If it helps anyone, according to Joseph Boone Scholl's daughter Adaline who was interviewed, she said that her parents (mother Sarah E Floyd) were married in either MO or IA and then moved to OR in 1853. Possibly this is when other Boone families moved there as well or left in subsequent years after receiving word about the land and jobs out there.

Here is my Boone line: George Boone III and Mary Maugridge Squire Boone and Sarah Morgan Edward Boone and Martha Bryan *Mary Boone and Peter Scholl *Charity Boone and Francis Elledge (Mary and Charity were sisters) William Scholl and Martha Jane "Patsy" Elledge Joseph Boone Scholl and Sarah G. Floyd Sarah Ellen Scholl and William W. McMurren (my great grandparents) I would like to correct Sarah Floyd's middle initial which is actually "G" rather than "E". I have Joseph Boone Scholl and Sarah G. Floyd's family Bible (published 1855) in which her middle initial is written in her own handwriting as "G". Joseph Boone Scholl and Sarah G. Floyd were married in Adair County, Missouri, on 15 March 1846 according to the Bible in my possession and "Adair County, Missouri Marriage Records, 1841-1870" compiled by Elizabeth Prather Ellsberry, Chillicothe, MO (1961). Adaline Scholl Larkin (my great grandmother's sister) was no doubt correct when she stated in her interview that her parents, Joseph Boone Scholl and Sarah G. Floyd, moved to Oregon in 1853. I have a copy of the deed they signed 31 January 1853 selling their real estate in Missouri, and a Polk County, Oregon, territorial census record showing the family living there in 1856. ~ Sally Smith > -----Original Message----- > From: Debbi Geer [mailto:dgirth@yahoo.com] > Sent: Saturday, January 08, 2005 3:15 PM > To: BOONE-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: [BOONE-L] Oregon Boones 1870 > > > > If it helps anyone, according to Joseph Boone Scholl's > daughter Adaline who was interviewed, she said that > her parents (mother Sarah E Floyd) were married in > either MO or IA and then moved to OR in 1853. > Possibly this is when other Boone families moved there > as well or left in subsequent years after receiving > word about the land and jobs out there. > > > Debbi > > > > > __________________________________ > Do you Yahoo!? > Meet the all-new My Yahoo! - Try it today! > http://my.yahoo.com > > > > ============================== > Search Family and Local Histories for stories about your family and the > areas they lived.
