THE MARYVILLE RECORD Friday, April 21, 1905 An Old Landmark---One of the most interesting old landmarks of Carroll County, and one who possesses more children,grandchildren and great grandchildren than the average man is blessed with is Joshua Boyd, who lives in the Eighteenth District. Mr. Boyd is 80 years of age, and has lived in the county since he was quite small. He is the father of thirteen children, a number that has not proven unlucky to Mr. Boyd. Three of the children are now dead. He has had sixty-nine grandchildren, forty-nine of whom are living and thirty-seven great grandchildren, thirty-one of whom are living, making 119 in all, ninety of them living close around the old homestead.
