  1. This is a wonderful find. My father was Ernest Devoid Boatwright and after he passed I lost contact with my family on the Boatwright side. I knew some of my Aunts and Uncles (I met them as a small child) but my father passed away when I was only 13 years old and some of his siblings had already passed before then so a few of them I had never even knew or met. Thank you for finding this info and it was so nice to read about my family history.

  2. Quick note about my father Ernest Devoid Boatwright and where he is buried. He is actually buried in Danville, Virginia where he lived before he passed away. I just went back to read the notes again and realized that it said he was buried in South Carolina. If you need a link to a picture of his headstone, let me know and I'll get that to you.
