  BB: I see on the tree that Martha's brother, Thomas, went to South Africa and then returned to Ireland for 3 years.  I actually found Thomas and his two daughters arriving at Southhampton in 1905 from Durbin SA.  He was 41 and the children 6 and 3. He was some sort of a guard. There was no wife.
  
  BB: Here is a bit more from Ancestry on Thomas Andrew Boyd.
