This family (Sam Boyet) entered the United States at New York in 1905 from Iasi, Romania. The Boyet name may have been recorded due to a language barrier. The 1930 census for Samuel and Rebecca list language as Yiddish.

Morris Boyet, Sam's father is listed in the 1920 census and Morris's brother's name who entered the US at a different time was recorded as Ben Bert.
