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.
