Dear Traci and interested listers, Richard is buried at the old Great Crossings church. I have been to his grave and have pix somewhere. Great Crossings is close to Georgetown. My ancestor built a farm in the area after serving under Daniel Boone. His wife was born in Culpeper. My cousin still owns the farm (I believe) and next to it is a building (at Blue Springs) where the Johnson home stands. There is a house next door which my cousin said was "for Johnson's concubines." So what you say is probably true. The water in Blue Springs is really, honestly blue. Also nearby are two more sites of interest: one is a stone building that was used as a Choctaw Indian school, to teach the Indian kids to read and write English. The other is a pasture where Gen'l Lafayette spoke to citizens to get them involved in the War of 1812. He was very successful. I was born in Louisville, KY, but live in southern CA. Luckily, I was able to revisit these places maybe five years ago. If you want to know where they are, please email me privately. My cousin is ill and can't stand a lot of visitors.

Small correction-Daniel Boone was the s/o Squire Boone and Sarah Morgan so Daniel Morgan must have been Daniel's cousin or uncle. Ginny

Hi Phyllis: I have been working on family genealogy for my G Grandfather RICHARD W MORRIS, who married ELIZABETH D JOHNSON who was born in Boonesboro KY near Lexington 5-05-1777. According to family legend her father (MY G Grandfather) JOHNSON was under the command of DANIEL BOONE. I don't know what his first name was. When Richard & Elizabeth were married in Simpson Co, KY a JOHN JOHNSON provided Security for the marriage this may have been a brother. I found a JOHNSON listed in the names of those at Boonesboro, but can't lay my hands on it at this minute. Thank you for the information.

Hello: Does anyone have any information on Mary Steven Jones? She was such a wonderful historian and left lots of great information. I would like to know more about her personally.

Check the History of St.Charles County, Missouri. there, and other places you can find a roster of Daniel Morgan Boone's Mounted Rangers. This was the primary defense force for Missouri during the War of 1812. Spread through this roster, and together with the families that were confined (largely) to the stockaded forts built along the Missouri River (Callaway, Howard, etc.), until safety came with the end of that conflict, you will find most of the earliest families in Missouri who travelled with Daniel Boone. There is also a book of Spanish (and French) Land Grants distributed in early Missouri, before statehood, covering about 1790 to 1803. Daniel Boone, Daniel Morgan Boone's father, was one of the first settlers. A number of Anglo families came with him to Missouri in 1798. Most settled in St. Charles County, Missouri in the Coté d' Sans Dessein and Bachelor Bottoms areas.

To Phylis Murphy re JOHNSON and CROUSE surnames....does your research include any MULLEN or FRY surnames in connection with the JOHNSONs and/or CROUSEs? If so, I'd welcome the opportunity to compare notes... Pat Lewis McDowell Shreveport, LA

Thomas Pinor (Name spelt same as document) Will Book B (1770-1783) Year 1777 - page 222 Culpeper Taxpayers from Virginia Taxpayers, 1782: George Swindle John Swindle Michael Swindle John Swindol Mary Stevens Jones writes for the Culpeper County Historical Society the following: Daniel Boone, who fought with Geo. Washington in the Braddock campaign, served with Jefferson in the Virginia House of Burgess, and led Abraham Lincoln's grandfather into Kentucky, settled his family in Culpeper County for about two years. In 1760, following an attack by the Cherokees of NC, he packed his family and belongings into a two-horse wagon and rode off from the Yadkin Valley toward Virginia. He followed the Northeast line of the Blue Ridge Mountains more than 200 miles to Culpeper, described as "a tobacco-growing community not far from Fredericksburg, the market town on the Rappahannock River." Here they settled. Boone would not plant tabacco, but hired out as a wagoner to carry it to Fredericksburg, 35 miles away, for others. During this period he made the acquaintance of George Washington, who was often in Fredericksburg attending to business of his wife's property and his own nearby estate at Mount Vernon. Boone spent some months on a journey across the Blue Ridge and into Tennessee, and, returning to Culpeper by way of the Yadkin Valley, joined in the last effort made by the southern colonies against the Cherokees. He was among those present when the Cherokees came to the council fire, and, on November 19, 1760, agreed to a lasting peace. When his term of service ended, he, with Jams Norman, a Culpeper neighbor, and Nathaniel Gist, a comrade-in-arms, hunted and trapped all winter through parts of NC and Tenn. and back to Virginia. Twenty months after leaving Culpeper, he started back to Virginia with Norman. Soon afterwards he and his family left Culpeper and returned to North Carolina. At some time prior to 1775 the Transylvania Company, interested in speculation in land in Kentucky, engaged Daniel Boone to blaze a trail from Bedford (near present-day Lynchburg), Va., through Moccasin and Cumberland Gaps to Kentucky. In the spring of 1775, Boone, with a party of 30 persons set forth on this successful venture. Among the members of the party were James and William Nalle of Culpeper County. (About 1720 some members of the Nalle family had come from Essex County to Culpeper and settled in the general area of Griffinsburg, Boston, and Slate Mills on the Hughes and Hazel Rivers and Devil's Run.) James Nalle, a brother of Francis Nalle (Colonel William Nalle's great-grandfather) later returned to his home on the Hughes River near Slate Mills. In 1785 he sold his land and moved to Kentucky where his descendants now live. They dropped the "e" from their name which is now spelled Nall. In Draper's Manuscripts, there is a notation stating "William Nalle had been bitten by a rabid wolf one night while the party was sleeping on the trail and in about two months had died." Boone may have had other Culpeper men besides Nalles in his party who blazed the trail to Kentucky. Near Bowling Green, Ky., there is a bronze memorial tablet to the memory f Boone's party for its "historic service" of cutting the Transylvania Trail, "the first great pathway to the West, March - April, 1775." Boone left his trail-blazing marks in four regions that have become great states - Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Kentucky, and Missouri. He hunted from Florida to the Yellowstone. James Audubon befriended him and painted his portrait. James Fenimore Cooper made him the model of his Leatherstocking stories. Bryron wrote of him with admiration in his epic poem, Don Juan. By the bicentennial of his birth, eight counties, 22 towns, and numerous roads, rivers, and mountains had been named in his honor. Daniel Boone died without owning an acre of the precious land he discovered. Researchers state that he hated coonskin caps and never wore one. Stripped of myth, Daniel Boone, because of his feats of exploration and individual courage, is still an American hero. (Sources: The Lone Hunter; A New Life of Daniel Boone, by Lawrence Elliott; Draper's Manuscripts (on file in the Wisconsin Historical Society, Madison, Wisc.; Tales of Old Culpeper, Col. William Nalle.

I have a picture, very old. of a Judith Johnson Crouse, on the back of it it says cousin of Daniel Boone. Her father was Thomas Johnson of North Carolina. Does anyone know anything about this. Phyllis Phyllis Murphy Home Interiors & Gifts Accessory Specialist IF IT IS TO BE IT IS UP TO ME.

I was mostly just curious if anyone could give evidence to back up the family tradition that our ancestors went to Missouri with Boone. Are there any records of people who Boone acted as a guide for? Rosters of any sort? Probably not, Id guess, but it would be interesting if so. On 07-Jul-2003 Jean Loudin wrote: > Since Daniel Boone is my cousin through his aunt, what is it you need > to know?
