General Notes: Husband - Daniel Boone


The famous pioneer of Kentucky.

He was born in Exeter township, Berks County, Pennsylvania, on a farm which was about one mile north of Baumstown. His father, Squire Boone, then owned and occupied the farm, having bought it in November, 1730. The dwelling in which he was born was still standing in 1886, though much enlarged and improved. He and his father and family left the township in 1750 and migrated to North Carolina; and thence, some years afterward (1769), he led a party into the unknown regions of Western Virginia, "beyond the mountains," where he distinguished himself by his boldness, his experiences with the Indians, his narrow escapes and his successful career as a pioneer. His life in that early period of our country has made him the most conspicuous person in the first steps of our civilization westward of the Allegheny Mountains.
