celtic origin.

BOLEY--Boulier--Boliou--Boulle--Boulet--BOULEY--B oulez-- Bouleau --Boullot-- Boulay--
Bouloy--Boulais--Bouille
From a novel "The Forest" by Edward Rutherford page 96: "Bellus Locus, the abbey was
called in Latin---The Beautiful Place; in Norman French: Beau Lieu. But the forest
people did not speak French, so pronounced it Boolee or Bewley."
Came from Kentucky (according to sons notation on 1910 and 1920 Census for Spokane,
Wa.).
Did some kind of mining as he was killed in a mine cave in and died in the arms of his
son Frank (Fielding), at which time Frank left home for the West Coast.
In a letter from Pat Fields:
My husband's grandmother was Susan Caroline Boley, daughter of Charlotte Martha Langley
& Samuel Franklin Boley. Susan Caroline Boley married Alden Asbury Fields: born 2 Dec
l874; died 24 Nov l935. They were married 2 Dec l895, we believe. George Boley, brother
of above, was the youngest of the 5 living children who was about 3 or 4 yrs. old when
Grandpa Boley was killed by the cave-in of a small coal mine he was working on the
family's place. Grandma Boley moved to town and supported the family by taking in
washing and with the $l5/month widow's pension. At the time of her death, it was
$32/month!
According to Family stories Samuel is supposed to have fought in the Civil War for the
North and been a dispatch rider for General Grant.
Subject: Samuel Boley-

From: Mark Andersen
To: FBouley@prodigy.net
Came across an old query (1997) regarding Samuel Boley on the Carroll County MOGenWeb
site.
My gg grandfather John Newton Vance purchased land from Samuel F. Boley in Carroll
County in 1868. At about the same time he purchased land from Elizabeth B. Boley. I
assume there was some relationship between Samuel and Elizabeth, maybe brother and
sister in law? John Vance and his wife are both buried on the property purchased from
Elizabeth. We are trying to pinpoint the location of the property.
From Eric Gordon:
BOLEY, Samuel Franklin- was born on 17 Sep 1834 in Ky. He died on 15 Oct 1888 in Mo. He
married BEASLEY, Mary E.. She was born on 15 Mar 1845 in OH. She died on 3 Jan 1927 in
WA. (Wrong information--She died about 1870) They were married on 14 Oct 1855 in Mo.
BOLEY, Samuel Franklin- also married LANGLEY(CLARK), Charolotte Martha-.
From Jo Boley Wahlgren:
I did obtain copies of military information about him from the national archives. The
reason I have such an interest in Samuel is that he served for the north in the 'war',
my great-grandfather fought for the 'south'...however, he was a member of the Missouri
State Guard, which was later absorbed by the Confederacy. He was captured twice. The
first time, he went to prison and served a short time in Alton, IL. The second time, he
escaped.
Note from Linda Brown at calebsmimi@hotmail.com 7 Apr 2003 "My info is that he was a
barber"

From: "J. BERTELS"
Organization: Bertels Corp.
To:
Dear Frank,
In the information that you sent, it states that Sam Boley was both in the 10th Mo.
Infantry and the 10th Mo Cavalry----followed by service in 2nd Mo Cavalry. From the
dates and other information, I suspect that Sam Boley's regiment may have originally
formed as infantry and then been merged with other companies to form a cavalry
regiment---the 2nd Mo. Cavalry.
My great-grandfather, Joseph Bertels, also served as a private in 10th MO Cavalry, Co.
G. I would appreciate hearing if you might have additional information or letters from
Sam Boley. They both served under Capt. Benteen who later survived Custer's Last Stand.
(read "Harvest of Barren Regrets).

From "Complete Book of Immigrants 1700-1750" by Peter Wilson Coldham-p.162 : 16-19
April Shippers by the William and Elizabeth of London, Mr. William James, bound from
Plymouth for Boston: Peter Gawden, SAMUEL BOULET. (Public Records Office, Chancery
Lane, London: E190/1074/26). Is this my Samuels ancestor perhaps? (Doubtful)
1840 (Reel M704) and 1850 (Reel M432) for Kentucky census has been searched.
Missouri1880 Census-Enum. Dist.175 Line 22 Sheet 30 V.21
Missouri census for 1850 ( reel M432 CARR 395 049 line 12) lists:
SAMUEL BOLEY 16 YRS. OLD-- FARMER-- BORN IN KENTUCKY (That would make his birth date in
Kentucky as 1834) working for and staying with Logan H. Ballow age 33 and wife Ann,29.
If this is Frank Sr. father, he would have been 33 when he had Frank, which is
reasonable since Frank was youngest of three. It also means he would have been in his
late 20's for the Civil war.
IGI (1988) for Missouri (p.1803) lists:
1. Samuel F. Boley married to Mary E. Beasley on 14Oct1855
2. Samuel F. Boley married to Charlotte Martha Clark 5Apr1871
Both marriages in Carroll County.
Since Frank Sr. was born 5/Dec/1867 and his mother died shortly there after, this fits.
Also another possibility. 1910 Spokane census for Frank Sr. says his father was from
Kentucky and his mother was from Virginia. Dad used to say that he thought his
grandmother was a "Bowen of Kentucky" Could he have mis-heard.? (Since Elizabeth
remarried, after Fielding left for the Colorado gold fields, to a Bowen, it would make
sense that Grandfather (Frank/Fielding) would have thought that his grandmother was a
Bowen. He was three when she remarried.
James C. Neagles, U.S. Military Records: A Guide to Federal and State Sources, p.286
1861-65 Although it was a slave state, Missouri remained loyal to the Union during the
Civil War. Guerillas fighting in Missouri and along the Arkansas border attempted
unsuccessfully to separate Missouri from the Union. Missouri contributed 109,111
soldiers to the Union effort during the Civil War, more than any other border state.
Samuel listed as citizen of Hale, Carroll co. Mo. aged 52 in 1886
There is an S.F. Boley buried in Avalon Cemetery in Fairview Township in Livingston Co.
Mo.
From Ron Martin
It's very possible that Samuel F. Boley lived & was buried in Carroll County, MO. His
brother, William Alexander Boley (b:1839 Hale, Carroll Co.) and Wm.'s son William A.
Boley JR. (b:1882 Triplette, Carroll Co.) were both born in Carroll County, MO. Later
my William A. Boley SR.& JR moved to Sumner, Chariton Co where all my Uncles & Aunts &
my dad was born (in 1920s). In 1933 after Wm A. Boley SR. died, Wm. A. JR and his
family moved to Livingston Co. where there are still relatives. Even I and my siblings
were born there in the 1940's
==========================================================================================
Wife's General Notes
==========================================================================================
According to Spokane Census of 1910, grandpa (Fielding Franklin Boley) said his mother
was born in Virginia. But family rumor has always said "Bowen of Kentucky" However this
was probably a mistake and he was probably referring to his grandmother Elizabeth (nee
Macdowell) who had remarried a Bowen.
Frank Bouley Sr. , on his death certificate, it says his mother was a Bowen of West
Virginia, but this information was offered by Frank Jr. who was not sure. She may have
been Beasley. My father (Frank Bouley jr.) used to say that he had heard his father
refer to his mother or grandmother as a "BOWEN OF KENTUCKY" If my grandfathers
grandmother was Elizabeth McDowell who had married Fielding William Boley, son of
Vincent, then that is another "clincher" for me as Fielding latter took off for the
gold fields and Elizabeth married John Bowen in 1870 (three years after the birth of my
grandfather whom I believe to be the latter Fielding.) Naturally gramps would have
thought of his grandmother as a "BOWEN"
SOURCES:
The 1870 Census for Chariton County, Mo. gives Mary E. Boley as age 39 and lists her
birth place as Missouri.
