General Notes: Husband - William Boon


He was a soldier in the War of 1812.

He resided in Delaware some time after marriage, then moved to Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, soon after crossing the mountains to Washington County, the journey occupying several days. They finally arrived in Chartiers township, and Mr. Boon purchased a tract of land, which was cleared and cultivated by the Boon family. In 1824 they removed to Smith township, Washington County, and a few years later settled permanently on a farm in Cecil township. William Boon was prominently identified with the interests of the community, especially those relating to educational matters. In politics he was a Whig and Republican, and held nearly every local office; in religious faith he was a member of the Presbyterian Church.
