   George III Boone Posted 03 Dec 2012 by janicet1946 George Boone III, son of George II and Sarah Uppey Boone, was born at Stoke Canon, England a village near the City of Exeter, in 1666. He married Mary Maugridge, who was born in 1669 in Bradninch, eight miles from Exeter. She was the daughter of John and Mary Milton Maugridge. George was a weaver by trade. George III and Mary Maugridge Boone were the parents of nine children. In 1713, George sent his three oldest children to America to find land. George and Mary and their six remaining children set sail for America and arrived in Philadelphia on Oct 10, 1717. They settled in Berks County, Pennsylvania. With the exception of their son John, all of the children of George and Mary Boone married and had large families. George died at the age of 78 years in Berks County, Pennsylvania and Mary died on Feb 2, 1740 in Berks County, Pennsylvania. Their children are: George Boone IV (b. 1690, England - d. 1753) m. Deborah Howell (b. 1691 - d. 1759) Sarah Boone (b. 1691, England - d. ca. 1744) m. Jacob Stover (Stuber, Stowber) Squire Boone (b. 1696, England - d. 1765,NC) m. Sarah Morgan (b. 1700 - d. 1777, NC) Squire Boone, third child of George III and Mary Boone, was the father of Daniel Boone the famous frontiersman. Squire Boone's significance to this genealogy, however, is due to his influence upon his nephew John Boone in settling in North Carolina. On April 11, 1750, Squire and Sarah Morgan Boone sold their land in Berks County and left with their family, including their sixteen-year-old son Daniel, who was destined to become the most celebrated frontiersman in America. The Boones stopped for a year or more in Linville Creek, six miles north of Harrisonburg, Virginia. It was not until the late autumn of 1751, or some time in 1752, that Squire Boone and his party reached the Yadkin Valley in North Carolina. For his first home site Squire chose a hill overlooking the Yadkin River in the area which soon became a part of Rowan County but which is now in Davidson County. At the first County Court held in Salisbury in June, 1753, Squire Boone was listed as one of the fourteen justices. His residence was given as Boone's Ford. Later in that year, on December 29, Squire acquired land on the western side of the Yadkin River in what is now Davie County, but Rowan County at that time. The grant was for 640 acres on Bear Creek from the Earl of Granville. As indicated earlier, the primary significance of Squire Boone's migration to North Carolina, so far as these narratives are concerned, lies in the fact that he was accompanied or joined soon afterwards by his nephew John Boone, son of Benjamin and Ann Farmer Boone. Additional information on Squire Boone is available from this off-site link. {New window will open.} Children of Squire and Sarah Morgan Boone are: Sarah (1724-1815), married in Pennsylvania to John Wilsockson was not a Quaker. They lived on a land grant near the present Cooleemee, Davie County, NC. The family moved to Kentucky probably in 1779. For additional information on this line, contact Gary and Ruth Ann Ayres. Israel (1726-1756) was buried near the present Mocksville, NC. He and his wife had four children, the two daughters died young. The two sons went to Kentucky probably in 1779. Samuel (1728-1816?), lived on present Rowan County side of the South Yadkin River. All went to Kentucky, probably in 1779. Jonathan (1730-1808?), married Mary Carter. This family also went to Kentucky around 1779. Elizabeth (1732-1825), married William Grant about 1750. The family moved to Kentucky. Daniel (1734-1820), married Rebecca Bryan. The family settled in Kentucky in October 1779. Additional links for Daniel Boone's family provided at the end of this narrative. Mary (1736-1819), married William Bryan and moved to Kentucky. George (1739-1820), married Ann Linville and moved to Kentucky. Edward (1740-1780), married Martha Bryan and moved to Wilkes County.

John Boone (b. 1701, England - d. 1785, PA) He was a school teacher, first to keep track of the family line, he did not marry. John Boone, fifth child of George III and Mary, is a key figure of any story of the early Boones because of the family records which he preserved and passed on to his nephew James Boone, who compiled them into the Old Boone Genealogy from which most of the early records of the Boone family are obtained. Joseph Boone (b. 1704, England - d. 1776, PA) m. Catherine Brown (b.1708 - d. 1778) Benjamin Boone (b. 1706, England - d. 1762) m. 1) Ann Farmer and m. 2) Susanna Likens/Lykins/Lycan (b. 1708 - d. ca. 1784) Benjamin Boone, seventh child of George III and Mary Maugridge Boone, was born in Devonshire, England, on July 16, 1706. He died in Exeter Township of Berks County, Pennsylvania, during the year 1762. Benjamin was eleven years old when his father brought the family to settle with the Quakers in America. Benjamin's marriage to Ann Farmer occurred some time between August 3, 1726 and September 28, of the same year. On the former date, record was made of their intention of marriage; on the latter, report was made that the marriage had been performed. Ann was born in 1701. How long she lived after their marriage is not known; but it is though that her only child, John Boone, was born in 1727. It is also thought that Benjamin Boone went outside the Quaker fold when he married his second wife Susannah, surname not known - and that the marriage took place early in 1737, for on February 27, of that year, Benjamin was in disfavor with the Society of Friends. Benjamin Boone's five children by his second wife were baptized August 6, 1753, at St. Gabriel's Episcopal Church, Morlottan, Berks County, Pennsylvania. By this time John Boone, Benjamin's son by his first wife Ann Farmer Boone, was already married and in North Carolina with his uncle Squire Boone. On January 5, 1762, Benjamin Boone made his will which was proved in Berks County Court on October 27, 1762. The bulk of his estate went to his widow Susannah Boone and to his children by this second marriage; but the will contained one provision which is of great genealogical significance to some of his descendants: "Also I give to my eldest son, John Boone, the sum of five shillings." Without the inclusion of this nominal bequest, the documentation of the relationship between John Boone and his father might have been difficult indeed.

They stopped at a stream in Bourbon County and Edward sat down on a log to watch the horses while Daniel went off in the cane in search of game. A small band of Indians shot and killed Edward. Daniel escaped, and returned the next day with men from Boone Station where they and their families were living at the time, and they buried Edward there where he had been killed. Draper letters report that in about 1827, some of Edward's bones were left exposed from flooding, and the Rev. Richard Thomas collected the bones and reburied them at the Rockbridge Baptist Church nearby.

(10) Nathaniel Boone, b. abt. 1742 (died an infant) This may be new information for some, therefore, an extensive documentation follows. The Boone Society gratefully acknowledges the research of Society member Kathryn Weiss for documenting Nathaniel Boone as a child of Squire & Sarah Morgan Boone. Here is documented her findings: "Two independent, yet strikingly similar accounts of the children of Squire Boone, Sr. and Sarah Morgan were made in: Samuel Bryan’s 1830 History of the Bryans attached to his Revolutionary War pension; and Captain Samuel Boone’s 1855 letter to frontier historian Lyman Draper. Both Samuel Bryan and Samuel Boone were grandsons of Squire and Sarah M. Boone, and the two men (who were first cousins) were naming their Boone aunts and uncles for posterity. Both Samuel Boone and Samuel Bryan named a twelfth child, Nathaniel, for their grandparents Squire Boone, Sr. and Sarah Morgan. Samuel Bryan wrote in his brief History of the Bryans in 1830, "William, my father comeing to the age of 22 years married Mary Boone daughter of Squire Boone the 1, and sister of Colo. Daniel Boone the explorer and settler of Kentucky. Squire Boone who was from the west of England to Pennsylvania where he married Sarah Morgan, of welch extraction by whom he had twelve children, Eight Sons, and four daughters, which were named Sarah, Israel, Samuel, Jonathan, Elizabeth, Daniel, Mary*, George, Nathaniel, Edward, Squire, and Hannah; with his wife and these children he remov,d from Pennsylvania to Rowan County in North Carolina…" (NARA:W9366) "Captain Samuel Boone, (1782-1869) was a son of George Boone and Ann Linville. Samuel Boone wrote to Lyman Draper, Sept. 10, 1855: "Some time in the year 1717, George Boone Grandfather of the late Col. Daniel Boone came from england and Brought with him I think seven sons and settled all or the most of them in the state of pensylvania. Squire Boone one of the seven sons married Sarah Morgan and settled in Bucks County where they raised the following number of Children to wit: eight sons and four Daughters first Israel; second Samuel; third Jonathan; fourth Daniel; fifth George; sixth Nathaniel who died when young; seventh Squire; eighth Edward.

Wall, Flossie Martin and Howell Boone. Davie Printing Company, 1982. Used by permission. Fourth Generation: John Boone, fifth child of George III and Mary, is a key figure of any story of the early Boones because of the family records which he preserved and passed on to his nephew James Boone, who compiled them into the Old Boone Genealogy from which most of the early records of the Boone family are obtained. Squire Boone, third child of George III and Mary Boone, was the father of Daniel Boone the famous frontiersman. Squire Boone's significance to this genealogy, however, is due to his influence upon his nephew John Boone in settling in North Carolina. On April 11, 1750, Squire and Sarah Morgan Boone sold their land in Berks County and left with their family, including their sixteen-year-old son Daniel, who was destined to become the most celebrated frontiersman in America. The Boones stopped for a year or more in Linville Creek, six miles north of Harrisonburg, Virginia. It was not until the late autumn of 1751, or some time in 1752, that Squire Boone and his party reached the Yadkin Valley in North Carolina. For his first home site Squire chose a hill overlooking the Yadkin River in the area which soon became a part of Rowan County but which is now in Davidson County. At the first County Court held in Salisbury in June, 1753, Squire Boone was listed as one of the fourteen justices. His residence was given as Boone's Ford. Later in that year, on December 29, Squire acquired land on the western side of the Yadkin River in what is now Davie County, but Rowan County at that time. The grant was for 640 acres on Bear Creek from the Earl of Granville. As indicated earlier, the primary significance of Squire Boone's migration to North Carolina, so far as these narratives are concerned, lies in the fact that he was accompanied or joined soon afterwards by his nephew John Boone, son of Benjamin and Ann Farmer Boone. Children of Squire and Sarah Morgan Boone are: • Sarah (1724-1815), married in Pennsylvania to John Wilsockson was not a Quaker. They lived on a land grant near the present Cooleemee, Davie County, NC. The family moved to Kentucky probably in 1779. o For additional information on this line, contact Gary and Ruth Ann Ayres. • Israel (1726-1756) was buried near the present Mocksville, NC. He and his wife had four children, the two daughters died young. The two sons went to Kentucky probably in 1779. • Samuel (1728-1816?), lived on present Rowan County side of the South Yadkin River. All went to Kentucky, probably in 1779. • Jonathan Morgan Boone (1730-1808?), married Mary Carter (Marie Carther?). This family also went to Kentucky around 1779. • Elizabeth (1732-1825), married William Grant about 1750. The family moved to Kentucky. • Daniel (1734-1820), married Rebecca Bryan.

Benjamin Boone, seventh child of George III and Mary Maugridge Boone, was born in Devonshire, England, on July 16, 1706. He died in Exeter Township of Berks County, Pennsylvania, during the year 1762. Benjamin was eleven years old when his father brought the family to settle with the Quakers in America. Benjamin's marriage to Ann Farmer occurred some time between August 3, 1726 and September 28, of the same year. On the former date, record was made of their intention of marriage; on the latter, report was made that the marriage had been performed. Ann was born in 1701. How long she lived after their marriage is not known; but it is though that her only child, John Boone, was born in 1727. It is also thought that Benjamin Boone went outside the Quaker fold when he married his second wife Susannah, surname not known - and that the marriage took place early in 1737, for on February 27, of that year, Benjamin was in disfavor with the Society of Friends. Benjamin Boone's five children by his second wife were baptized August 6, 1753, at St. Gabriel's Episcopal Church, Morlottan, Berks County, Pennsylvania. By this time John Boone, Benjamin's son by his first wife Ann Farmer Boone, was already married and in North Carolina with his uncle Squire Boone. On January 5, 1762, Benjamin Boone made his will which was proved in Berks County Court on October 27, 1762. The bulk of his estate went to his widow Susannah Boone and to his children by this second marriage; but the will contained one provision which is of great genealogical sign
