Title: Ballincottie- 1821 Boyle
Post by: MaryBelle MacDonald on Tuesday 25 April 17 03:27 BST (UK)

Has anyone seen any reference to Ballincottie? Our relative, George Boyle, listed it several times as his birthplace in 1821 (Omagh/Armagh/Tyrone?) We can't find where it might have been. He was married in Bermuda in 1844 and lived there for the rest of his long life. So wish he had at least a middle name or listed a near town near where he was born.
Any suggestions where to search for Ballincottie, or young George?
He was a cordwainer, turned general store owner.
Many thanks!
Mary Belle
