Hi there, I've got a bit of notes about Daniel -- he was related to the Eastern Cherokee, and his family moved out to KY/TN around the time of the bid for the state of Franklin, and settled in Ky afterward. There's no indication he's Jewish, but was probably part Indian. That was fairly common back then. I can find more detail on him if you like, blessed be, willow (Quaker roots -- DeCou, Ashton, Bloome and others plus Metis and families including Labissoniere/Marchand/Benoit/LaLiberte/ etc Canada/QC, Tadlock/Bourland KY/CA, Collett MO, McDiarmid/Henderson -- Isle of Skye Scotland/Ontario, Palatines - Dachstader, Loyalist - Stevens, DAR (eligible non-member) -- Hibbett VA and many more)

Willow, Daniel Boone was an American pioneer, who played a major part in the exploration and settlement of Kentucky. In 1753 his family settled on the Yadkin River in what is now North Carolina. Daniel BOONE along with his son Israel BOONE, Colonel CALLAWAY, Mike STONE, Captain TWITTY and his servant, Sam, Felix WALKER and other road makers built "The Wilderness Road" from North Carolina to Kentucky and the town at the end of trail was named "Boonesborough,KY" after Daniel Boone. While Boonesborough was not the first town in KY we find that in June 1774, Boone assisted in laying of the first inhabited town at Harrodstown, now Harrodsburg, on the fork of Salt River, now in Mercer County,KY. Daniel Boone was lean, but not very tall and he never wore a coonskin cap nor was he the first white man to go into KY. He was the first to explore it thoroughly. When Daniel Boone was almost twenty-one, he was five feet eight inches tall, with broad shoulders, thick chest, and narrow hips. He was a good wrestler, runner and jumper. His hair was dark, and his eyes were blue beneath yellowish eyebrows. He had a slightly hooked nose, thin lips, a wide mouth, and ruddy skin. He always wore a felt hat. Possibly he felt more convertible with a brim over his eyes. Daniel Boone never made any profession of religion or united with any church.
