Surname Saturday - Boa

It's Saturday once again, so that means it's Surname Saturday, a daily blogging prompt from Genabloggers.  Since I'm going alphabetically through the names in my family tree, I'm at "B".  The Boa line runs on my mom's side of the tree through her mother.  This line also runs back to Prince Edward Island in Canada to Scotland.

I haven't done a lot of work on this line, and the information I have is from research done by other family members.  When my mom gave me the folder with all the research papers in it, there wasn't any documentation.  I have some of it documents, mainly in the US and Canada.  Slowly but surely I'll have the rest of the line documented.  I'm looking forward to finding out how early in Scotland the Boa line originated and if they came from anywhere else.

I've always felt an affinity to Scotland, and now I know why.
