Can YOU connect the Boydoh dots?
Grave hunter Adam Michna’s photo of the cemetery marker for Joseph and Anna Boydoh still leaves underanswered questions, mainly which current Boydohs are descendants of the couple.
Joseph, born in 1811, died in 1891. His wife, Anna, born in 1828, died in 1907 at the age of 79, a long time in those days.
Lillie Boydoh Fast was Class of 1928. Louise McNece Boydoh is Class of 1933.
Among the Boydohs that I’m aware of is Robert Boydoh, Class of
1956, who lives in Hebron, Ohio. His birthday is Oct. 29.
Jim McDaniel, Class of
1960, remembers Bob and Cheryl Boydoh during his Monongah High Days. Cheryl
Boydoh Fordyce is Class of 1963.
Jim Fullen remembers Paul
Boydoh living on Main Street in Monongah “in a white 2-story building across
the street from Bob Brummage. I think the front of the building was 4
apartments and the rear was an attached home that Cheryl and her parents lived
in.”
Nancy Kantura wrote that “I
went to school with Glenna Boydoh and, if I remember correctly, I think she had
a brother, Robert.”
Joy Damico chimed in: “Paul
Boydoh was my uncle.”
Paul Reger Boydoh,
Class of 1956, passed away in 2011 in Madison Heights, Virginia. His widow is Margaret
F. Boydoh. His parents were Paul Lane Boydoh and Louise McNece Boydoh. Mr.
Boydoh was a U.S. Navy veteran and retired from GE/Erricson. He was a member of
the Elon Ruritan Club and Elon Baptist Church. He also volunteered his time at
Lynchburg General Hospital.
In addition to his wife, he is survived by three children, Miracle B. Williams and her husband Larry, Mitchell L. Boydoh and his wife Pamela, and Melody B. Grubbs and her husband Greg, all of Madison Heights; six grandchildren, Sarah W. Skeens and her husband Josh, Elizabeth W. Mawyer and her husband Mark, Andrew M. Boydoh, Paul W. Boydoh, G. Taylor Grubbs and Chris P. Grubbs; three great-grandchildren, Alana K. Williams, Levi Skeens and Michael Mawyer; and one sister, Cheryl B. Fordyce and her husband Richard of Grand Rapids, Mich.
