I am in Clarksville today but am going to the Haliwa-Saponi pow wow (which is the next county below us) tomorrow. What time will you be here? Give me a call when you get here and I’ll see if we can connect. 252-521-1821.

Hi to all.
Just found this, a bit of history on Boyd.
In early 1730’s, John, Patrick, James and Robert Boyd were in Lunenburg Co on the Dan River at a site where Lawson creek empties into the river on the south side. In 1752 Halifax co is carved out of Lunenburg, the Boyd’s remained residents of Halifax. The Boyd location on the Dan river was known as the John Boyd settlement. The city of South Boston, Halifax Co. was established at a place called Boyd’s Ferry.
John, Pfatrick, James and Robert Boyd were all brothers.
