I am looking for information on Edward Boone, b. 1808 Brian/Bryan Station, KY, d. Howard Co., MO. He had a daughter Rebecca Boone who married Joseph Carns. Any information greatly appreciated. Li Ann Lee

Will be gone over the holidays.

Hi - I was wondering if someone on the list could help me confirm a family story that has been passed down to my generation. The story is that my ggg grandfather Robert Saunder Bennett (1812-1862) named his daughter Mary Elizabeth Bennett after a relative also named Mary Elizabeth (Bennett?) who married into Daniel Boone's family. Robert Bennett was born in Pennsylvania (his 1843 marriage certificate lists him as living in the Northern Liberties outside Philadelphia). Two of his sons were named Isaac Schuyler and Horace Sugular. Any help would be very much appreciated - my email address is [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> . Thanks!

I have recently heard a family story surrounding the burial of Daniel Boone. It is my hope that someone might be able to give me information as to where he is buried. Very Sincerely, Carla Rigby

Daniel Boone was first buried near St. Charles Missouri next to his wife Rebecca. Many years later, a body, thought to be Daniel's was removed and taken to KY. KY promised a befitting monument, although Daniel was not to fond of what KY had become. (He fled the state fearing imprisonment for debt) Family legend is that when Rebecca was burried, she was unknowing next to another body of a slave. When they began to dig for Daniel's grave they hit the remains of the unknown person and they buried daniel at the head of Rebecca. Legend continues that when they came to get Daniel, they dug up Rebecca and the unnamed slave and Daniel still rests in Missouri. Sounds like a Missouri v. Kentucky rivalry tale. But that's the story.

Several months ago I offered to copy for interested researchers James W. Hagy's thesis on the frontier settlement of Castle's Woods, Virginia. I had searched for many long years before finding an actual copy of this work at a rare book dealer in North Carolina. This thesis was presented to the Faculty of the Department of History, East Tennessee State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts, 1966. The original thesis contained no copywrite provision and I have distributed over 300 copies to appreciative genealogists. I thought I was done with this project but recently have received a number of additional requests for this material so I have decided to make ONE more printing run and then retire from the copying business. For all of those folks who for one reason or another failed to secure a copy of this work, this is the last chance. "This thesis is a narrative account of the frontier settlement of Castle's Woods. The community is an interesting case study of the ideas of Frederick Jackson Turner regarding the frontier. Castle's Woods in many ways fits the pattern of the typical frontier community. Apparently first settled by a long hunter, Castle's Woods, like a magnet, drew westward the classic frontier types, hunters, farmers, speculators, surveyors, artisans, and preachers. Even some aristocrates settled there. The usual frontier customs and activities were observed in the community. These included a considerable amount of lawlessness. The greatest problem for the settlers in Castle's Woods was the Indians who were a menace from the time of the first settlement until nearly the end of the eighteenth century. After the Indian problem had been eliminated, the frontier stage quickly passed away...... A large amount of primary materials were used in this study. The most important sources were county records, state archives, national archives, and the Draper Manuscripts." The importance of Castle's Woods is twofold. First, it had its day of importa nce as a stepping stone to the West. Secondly, it is important as a case study of the American frontier. It was the first permanent settlement in Russell County, Virginia, founded in 1760 and located on the Clinch River. Many of the early southwest Virginia families are discussed in detail including Russell, Walker, Cowan, Porter, Moore, Campbell, Stuart, Houston, Montgomery, Snoddy, Thompson, Robinson and many, many more. Detailed accounts of many of the Indian battles are described in great detail and this research material makes interesting reading. If anyone would like a copy of this 140 page thesis the price is $25.00 which includes shipping via priority mail. PLEASE contact me privately at [email protected] if you have any questions. Regards, Robert Cowan 525 Harrogate Rd. Matthews, North Carolina 28105

The first results in the initial group of Boone DNA tests are in and they've been posted to the website. If anyone would like to take a look, they're located at: http://members.tripod.com/dellariola On the left sidebar, choose DNA Results Page. We've received some very interesting results. Maybe some of the participants are on this list and would like to comment?? All comments are welcome and Rochelle and I will try to answer any questions you may have. This is an on-going project and we need more participants in order to separate and/or connect the many Boon/e (and spelling variations) lines. If we can answer any questions, please let us know. Thanks......Dell (Boone) Ariola
