Has anyone got a connection to the following family ?

Flora BOYD, born about 1845, Kilfinichen, Mull

She was the daughter of Donald BOYD, Farmer, and Catherine McKINNON. Flora
had a brother, Duncan.

Flora married Donald MCPHAIL in 1873. They had at least two children, Mary
born about 1877, and Alexander Donald, born about 1880. The family lived in
Salen where Donald was a Gamekeeper. They were still there at the time of
the 1891 Census.

I have been researching my MacPhail (McPhail) family but have not found any
BOYD researchers. This name does not seem to be common on Mull. Anyone have
any connections?

Thank you.
