Is it possible that Joseph Boone (1730-1776) and Elizabeth Warren had TWO sons named Joseph? The first son named Joseph would have been born 30 Mar 1751 and would have died sometime before the second son named Joseph was born on 30 Mar 1767. It's just a thought. Anyone have any info which would confirm or deny this assertion? Take care, Daniel Paxton

I am now confused. Can someone explain this. I only have one Joseph Boone. Thank you.

I have found several families where a child was born, named after a particular person in the family, usually a grandparents, and then died. When the next child of the same sex was born the same name was used. My gr-grandfather was named for his paternal grandfather. However he had an older brother with the same name who died a couple of weeks after his 2nd birthday. Then consider the boxer George Foreman. He gave all his sons the name George as their first name (at least 5 of them). I know he has at least one daughter Georgia. Who knows, the other daughters (4 of them) may have the name Georgia too.

Also, George Boone III and wife Mary (Maugridge) had two daughers named Mary -- the first one died at about age 2.
