Note that James Boone's wives were from the 1698 GWYNEDD-NORTH WALES colony,inPhiladelphia Co,on the Bucks Co line. Colony was led over by - Roberts.At some date,the John Simpsons moved with-near the colony. And in 1818,John Simpson Jr and grown children moved adjoining me here at Bethel,Clermont,Oh. John's wife had Roberts blood. His son,Samuel,was married to a Griffith.And John's daus were married to James Griffith,and James Ross. And,here,1821,younger dau, Hannah,m Jesse Root Grant. 1822,she gave birth to Pres-Gen US Grant. 1825 , future Gov Sam Medary stopped to visit the Simpsons,and was talked into staying. He had gone to elementary school,in Gwynedd,Pa with Hannah Simpson, and his parents had married at the Simpson's Bucks Co,Pa Neshamminy Presbyterian. His parents,and Sam, and Mary Medary m John Iden [Foulke mom], lived ,say 1815-25 near Georgetown,DC. [1834 for Idens] 1857,in my Bethel,Ohio Jesse Root Grant was mayor,and tanner. A block west was Asher Medary's widow,and children. Oliver Grant m Asher's dau,and moved her, and the widow,to Galena,Ill. [Plane and Charity Sts.for Grant: Plane and Union for Medary.] So,if Georgetown,DC was named for Daniel Boone's grandfather, we have the MEDARY-IDEN[foulke] colony moving from the Gwynedd,Pa area to DC to join near kinsmen,the Boone's. And George Boone, grandfather of Dan'l-his move to Georgetown,DC must have been 1748 era,like Squire's,and one wonders if he continured in Prince George Co,Md witnessing and executing so many wills,as he had at Exeter,Berks,Pa. ?
