Comfit of John Boyd
The Picture of John Boyd I created using his description in http://www.founders-storylines.com/mugsheets/convicts/profile/ai06351/john_boyd
John was a carpenter looking for work and ended up on the other side of the wold in a place called VAN DIEMANS LAND “VDL”. Although he is not a member of my family tree I have tried to do a fair research of him and his time as a convict, I feel there is still much to do on him and hope that one of his descendants will complete his story. I hope you enjoy reading about his story so far.
