I started digging into this, and it didn't look like there was going to be a connection. But then when I got back far enough -- if the trees I found are correct -- then that original James Boggs (1667-1737) is Ed Limon Boggs Hayes' 5th great grandfather.

My family descendant from James Boggs but our literature said he immigrated in 1728 from Londonnery not 1720. My ancestors left the Appalachia area prior to the civil war. Their were four sons and my great, great, grandfather were all Confederates, except my great grandfather. First they homesteaded in Clarinda (Southwest) Iowa and the they homesteaded in Eckley Colorado (northeast). My great-great Grandfather, having served in the 23rd Iowa as a blacksmith, and dies in 1920 in Eckley. His son, one of four, , born in Iowa in 1862, owned a grocery, an opera house and was later was constable in Wray, Colorado. My grandfather William Charles Boggs was born in a sod house in Wray, moved with family to Zephyr Hills, Fl. because of his mothers Rheumatiod artheritis.

I am very pleasantly surprised to find such a treasure of information. Thank you for your research and dedication in getting this information out to people. My name is Vicki Boggs Luciano and I teach at The Academy for Leadership at Millcreek Elementary School in Lexington, Kentucky. I had no idea that such a precious family heirloom is on display so close to me at EKU. I will definitely take a 30 minute trip to see that. I can't tell you what a treasure this is. <br /><br />It's interesting that I just wanted to remember the exact location of my grandparents cemetery plot. I went to Find A Grave.com and searched my grandpa's name. From there, I just kept following the links for the fathers. It led me all the way back to the Jame Boggs from Scotland but there was no information. So, I searched his name and dates and places that were available and voila! This blog popped up. Too many coincidences. I'm astounded! Again, thank you for this precious information. vluciano33@gmail.comVicki Boggs Lucianonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945719747276028760.post-62769303582624167032018-05-31T12:26:04.887-04:002018-05-31T12:26:04.887-04:00I'm trying to find out which race or group of ...I'm trying to find out which race or group of people that actually concord and toulk the surname and land from the Boggs colonists before 200 A.D.<br />In which they walled up after the invasion which is now known as a devider between to lands.<br /> Thanks<br />Harold E Boggs 2ndboggsharold270@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10719791667743224821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945719747276028760.post-68475504251088515302018-03-25T23:12:15.265-04:002018-03-25T23:12:15.265-04:00I think I'm related to this set of boggs desce...I think I'm related to this set of boggs descend my daddy was named Robert boggs were from kyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14973311445772412292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3945719747276028760.post-23131033247387207002017-11-21T23:19:55.918-05:002017-11-21T23:19:55.918-05:00Very cool read, count me in as a relative as well!...Very cool read, count me in as a relative as well!
