Boyd, according to history records, was the first white man to set foot on the soil of what is now Van Buren, Arkansas. Pa owned a great deal of timber land, in the Briar Creek area where he owned and operated a sawmill, His had been a most colorful life. Before he married Emma, the 14 year old dark haired beauty, born in Washington County, Arkansas, July 12, 1883, he had families with four other women, Well, his first wife Jane Timpson, was stricken ill and died very shortly after they were married.

In the early 1900's the Coles moved to Long, where they lived the remainder of their lives. They are buried in the Long Community Cemetery. Joseph & Emma (Cole) Boyd moved to what is now Long in 1900.

When her husband died, leaving Ma, as a 29 year old widow, with a large family to raise her only income was a small Civil War widow's pension for which it took volumes of affidavits and records to be able to verify her eligibility. She and the children continued to farm to supplement their income. Ma Boyd lived in the original house until it burned in August 1954 another house was moved in just north of the original site. She lived there with her son Bill until her final illness. Ma Boyd passed away April 13, 1966.
