He has now (2006) completed the genealogies of the early families of another town in York County, Alfred, Maine. He is still an active professional genealogist with an active clientele. Since 1985 he has also been a trustee of the Springvale Public Library and has served as an advisor for its extensive genealogy collection.

Books by Frederick R. Boyle
Early Families of Sanford-Springvale, Maine (1989)
Later Families of Sanford-Springvale, Maine (1995)
Early Families of Shapleigh and Acton, Maine (2002)
Early Families of Alfred, Maine (2006)
UPDATE
Since October 2008 Fred Boyle has been working on another book in his “Early Families” series. His work in progress is Early Families of Waterborough, Maine. For this he has been working with two key members of the Waterboro Historical Society, Jim Carll and Linda Hanscom. They have helped supply him with needed family genealogy and to connect with a number of others with Waterborough ancestry to make this new contribution to York County genealogy an outstanding collection of genealogical data and history. Probably the most important family in the book will be the Smiths. Already Boyle has uncovered the fact that Capt. John Smith, the Revolutionary leader of the local militia, was, in fact, not a native of Kittery, but rather of Brentwood, NH, a town from which many of the early Waterborough settlers originated. Those with early Waterborugh ancestry themselves are urged to contact Boyle soon before publication probably in 2011.
