Welcome
Bit early for Irish Records but there are some Boyce still in that area in 1830 in the Applotment Books.

The one thing I would like to find out is the name of Patricks father..records indicate his father's name was Joseph Henry Boyce from England..but I cannot find records to show that

hello Jim, your query reminded me of a response I had to my Slevin query on Irelandxo on the Donegal message board (page 8 on Donegal messages) over 1year ago.
The person who responded had the name of Boyce. This is what he said,Nancy Slevin/Slavin after her husband Michael died,emigrated with her seven sons, Patrick,James,John(Jack),William,Henry,Michael,Owen and one daughter Catherine to Saint Elzear,Quebec. They settled on six adjoining farms in the Saint-Olivier Range(Road),I haven,t  written all of what he wrote,but it might be worth having a look on Irelandxo and read the message yourself, its the Donegal message board page 8,it took me a while to find it again.
Also there is a family tree on Ancestry and I think it is from the same person, there are photos as well. unfortunately this wasn,t my line of Slevins as mine as far as I have researched are from Goladdoo,Donegal.  Hope this helps!

Yes I remember that posting..I have all the records of the Boyce/Slevin years and the immigration stuff..what I am wanting to find out is who and where of the Father of Patrick Boyce..Michaels Father
and that would date back to around 1718
