    3. I live here in Oregon and the George L.Boone that had the DLC on the Yaquina was George Luther Boone ggrandson of Daniel Boone, He also was the brother of my ggrandmother, Chloe Boone Curry. Their father was Alphonso Boone who brought his family out on the Oregon Trail in 1846 except for George Luther who was off fighting the Mexican War and followed them out to Oregon in 1848. He and his wife, Mourning Ann Young, are buried in Pioneer Cemetery in Jacksonville, Or. Alphonso Boone married his second cousin, Nancy Linville Boone, whose grandfather was George Boone, Daniel Boone's brother. Nancy's brother was John Daniel Boon(e) came out in 1845. Her sister was Delia Boone May. Delia did live in Benton County, Or. and is buried there. There were three separate Boone families living out here in early Oregon. One has to be very careful of WPA records as they are recollections of elderly people that might not be accurate. Any other questions I'd be glad to snswer. Arlene Curry Buschert
