Trapham
The Boys family was a relatively large Kentish family in the early seventeenth century, having an estimated ten branches. John Boys, the M.P. for Betteshanger, a parish close to Wingham, knew Sir James Oxenden and appears in surviving Oxenden correspondence from the 1640s (Underwood (1966:XXX). John Boys owned property in Betteshanger and Trapham (in the parish of Wingham).
John Boys senior of Trapham, Sir James Oxinden of Deane, Sir Richard Hardres of Upper Hardres, and Sir Edward Monins of Waldershare are identified by Alan Everitt as the core of the Kent County Committee, under the leadership of Sir Edward Hales. (Everitt (1957:23)
