GEORGE J.3 BOYD (SAMUEL2, JOSEPH1) was born December 25, 1836, and died
October 30, 1921. He Notes for GEORGE J. BOYD: History of Guthrie County, Iowa 1907 George J. Boyd The subject of this sketch is a native of Washington county, Maryland, where he was born December 25, 1836. His father was Samuel Boyd, a native of the north of Ireland, who came to this country when very young with his father, Joseph Boyd, and became the owner of a large plantation in Maryland, where he had many slaves at the time of the Rebellion. The mother of our subject bore the maiden name of Margaret Bender, and was of German descent. In the place of his nativity George J. Boyd attended the public schools, and later continued his education in similar schools at Mercersburg, Pennsylvania. He was reared to manhood upon his father's farm and in early boyhood worked in the fields. After leaving school he began farming in Maryland on his own account, a vocation which he followed for several years. At one time he was on the road selling agricultural implements. In 1872 Mr. Boyd came to Iowa, and first located in Benton county, but in 1880 came to Guthrie county, settling in Richland township, where he again engaged in farming. Here he bought one hundred and twenty acres of M. W. Lair, which he operated for three years. In 1883 Mr. Boyd became convinced that there was no better criterion of the growing and prosperous condition of a town or city than its hotel interests, and that the enterprising villages and cities must have pleasant accommodations for visitors and traveling men. It was on this account that he bought the hotel in Herndon and made it a comfortable home for all those who were its guests. In 1895 he sold out and bought a house in block 1 in Herndon, where he lived until 1896, but the hotel business was still attractive to Mr. Boyd, and during this year he purchased a hotel in Linden, Dallas county, which he conducted on the same high principles which characterized his first enterprise of this kind. Here he remained until 1898, when he went to Stuart for a short time, but Herndon still held out attractions for him, and here he returned and bought back his old home, where he has since lived. Besides these various enterprises in which he has been engaged, he has found time to do some very successful work in the real-estate and insurance business. Mr. Boyd was married in Washington county, Maryland, November 18,1858, to Hester J. Mathews, a native of Berkely county, Virginia. Four children of this union still survive, namely; Samuel, who is living in Tacoma, Washington; Fanny, who married Albert Kinney, of Richland township; Lyda, the wife of E. B. Crosswait; and Lulu, who is at home. Mr. Boyd
votes with the republican party, and his labors have been very effective
in advancing its work. His life has been a busy, useful and
honorable one. He has been justice of the peace since 1883, and
for four years was the efficient coroner of this county. Those who
know him have ever held him in the highest regard, and in Guthrie
county's history he well deserves representation. More About
GEORGE JOSEPH BOYD: Notes for HESTER J. MATHEW Funeral Notice Mrs G.J. Boyd The earthly pilgrimage of Mrs. G. J. Boyd came to a close last Saturday morning shortly after eight o'clock. She had been slowly drifting toward the other shore for several weeks. She had neither ache nor pain, but just grew weaker with each passing day, until finally the frail body, weary of the burdens and the cares of the years, ceased to function, and the Spirit, freed of its tenement of clay, took its flight to the Realms Above. The deceased came to Guthrie county many years ago and enjoyed the acquaintance of most of the settlers of the early days, but with advancing age, with its many infirmities, she had been content to just keep the home fires burning while going down the valley with the husband, the companion of the years, and to enjoy to the full the occasional visits of the children and the grandchildren, friends from a distance, and the daily visits of the near neighbors. She was a good wife, mother and neighbor, and many friends will attest to her many estimable qualities. Hester J. Mathewson was born March 1, 1837, in Barkley county, Maryland, and passed away Saturday, August 27, 1921, at her home in Jamaica, Iowa, aged 84 years, 5 months and 26 days. At the age of seven years she with her parents moved to Clear Springs, Maryland, where she grew to womanhood. She was united in marriage with G. J. Boyd of that place on Nov. 18, 1858. To this union were born eight children as follows: J. S. Boyd of Tacoma, Washington; Fanny Culiver, Des Moines, Iowa; Lida Crosswait, Lake City, Iowa; Lula Boyd, Clarinda, Iowa; and Edwin, Katy, Maggie and Allis M. who preceded the mother to the Great Beyond. The family home was maintained at Clear Springs until 1872, when the deceased with her husband and family started out for the west. They first settled in Benton county, Iowa where they resided for eight years. In 1880 the family came to Guthrie county settling near Herndon, and at which place they continued to reside until 1918, when the home here in Jamaica was purchased and the change of residence was made. The deceased united with the M. E. church in early life and lived a consistent Christian life until called to her heavenly home, there to receive the blessings accorded to the faithful followers of the cross. Besides the aged and feeble husband and the four children, there are left to mourn ten grandchildren, ten great grandchildren, and the many friends and acquaintances. Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at 1:30, at the United Brethren church and were conducted by Rev. S. B. Clark, U. B. minister. The song service was given by Mesdames Kathryn Kempf and V. W. Towne and Misses Lena Shuman, Gladys Ballard and Mildred Kempf. The pall bearers were G. W. Heater, Harlow Towne, Wm. Shuman, Charles Towne and V. S. Hiddleson. Internment was made at Richland cemetery. Card of Thanks We wish to
