I am open to any proof of this relationship. All I have found so far shows no proof that this William is the son of John and Sarah. If William and Daniel Wilcoxson were brothers, then that could explain why there could be a descendant bearing the Boone name because Daniel Boone was certainly no stranger to this group of Wilcoxsons. I need more proof than someone 2 or three generations away naming a child Boone. Please share the proof you have. I only want to know who the "real" parents are. I could care less if he is a direct descendant of the Boones. I am only interested in proving my direct line even if they were horse thieves, cattle rustlers, etc. Unlike you, I can be swayed (not by assumptions), but by proof. Have you checked the old records in Rowan and Wilkes County where this family lived in the earlier years? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
