Lindenwood University, St. Charles Mo, is the owner & caretaker of the Boone Homestead & Village west of St. Louis near Defiance. Well worth a visit; the tour and Village are wonderful. Daniel & Rebecca lived here from 1804-1820 in his son, Nathan's, home. There is a plaque at his burial site. Daniel's death bed is in the house. The web site has quite a bit of info & photos about the Boone family and a good links page. (Some of the links deal with Daniel's legend and myth.) _http://www.lindenwood.edu/academics/divisions/DanielBooneMain.html_ (http://www.lindenwood.edu/academics/divisions/DanielBooneMain.html) Hope this helps with some of the discussion of the Boone family. (I don't believe I connect to the Boone family though Mordecai Mendenhall is my 5th great grandfather.) Marla Brown Lindenwood '69
