There are trees on Ancestry for Alexander Boyle born 1805 Co Down with parents John and Margaret
Alexander's wife is recorded as Lucinda SLOAN , no dob or place
There are 5 children on the record :
Alexander b 1825
William Henry b1838 Newtownards d 1907
Margaret b c 1840 d 1890 Ellemere New Zealand
Sarah b c 1844 Co Down d 1899 Ellemere New Zealand
Mary b c 1845 Co Down d 1887 no pod
A search on NZ BMD's records a death of an Alexander Boyle in 1881 aged 76, which ties in with your record of b 1805
Not finding death record for Lucinda , which could have been in Ireland before this family moved to NZ
Does this info match your records ?
