Hello,
Just wondering if you have any information on Hugh Boyce who married Martha or Marion Murray born 1852. I believe he could be one of my Boyces also from County Down.

I believe your Richard Prasher to be a son of Charles Prasher and Agnes Harrison(both born in Ireland).
A nephew of Richard Prasher named William Prasher married Elizabeth McAlonan in Dalry in 1910. I have extensive info on the McAlonan Line.
I have 6 children from Charles Prasher and Agnes Harrison; Charles born circa 1858 in Ireland. Richard born 1862 in Ireland.William born 1866 in Dalry( married Sarah Low circa 1885).Robert born 1868 in Dalry.Margaret Prasher born 1873 in Dalry.John Prasher born 1875 in Dalry.

Hi -
I think these "Murrays" and "Boyces" are my ancestors. My mother was Martha Murray Boyce Reid Baird (born in Barrhead 21.05.27) to Martha Murray Boyce Reid and James Baird. My grandmother came from Dalry and had a brother (and I think an Uncle also) called Hugh. I know that the family (I think the Boyces) hailed from Ireland.
What is your connection with this particular tree?

Hi
Given that Martha Murray (1853) married Hugh Boyce (1848), do you descend from this family here:

My mother was a Murray of Martha Murray's family.
Kind regards
