Message for Historyclass... The Boyle's of Landagivey were not known to be Blacksmith's. The Boyle's of nearby Mullaghmore, Agivey were the known Blacksmith's. Robert (1852 - 1936) and son James (1893 - 1989) were the last two Blacksmith's in Mullaghmore, Agivey. (Photo of headstone available but too large for this forum). Robert's father may well have been James Boyle. He is shown on the Griffith's Valuation (published between 1847 and 1864) living in Mullaghmore, Agivey with 'house, forge and land' (copy attached).

See the 1901 and 1911 Irish Census returns (free online) for Boyle's in Agivey parish.

Further to my last posting:

Robert Boyle of Agivey, Blacksmith lies also in Row 6 Plot 3.
Presumably the father of Jim.

The Dan McKaigney mentioned earlier in Row 10 Plot 1 has a large plot, 18ft by 10ft.
Consequently, Rose and Susan Boyle of Glasgort lie between Plot 1 and Plot 2 in Row 10.

For your research interest, Rebecca Boyle's old home survived the construction of the Mullaghmore Airfield in 1941 and still stands in a small copse of trees in Landagivey.

In St Mary's RC graveyard, Cullycapple Road lies the following:

WJ Boyle of Garvagh & Landagivey d. 8 Feb 1943, Row 1 Plot E
Hugh & Rebecca Boyle of Landagivey, Row 1 Plot 7
William Boyle of Landagivey, Row 5 Plot 8
Jim Boyle of Agivey, Blacksmith, Row 6 Plot 3
Dan McKaigney & Susan Boyle of Drumale, Row 10 Plot 1
Unnamed Boyle of Mullaghmore, Row 11 Plot 2

In the ancient south east section lies Tom Boyle of Glasgort, a weaver. Row 1 Plot 5

That's all I have for now.
