Notes for DANIEL MORGAN BOONE:
Daniel Boone was the most famous pioneer of colonial times. He explored the unknown forests and the fertile meadows of Kentucky and blazed trails to lead settlers there. The wilderness road was his route through the rugged Allegheny Mountains. Daniel had named his favorite rifle, Tick-Licker.

Daniel Boone had lived with Indians for a while and learned their ways, which he used later in life to fight against them. He had supposedly died from eating too many sweet potatoes. His remains and those of his wife were moved to Frankfort, Kentucky in 1845.

Daniel Boone the great frontiersman was born on the banks of the Owatin Run on October 22, 1734. He was named after his mothers brother Daniel Morgan. At the age of 20 he stood five feet eight inches tall but of a powerful build with broad shoulders and chest, strong arms, and thick legs. He weighed 175 pounds. He had pronounced facial features such as: a high forehead and heavy brow, prominent cheekbones, a tight, wide mouth, a long and slender nose. He had his father's dark blue-gray eyes and fair, ruddy complexion. But he had his mother's dark hair which he kept plaited and clubbed in Indian fashion.
Daniel started courting Rebecca Bryan (born Jan. 9, 1739 in Western Virginia) in the summer of 1756 and Justice Squire Boone officated at the marriage of Daniel Boone and Rebecca Bryan on August 14, 1756. Daniel was 21 years old and Rebecca was 17 years old at the time. To this marriage was born 10 children to Daniel and Rebecca. In her early forties Rebecca adopted and raised the six motherless nieces and nephews of a widowed brother. Daniels daughter Jemima Boone was born on Oct. 4, 1762 is said to belong to his brother Edward Boone while Daniel was in the Alleghany War (Rebecca believed he had been killed in the war) so in her grief she turned to Edward for comfort. Daniel suffered from severe attacks of rheumatism in later years of his life. Rebecca his wife died in 1813, and after her death Daniel spent time between the homes of his children Jemima, Daniel Morgan Boone, Nathan Boone, and Jesse Boone. In the last two years of his life he was nearly blind and his weight had dropped to a mere 155 pounds. He became very ill after a hunting trip with friends and family, he never recorvered. Daniel Boone's last words before his death to his family was: "I am going," he said finally, "my time has come". He died on September 26, 1820 at the home of his son Nathan Boone and the family carried him back to his daughter Jemima's home. They buried him next to his wife Rebecca on September 28, 1820, a month shy of his eighty-seventh birthday.
Headstones for Rebecca and Daniel Boone were not erected until the mid-1830's when several of the Bryans made arrangements.
Daniel Boone's body was removed from its original site and moved to Frankfort, Kentucky on September 13, 1845 and Rebecca's remains also were removed.

More Notes For Daniel Boone:
Daniel Boone first went to Kentucky in 1769, but did not move his family there until 1774, crossing the Allegheny Mountains with his wife and several companions after suffering great privations.

After much fighting with Indians he succeeded in establishing a settlement on the Kentucky River, which he named Boonesboro. Here he became the father of a son whom he named Nathan, the first white child born on the soil of Kentucky. The following year he made a trip to Detroit for the purpose of obtaining salt and other much needed necessities from the French and was captured by the Indians.

He succeeded in making his escape single-handed by throwing salt into the eyes of the Indian guards and made his way back to Boonesboro in time to prepare a successful defense of the settlement. On another occasion when he was captured by the Indian, he was absent from home so long that his family thought he had been killed and returned to North Carolina. Boone followed them east and took them back to Kentucky.

Owing to a defective title, he lost his land in Kentucky after the territory had been well settled, and in 1795 he removed to the banks of the Osage River in Missouri. There he also lost his lands when that territory was ceded to the United States by France, and he died at Charrette Village in Missouri, Sept. 26, 1820, in poverty.

Some time before he had settled in Missouri, Daniel Boone paid a visit to his old home in Pennsylvania. According to the old family record, this was on October 20, 1781, while the Revolutionary War was still in progress. He made a second visit on February 12, 1788 when he brought his wife, Rebecca Bryan Boone, and their only Kentucky born child, Nathan Boone, with him. On each of these visits he expressed a desire to return to the old homestead to live.

An interesting part of the house in Exeter is an old �fashioned fireplace. The iron front and mantle piece for this fireplace was made by one of the earliest charcoal foundries in the State of Pennsylvania. On the mantle piece surrounding the fireplace are two marks which are said to have been chiseled by Daniel Boone on May 1, 1750, the day the home was abandoned, to record his height, for when the building was changed the old fireplace was allowed to remain as originally built.

One of the most interesting relics on this old property is an enormous waterbeach tree which towers high above the roof of the house at the west end where the waters of the spring flow out from the cellar to join the river. It is said that this tree was planted August 22, 1734, the day Daniel was born. The tree is watered by the spring which induced the Boones to settle on the spot and is pronounced to be one, of the largest and most remarkable of its kind in existence.

Many important features of the original building have been saved for posterity. The cellar in which the spring rises is a splendid example of the substantial character of the old colonial buildings. The floor of the cellar is entirely of stone, which the walls and high ceilings suggest strength at every point. The entire place abounds in historic interest and is surrounded with beautiful landscapes.

The old Exeter meeting house stands in very much the same condition as in the days of Daniel Boone's youth, and is one of the oldest buildings in Pennsylvania, outside the City of Philadelphia. It stands on high ground a little more than a mile from the Boone house. To one side is the quaint burying ground where the remains of the early Quaker settlers of the valley lie buried. In keeping with the Quaker custom, which prohibits markers on the graves, there are no gravestones in the cemetery. The place is well kept and preserved and has been remarkably free from relic hunters.

Notes for REBECCA BRYAN:
Rebecca Bryan the wife of the famous frontiersman Daniel Boone was the daughter of Joseph and Aylee Bryan, the date was Jan. 9, 1739 in Western Virginia. It was in 1753 when they took notice of each other at a family wedding Rebecca was scarcely fifteen years old at the time. They courted through the summer of 1756 and were married on August 14, 1756, he was 21 years old and she was 17 years old. They had ten children born to this marriage. Rebecca had jet-black hair and dark eyes, said to be a handsome woman by all who knew her, buxom built, similar in build to her husband. Very mild and pleasant speech and kind behaviour and excellant housekeeper. Both sides of their families believed in LARGE families. Over the next 25 years of her marriage she delivered a total of ten children-six sons and four daughters-their birth seperated by an average of only two and a half years. Rebecca's mother, Aylee Bryan bore 10 children, and Daniel's mother Sarah Morgan Boone had 11 children. Rebecca's four daughters had 33 children between them, and the wife's of her three married sons bore another 35 children.
Rebecca died on March 18, 1813 and was buried in the Boone-Brayn burying ground on Tuque Creek, in the settlement of Chareette. And in 1845 Rebecca and Daniels remains were moved from this site to Frankfort, Kentucky on September 13, 1845.
