    Information from a descendant of James Skiffington, that one of Elizabeth's sisters had a child born out of wedlock to Robert Henry Boyle. The girl's name was Drusilla and the sister apparently handed the baby yle on the dock and told her that the child would be better off with her. The child was raised by the Boyles in Australia.

    Notes:

    ?i?from Family Search: Mungo Boyle (LH26-FXG)
    ?/i?
    An article written by a Mr C.M. Forbes and published in the Perth Courier 15 Dec 1905 through 9 February 1906 (transcribed by C. Dobie) records that a Robert Boyle was one of the founding members of the management committee of the Lanark Agricultural Society when it was formed in 1850.

    The whole family (with the exemption of William) appear to have taken ship from London for Brisbane AU on the 'Golden City' on 23 Oct 1865, arriving in Australia on 5 Feb 1866. The shipping records relating o the 'Golden City' seems to indicae that the brothers John (Margaret), Robert (Elizabeth) and David (Nancy Agnes Jameson) brought wives with them from Canada. It appears that the daughters Kate (Katharine/Catharine) and May (Mary) married in Australia.

    They took up agricultural land near Ipswich, Queensland, AU, where they built a small cottage called 'Kelvin Grove' (harking back no doubt to the Kelvin River of Robert Hendry Boyles's Scottish origins). Most of the cottage still stands, although nearly derelict since a fire in about 2000.

    ?i?From a Harrisville Local History
    ?/i?Robert Hendry Boyle born in 1793 (1795?) at Campsie Scotland and his wife Janet Miller, born in 1808 (1802?) and their eight adult children and their families came to Queensland from Scotland via Canada arriving in the 1860s. Robert and Janet 'took up' 120 acres of land, part of the 11,000 acres that made up the Ipswich Reserve, calling their property 'Kelvin Grove' after their home in Scotland. Other members of the family 'took up' parcels of land near by. In 1872, Robert gave an acre of his land for the Hillgrove School. The family grew cotton until the 1880s and for a while tried flax. Robert and Janet are both buried at the Harrisville cemetery.

    (Research):Jean Rainey 25 Grey St. Glenbrook, NSW AU 2773 sent a book 'Looking Back along the Fassifern Valley' by Harry Pugsley, 1975 which has a chapter about Robert Boyle and Janet Miller and their family to JRE Miller about 1990.

    Tracey Crow Midland Highway Byrneside 3617 provided some basic information on the first generation of the Boyle family and John Miller about 1990.

    No contact was made with living descendants of either.

    Notes for further research: ?b?Queensland?/b? Cook arrived in 1770, Flinders in 1802 convicts to Moreton Bay 1822 from Sydney. At that time the area was part of New South Wales 1864 there was drought 1884-86 there was almost no rain

    ?i?The following email from Peter Prove contain erroneous information and has circulated for years.?/i? Boyle Family of Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

    Robert Hendry Boyle was baptised on 3 September 1795, according to the old parochial register of births and baptisms of the Parish of Campsie, County of Stirling, Scotland. His parents were recorded as "William Boyle, Fevar Eastertown of Balgreihend, and his spouse Catherine Hendry". Based upon Robert Hendry Boyle's recorded age of 88 as at the date of his death in Australia on 13 July 1881, his birth year would have been 1792 or 1793. Robert Hendry Boyle and married Janet Miller, daughter of William Miller and Janet (or Mary) Burns, in Canada (source: Janet Miller's death certificate) on 4 March 1825 (source: entry in Robert Hendry Boyle's family bible). The children of the marriage are recorded (in the family bible) as being: Katharene, born 25 Sept 1826 Mary, born 20 Dec 1828 William, born 11 Feb 1831 John Hendry, born 7 (month illegible) 1834 Robert Hendry, born 21 Dec 1835 David Miller, born 31 Dec 1837 James, born 16 April 1840 Mungo Alexander, born 14 Oct 1842 Mungo Alexander Boyle's marriage certificate (he was married in Australia on 18 November 1869) specifically gives his birthplace as (town or place): Lanark (county or shire): Lanark (country): Canada West, and in the absence of any contrary evidence I am assuming that all the other children were also born in Lanark Twp. I was advised that in the 1991 publication by Carol Bennett, "The Lanark Society Settlers", contains numerous relevant references, including the fact that "Janet (Jessie) Miller, who was 12 years old when she came to Canada, married Robert Boyle of lot 6, con 2, Lanark Twp.", and that the 1851 census showed their family as follows: Catherine, 28 Mary, 26 William, 24 John, 18 Robert, 15

    (David and James are missing for some reason) Mungo, 10 John Mason Miller, 3 (possibly a fostered child, from Janet Miller's side of the family) An article written by a Mr. C. M. Forbes and published in the Perth Courier 15 Dec 1905 through 9 February 1906 (and transcribed for the LCGS website by Charles Dobie) records that a Robert Boyle (presumably the elder) was one of the founding members of the management committee of the Lanark Agricultural Society when it was formed in 1850. The whole family (with the exception of William) appear to have taken ship from London for Brisbane, Australia, on the 'Golden City' on 23 Oct 1865, arriving in Australia on 5 Feb 1866. They took up agricultural land near Ipswich, Queensland, Australia, where they built a small cottage called 'Kelvin Grove' (harking back no doubt to the Kelvin River of Robert Hendry Boyle's Glasgow origins). Most of the cottage still stands, although nearly derelict - since a fire in the last year or so. Mungo Alexander Boyle was remembered in an article published in a local Australian newspaper in 1931 as having an injured foot "through having chopped it while falling scrub in Canada". The same article indicates that the sisters Kate (Katharene/Catherine) and May (Mary) married in Australia. The shipping records relating to the 'Golden City' seem to indicate that the brothers John, Robert and David brought wives with them from Canada (Margaret (maiden name unknown), Elizabeth (maiden name unknown) and Nancy Agnes Jameson respectively). The brother William's movements are more mysterious. Family recollections variously suggest that he had been sent out to Australia in advance of the rest of the family to acquire suitable land but absconded with the family funds, or that he remained in Canada or perhaps moved to the United States. Any further information about this family in Canada would be greatly appreciated. Willing to exchange information. Thank You. Peter N. Prove - Geneva, Switzerland. - E-Mail - peterprove@hotmail.com

    JR Ernest Miller Notes
    ?/b?Janet (Jessie) Miller and Robert Boyle
    Janet Miller would have been 19 years of age when her parents, William Miller and Elizabeth Gilmour, left Dumbarton and sailed from Greenock for their new home in Lanark County.

    Robert and Janet lived on Lanark Con 2 L 6. The 1851 census has the following information.
    Boyle, Robert; born in Scotland, age 57.
    Jannett; his wife, age 48
    Catherine; age 28
    Mary; age 26
    William; age 24
    John; age 18
    Robert; age 17
    David; age 15
    Mungo; age 10
    John Mason Miller; age 3

    Baptismal records of St. Andrew's, Lanark record the following:
    William; born 11 feb 1831, son of Robert Boyle and Janet Miller
    John Henry; born 7 feb 1834, son of Robert Boyle and Janet Miller

    The 1861 census lists their religion as Congregational so perhaps more information is to be found in that church's records if available. Ages given in 1861 are Robert; age 66, Janet, age 59.
