I did not know either of them. My grandfather moved to Brewster Nebraska in the late 1800's and died in 1934. I was only 2 years old at the time. He came from Kankaee Illinios. He was a railroad telegrapher and became a business man and lawyer. I don't know to much more. I have some of his old school books and other papers. Also of interest is the Boone name as my grand mother was in the family tree of Hannah Boone and John Stewart. She was the sister of Daniel Boone. This is shown on the Ancestry family tree of my son, Michael D. Riggs. I am not a member of that orginization so cannot access it. I would be interesting to discuss this further with you
