Cousins, Does anyone have any information on a Thomas Oliver Boggs, son of Lilburn Boggs & Panthea Boone, granddaughter to Daniel Boone. Do we know anything about the statement below. Thanks Paul S Boggs Miami, Fl research Boggsville, CO. It was founded by Thomas Oliver Boggs who once worked for William Bent the builder of Bent's Old Fort on the Sante Fe Trail on the Arkansas River in southeastern Colorado. Boggs is considered Colorado's first rancher---sheep and cattle. Kit Carson died in his home and he and his wife adopted Kit's children.
