    Notes:

    The D.H. Boyd family migrated from Londonderry, New Hampshire, in the 1870’s, homesteading on a farm north of Ocheyedan. They had a family of eight, of whom Frank J. Boyd was the youngest. Frank farmed the family farm until 1918, when he sold it and bought the mortician and furniture business of William Marshall, and the family moved to town. He worked with the Waltons of Sibley and his son, Robert A. Boyd. An employee of the Waltons at that time, George Wick, recalled that the Waltons had Mr. Boyd furnish the automobile hearse for their funerals, and "Uncle Hugh" Walton did Mr. Boyd’s embalming in the back room of the old store on the east side of the street. As a 19-year-old greenhorn, George Wick sat through many a two- or three-hour session with Mr. Boyd and “Uncle Hugh”, "helping" with the process but mostly listening to Mr. Boyd recounting the early days-the 1800’s. Frank Boyd operated the business for 24 years, and in 1942, it was dissolved.
     Frank married Mary Van Cleve, and they had one son and three daughters. He was intensely interested in the Masonic Lodge and fishing. He died in July of 1943.
