It has been determined that the scribe has written the name as Thomas Boyle, not Boyte based on closer analysis of the handwriting. See YDNA matches and medieval records found in Ireland for this line which has current spelling as Boyt, Boyte, Boyett/e. http://pbase.com/daveb/g2

Based on what I see, I am pretty sure it is BOYLE vs. BOYTE. Most of the T’s in the document are crossed and not looped. Appears most places where the T’s do not appear crossed is when they are connected to an “h” as in the word “the”, but even then, on some of them you can clearly see the small cross on the “t”.
