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.
