Jim Allen (note David Boykin bought the Boykin House Hotel. Before that he was a Teamster.
* On the 1900 census he states his parents were both born in GA. Roll T623-915. SC as a POB is given by his sister. David & Margaret Boykin had 3 children. Mary Jane who died on her 18th birthday, Sarah, which is my line, and her brother "Peter." That is the name he went by. On the census it is Levin (Scion?). Sarah had 13 Children! The two oldest made a visit to Montana to spend some time with their grandfather. That is where "Maggie" met her future husband. They intended to return to Texas after their marriage but never did. Elmer and his father were homesteading and they were staying at "The Boykin House" while they looked for land. This is where they met and their wedding was held at the hotel. Margaret Ann ZUMWALT Boykin died of influenza. David took the children to her parents. This is where I lose track of David. Do you know where he is in 1870 and 1880? The children are in Belmont, TX in 1870 with Andrew and Harriet A. LARRIMORE Zumwalt. In 1880 S.A. "Peter" Boykin is living in Harwood, TX with Andrew Zumwalt and his 2nd wife, Elizabeth E. HAHN - Theresa Mitchell.
