Boone
The story of Daniel Boone is the story of America—its ideals, its promise, its romance, and its destiny.

George Boone IV (1690-1753), a Quaker, emigrated from England to Abington, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, married Deborah Howell in 1713, and moved to Berks County, Pennsylvania. Descendants lived in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, California and elsewhere.
