In this deposition, James explained the health and parentage of his nephew.

  • Notes 
    • * * * Important * * * 1850 Census in Rhode Island (the family is listed under the name "Ball") John's birth place is given as New Jersey as is his next older brother, Patrick. Marriage Record of John and Bridget says Whitehall, PA.

      1860 Census in Rhode Island - Head of Household is Andrew Boyle and also in the home is Andrew's mother, Rosanna and the rest of her children with the exception of Patrick. In this census year, Andres and John both list New Jersey as their place of birth.

      John Boyle served in Company C of the 2nd Rhode Island Volunteer Infantry beginning just days after his marriage in 1861 until mustering out 17 June 1863. John filed for a pension later in life but died before it was approved. His wife, Bridget, took up the plea for her husband's pension and she was awarded his pension in 1892 after relatives and family friends signed affidavits in her favor as well as providing proof of her marriage in the form of a certified death certificate and a certified marriage certificate. These documents are included in the pension file. John's service included such famous battles as the Battle of Bull Run where it is said that the 2nd Rhode Island was among the few units to have made a relatively organized retreat back to the safety of Washington D.C. and Gettysburg where the 2nd Rhode Island were among the reserve units.

      Researchers please note: Documentation that I am looking for is a birth record or christening if one exists. I have identified John's faith at the time of his marriage as Roman Catholic. The pastor who performed the marriage in Providence, RI was Patrick Lambe, R.C. Pastor. According to John's death certificate, he was born in Whitehall, PA.

      RESEARCH: John and Bridget may have lived in New Bedford, MA in 1890. There is a John Boyle and Bridget Boyle that show up in an Ancestry.Com city directory database in that year.
