You asked specifically if I knew the religion of this family. I looked up some information I had and you may appreciate this, "Hance Boggs, senior, elder and pillar of the Covenanter Church in Rathfriland Co. Down, Ireland. His son, Hance, was ordained minister of the Rathfriland Reformed Presbyterian church in 1802. The elder Hance Boggs is said to have lived in "full and comfortable circumstances and would have been called a 'Laird' in Scotland. He was a man of large frame and patriarchal manner and still preserved the broadsword of his Cameronian ancestors." This information came to me in April of 2000 from Louise Rasmusson, also a Boggs researcher and Boggs relative, both of us descendants of the above Hance Boggs
