Hello Candi:

What trail leads you to the idea of being a descendant of Belle Boyd, Confederate Spy?

Here's some info from Wikipedia.org:
In 1864, she went to England where she met and married a Union naval officer, Samuel Wylde Hardinge. Boyd became an actress in England. Following the death of her husband in 1866, she returned to the United States on November 11, 1869. She married John Swainston Hammond in New Orleans. After a divorce in 1884, Boyd married Nathaniel Rue High in 1885. A year later, she began touring the country giving dramatic lectures of her life as a Civil War spy.

You will find several of her cousins subscribed to the Boyd@Rootsweb.com list and there are many posts about Belle in the archives for the list.

Yours Aye,

Lauren
