Help[Opinions] Re: Boyd
in reply to a message by carmags
Yes, he was Boyd Tarleton, the brother of the twins Stuart and Brent Tarleton. He's mentioned by Scarlett and the twins in the first chapter of the novel. Now that I think of it, I believe he is a character only referred to, and not seen or heard directly. Poor Boyd was killed in the war, of course. All four of the red-headed Tarleton boys were.
But yeah, that's why Boyd, along with Cade, Raiford, Dallas, has that Southern antebellum charm for me.

Wow - you have a god memory, I couldn't remember a Boyd in GWTW at all. What was the 4th brother called?
I have the same antebellum associations with Wade because of Scarlett's son.
