Boyle Family History

Boyle Genealogy & Family Tree

Boyle is an Irish name from Donegal, Ireland, where the family descended from a line of kings. It comes from the Gaelic O Baoighill which means "having profitable pledges." Alternately, it may come from the French Boille which referred to someone small and round in stature. The earliest known ancestor--Richard Boyle--was recorded in 1566. Roots for this name can also be found from Scotland. The family motto is E labore dulcedo which means "Pleasure arises out of labor."

Other spellings include "O'Boyle," "Boile," "Baole," "Boghill," "Baoghal," and "Boyall." Notable people with the surname include British director Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionaire, Trainspotting, 127 Hours), American actress Lara Flynn Boyle (The Practice, Men in Black II, Wayne's World), and American actor Peter Boyle (Everybody Loves Raymond, While You Were Sleeping, Young Frankenstein). The first Boyle to come to America was Naamy Boyle in Virginia in 1622.
