The
Rebecca Boyce Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution was organized
on January 31, 1948. It was organized by Mrs. John Sidney Farrar with the help
of her daughter, Mrs. Sidna Farrar Wellborn, who was a member of the Jane
Douglas Chapter of Dallas.
The chapter was named for Mrs. Farrar's
grandmother, Rebecca Horton Boyce, 1799-1891, whose family settled east of
Waxahachie in 1872. The town of Boyce also received its name from this family.
Rebecca Boyce is buried in the Waxahachie City Cemetery.
