put in Robert's hand for use by Elizabeth, and that
    title be divested from the heirs and bestowed on Robert.

    In 1880, Robert sold the land to W.H. Johnson who, in 1884, sold it
    to W. J. White. In 1942 the Whites sold the land to the U.S.
    Government for use by Fort Campbell. The grave sites of
    John and Elizabeth have not been located. The U.S. Army Engineers
    moved all cemetaries off the Military Reservation, and while some
    effort was made to record new burial sites, the Boyds, Hudsons and
    Mathis names do not appear. Many of their neighbors were interred in
    the Red Top/Fairview Cemetary about a mile south of Highway 79 on the
    Needmore Road. Many of the markers are eroded, fallen or covered with
    detritus. This is the most probable site for the Boyd burial site.
