General Notes: Husband - John Boyd

---

"In the tenth of Queen Anne," he and a younger brother, Rev. Adam Boyd, left Scotland and landed at Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He married there and subsequently became (1728) one of the first immigrants to the "Irish Settlement," now Northampton County.

In 1728, Thomas, James and William Craig, with their sister Jane and her husband, John Boyd, went from Philadelphia to a place on Catasauqua Creek within the bounds of the present Northampton County, Pennsylvania, and founded the "Craig Settlement", later known as the "Irish Settlement."
