Welcome to Boyes, Montana

Boyes was named for Arthur Boyce, who homesteaded the southern part of the county. The post office was established in 1906 with John E. Johnston in charge, and the name was spelled Boyes. Boyce was an early day mail carrier who gave up on homesteading, returned to his native England, married and stayed there. (from Cheney's Names on the Face of Montana, Mountain Press Publishing Company) Boyes is located in southeastern Montana near the Montana-Wyoming border.
