  • Notes 
    • Robert Boyd appeared on the census of 1790 in Wilkes County, North
      Carolina.

      He appeared on the census of 1800 in Iredell County, North Carolina:
      3m -10, 2m 10-16, 1m 26-45; 1f -10, 1f 10-16, 1f 26-45.

      On 14 Nov 1806 in Iredell Co., North Carolina, Robert Boyd, executor
      of the estate of Robert Bogle, deceased, sold to William Bogal, 220
      acres lying on the south side of the South Yadkin River, joining
      Samuel Bogal, Robert Carson and the wagon road near said Bogle's line.
      A tract of land conveyed to Robert Bogle by James McCollom in 1802.
      Witnesses: John Boyd, Alexander Boyd. Proved Aug. 1808. Registered 27
      Nov 1808.

      On 15 Apr 1809 in Iredell County, North Carolina, Deed Bk G:152,
      Robert Boyd Jr. sold to George Hines, 100a on Lower Little River adj.
      Robert Boyd, Robert Bogle, Samuel Carson. Granted 16 Nov 1790. Wits.
      George Bogle & Obed Parrish. Recorded 17 Aug 1809.

      Robert appeared on the census of 1810 in Iredell County, North
      Carolina:
      3m -10, 2m 10-16, 1m 26-45; 1f -10, 1f 10-16, 1f 16-26, 1f 26-45.

      On 19 Aug 1811 in Iredell County, North Carolina, Deed Bk G:616,
      Robert Boyd to Edward Barnes, 234 a. Muddy Fork of Lower Little River,
      adj. James Morrison, James Watts, part of 200a granted 1792 and the
      whole of 100a patented in 1782. Wits. William Smith and William
      Warren. Recorded 5 Apr 1812. Sometime before 1820, Robert and family
      moved to Kentucky.

      He appeared on the census of 1820 in Trigg Co., Kentucky:
      000001-0000: Robert Boyd 1m +45 -- no one else in household

      The names of his children were said to have come from the bible of
      Josiah Boyd. To date no one has been able to locate the bible. The
      name of Robert Boyd's wife is not known. His appearance in the Bogfle
      records makes one wonder if his wife was related to that family. I
      have also read that his wife was Margaret Gamble, but I have seen no
      proof of that and I have not found any Gamble families near where the
      Boyds lived. (Source: Linda Boyd Lawhon)
