Pat, You are correct as no one knows the identity of Israel Boone's wife. It is thought both Israel Boone and his wife died by 1756, and their children were raised by Daniel Boone. I see you have Gagg instead of Craig for the husband of Celia Boone. I think this Celia would be the right person for your Hezekiah Curtis as she could have married twice. Take care.

Just stubborn I guess you could say and thought he was right and stuck up for his son.But I don't know who his son did marry? Do you? Squire Boone and Sarah Morgan did have a son by the name of: Israel BOONE b 9-May-1726 Exeter,Bucks Co.,PA d at age 30 20-Jun-1756 m 13-Dec-1747 ? and he did marry out of the Quaker Faith and I show he had a son by the name of Jessie BOONE b 1748 Burke Co.,NC d 1829-30 m Sarah McMAHON who had one daughter Celia BOONE b 1790 Burke Co.,NC m Wm.
