1821 Feb Spencer Boyd- Richard Boyd mentioned Re: Road



"Richard Boyd dies in Bath Co. in 1825 and wills his land to son George and
wife Mary and 'other children,' whom he does not list. Jasper Clayton gives
security for the will, and Mary and son George are named executors There is a
Richard who marries Polly Downie in Bourbon County about 1800, -that might be
the Bath Co., Richard.
Richard shows up in the Montgomery County 1800 census. He’s listed in the
1811 Bath County tax list as owning 100 Acres on Prickly Ash. He still owns
the 100 acres on Prickly Ash in the 1823 tax list, and he buys more land on
Prickly Ash in 1824 (Deed book D). He’s in the Bath County 1810 and 1820
censuses.
Spencer the older makes Richard his attorney in 1816 because Spencer seems to
be leaving town for a while and he wants Richard to collect his wages for
militia work. Drury Birge is a witness: this would be DB I, I think because
DB II wouldn't be old enough probably."
