My Family on my Mother's side were descendents of Daniel Boone. His son Nathan married to Olivia Vanbibber was my Great Grandfather several times over. We visited the Nathan Boone home in Ashville Missouri and the Jesse Boone home in Weston Missouri. Several of my Families have visited the Daniel Boone homes. Lots of history in my Family.
The battle of blue licks is in my family history book!! Daniel is my Grand Uncle, 3 of my uncles married 3 of his Daughters. We are the Scholls that built Scholls Station in Clark County Kentucky.
So many Boone descendants have posted here. My 6 greats- grandmother was supposedly Daniel Boone's first cousin. Her maiden name was Elizabeth Boone, and her brother was Captain Hawkins Boone. Elizabeth Boone married John Henry DeFrance. Captain Hawkins Boone is another Pennsylvanian who is interesting to learn about.
This is really wonderfully stuff. I’m very glad I came across this video. I love the stories of Boone and Crockett. Keep ahold of this history. Our history is being erased right in front of us. We may not have much time left to enjoy things like this.
My Grandfather,Daniel Greene told stories to our family about his Grandfather being Daniel Boone's scout.The information can be found found in Daniel Boone's letters. It states that my Great Great Grandfather was Daniel Boone's scout,Daniel Green.He said that Daniel Green was his best scout.On one of his scouting trips with another man,they were attacked by a bear.When the bear clawed his face and he and the bear rolled down into a deep gully,he killed it with his knife.But he had lost an arm,bleeding he went to the camp site and found items to dress his wounds.His friend made it back to the settlement and told them that he was dead.Weeks later my grandfather made it back to the settlement.
I'm directly related to the Dishman's... Mahala Boone married John W. Dishman. History is amazing and from what my mother (Sandra Hayes) has told me in stories always keeps me thinking what it must have been like back then in Kentucky!
That very much sounds like the story I found in doing research on my family ancestors. My ancestor went through the same thing and his last name was Green. I can't remember the first name--but have it somewhere in my research. Amazing !!!!! I think they are one in the same. But in my story, Daniel Boone after hearing the story from the man who left him--He went out looking for the man, Green (my ancestor) and found him alive and that he had indeed killed the bear and saved himself but was weak & Daniel had brought him back to the camp.
@@boydcreek1 Please get back with me for any information you have on Daniel Green. My Grandfather was named after him and he always told that years later he opened a store in Ewing,VA. I know that someone related to him,brother or uncle fought in the Revolutionary War also.I get confused with the generations,what era.
To get back to Daniel Boone's time, we go back to the 5th-great grandparent. That is, if you're over ~40 years old. A 3rd great grandparent would be about right before the Civil War.
Mahala Boone married into the Dishman's who my mother (Sandra Hayes) and I are directly related. My great grandmother is Daisy Belle Dishman on my mother's side of the family. From what I have been told, there is a reunion of the Dishman's at the Dishman Cemetery every year in Kentucky.
I loved studying about Daniel Boone as a young child in US history. Daniel’s adventures in the wilderness inspired me to join the US Army. God bless Daniel!!! 🇺🇸
Slept in Boone cave, my bed was probably the same smooth level slab of stone that Daniel slept on .Built a fire to stay warm and the smoke free directly out the rear of the cave leaving the interior free if smoke. I lived on a road named rebels creek near spruce pine nc. 15 miles from town off if 80 north. The little Glade,no development, with the creek was named by Daniel who watered his horse named rebel was where I spent time contemplating when would Daniel show up.
Great post! Living in the quiet hills of Tennessee, I appreciate those who spilled their blood to bring me where I am today. Illiterates will never learn or give thanks. They are still in the dark ages thinking the Heavens orbit around them.
I can only imagine the sense of freedom that those 18th century pioneers/settlers experienced in America. Those of course who survived the hardships of their journey. Not to mention the Native Americans being forced off their own historic lands.
I live close to the Daniel Boone trail. He was a trail blazier for sure. I always liked Daniel Boone on TV. Everybody said the TV character looked liked my dad. Glad I saw this.
One of my ancestors crossed over the Cumberland Gap with Daniel Boone. Another one got malled by a bear & his friend left him for dead, went home & told Boone about it. Boone went back out looking for the man. He had lived barely & dragged himself under a house eating worms & whatever he could find. Boone got him home. The only reason I know this stuff is because I do genealogy research for my family.
Sounds familiar. One of my 4th Great Grandmother’s was Daniel’s niece, Elizabeth Boone. Have researched many family members who helped explore/settle the West with Daniel.
My grandfather told this story about his grandfather being a scout for Daniel Boone to my older sisters and brothers. He was the one left behind. I forgot his first name,but my grandfathers’ name was Daniel Green,his wife,my grandma’s name was Rachel Lee.Are you related in some way to Daniel Green also?
Randy Boone And you couldn't be bothered to look at how the phone spelled the words? Wow, our younger generation's new world order. Well, futurists said computers would replace humans. I not only didn't believe it, I didn't think it would happen so quickly if it did.
I randomly drove by the PA homestead one day while traveling for work, and I was like.... HOW were we SO obsessed with Daniel Boone as kids and my parents never took me here even though it's less than 80 minutes from our house. I still haven't been there.
Interesting, however while viewing, I was waiting for the narrator to say where this old homestead of Daniel Boone is located. He gives his birthdate but doesn’t say where. For those watching, after looking it up, was in Berks county, Pennsylvania.
The video was originally produced as a visitor orientation at the homestead itself. So mentioning where it was in that context would have been redundant. But your point is well taken.
One of my high school teachers in the late '60s was named Bone. He said that they had misspelled his grandfather's name when his birth was recorded, who was related to Daniel Boone. This was about 30 miles from Cincinnati, Ohio.
robert - My mother's people are from Bardstown. Their last name is Newton. Many of them still live in Nelson County. My FAVORITE PLACES in Kentucky are Bardstown and Lexington! They both have a WONDERFUL FEEL!!!!
Boone always claimed his birthday to be October 22, 1734, which it actually was according to the "old calendar." He didn't abide the change to the new calendar changing his actual birth date, as many didn't at the time. (In the American colonies, where they were a little late in coming around to the new calendar, they added 11 days to get in sync. In Europe, because they accepted it years earlier, they only had to add 10 days.) Also, the Battle of Blue Licks, where Boone lost his youngest son, Israel -- shot through the neck -- happened much later than the Siege of Boonesborough. Blue Licks was August 1782. The Siege of Boonesborough was in 1778.
I knew the quote at the beginning of this vid as "I can't say as ever I was lost, but I was bewildered once for three days." Similar. Either way, great quote.
Visited Daniel Boone's home several times. Been to His grave Many Times in Marthaville Missouri. He's still there! Have known many Boone's kin! My kin was with him when he came through the Cumberland Gap. Have traveled the original Lewis and Clark expedition trail. It is a Indian trail along the Missouri river. Nathan Boones farm is in Ash Grove Missouri. Mine and Daniels family traveled together.
The town of Wilsonville in Oregon was originally called Boone’s Landing because of of Boone’s Ferry operated by Daniel Boone’s grandson and great grandson Alphonso and Jesse Boone. The they both went to the California gold fields where the elder died. The younger came back to Oregon and operated the ferry and Blazed Boone’s Ferry Road from to Salem to Portland. He was eventually murdered by his neighbor as he was at his ferry on the South Bank of the Willamette River. His neighbor said Boone had been killing his sheep, but the rest of the town said that wolves had killed the sheep and not Boone. The ferry remained in operation until It was replaced by Boone Bridge, and Interstate 5 in 1956 if I recall correctly. Several of Boone’s decedents made one last trip on the Ferry before it shut down. Boone’s Ferry Park sits on the north bank side of the river where the ferry was.
I own and live in the oldest home still standing in my hometown of Havre, Montana. It's the picture I use for my avi. The original owner was a man named Daniel Boone, who was originally from Roanoke, Virginia. He came to Havre in 1897 and lived here with is wife, Elizabeth Price Boone, until about 1926. They moved to Evanston, Illinois, where they built a beautiful white Colonial Revival style home and lived there until their deaths; Mr. Boone in 1946 and Mrs. Boone in 1971. Mr. Boone's obituary states he was a "distant relative" of the real Daniel Boone, with the younger's great-great grandfather being Daniel Boone's cousin. So...there's my "claim to fame", that I live in Daniel Boone's house, LOL! BTW, if anyone has any information on "my" Daniel Boone and his wife, Elizabeth Price Boone, originally from Roanoke, Virginia and Evanston, Illinois, please let me know!
Daniel Boone was a man, a big man. Can't recall the rest of the words to the TV show Daniel Boone's theme song. Most of the facts on that show were not true.
My 5th gr grandfather, Richard Wade, was captured with Boone at the Salt Licks and sold by the Indians to the British. Spent three years in prison in Montreal. Escaped and walked back to Kentucky.
The Family Tree that my aunt's put together says I'm some distant kin. Funny how traits carry on. And we repeat ourselves somewhat to a certain degree every generation. Glad I've got good genes.
I am a descendant of John Sappington and am very disappointed that in tv shows or books of Daniel Boone never mention his best friends the Sappington family that migrated with the boones and shared so much together .
No Fess wasn't at all. Daniel was my grandfather and was 5'5. Fess I knew personally in Santa Barbara and he was 6'3. He told me he loved doing the role but always felt he was more of a Simon Kenton than Daniel.
@@peterlynch8478 Daniel was my Fifth grandfather. I guess we are cousins. My mother’s family is all from Kentucky. Ole Daniel’s legend makes him 6 foot tall. Truth is, most men back then were not very tall. I loved the Daniel Boone series as a child, and I think Fess Parker did capture a certain aspect of humbleness that Daniel had.
I was a big fan of the tv series here in Scotland in the 60 s , Always thought that Fess Parker looked and sounded like Gregory Peck. Daniel Boone Was A Man.....
@@turningpointmedia thank you for visiting. It is such a beautiful area, it is not overly developed, some of it probably still looks the same as it did in that time.
The video was designed to be used in the welcome center of the site so that info would be redundant. It’s located in Berks County Pennsylvania. Sadly due to state budget cuts the site is rarely open for tours.
I love these videos about our historical places and people but why the producers think they need loud, distracting music with them I don't understand, it's distracting.
I am not a direct descendant of Daniel Boone, but his sister Hannah Boone Pennington is my 6x great grandmother. Her daughter Sarah Stuart (Stuart). Is how.
We like to lionize Boone, but the fact is that he moved his family to the frontier and left his wife to raise his children largely by herself. She was surrounded by hostile natives, and she and her children had to survive without Daniel’s presence most of the time. For years he returned home only long enough to impregnate his wife again. Daniel is not the hero, his wife is.
I am going to guess you are kinfolk of Mr. Boone's. I have a book titled 'Daniel Boone and the Hunters of Kentucky" published in 1870, written by W. H. Bogart. Never had the time to read it (464 pages). Will find the time now. Hope this finds you well.
I basically spent my childhood at this home until '58. This was Daniel's son Nathan's as he had come ahead and built it. Nathan's sister and my grandmother Susanna was across the road. This house is where grandfather passed and was buried next to grandma Becky. They were moved to Frankfort as an honor, but it wasn't. Daniel did not have a good memory of Kentucky.
I have now produced a one-hour powerpoint video titled "Daniel Boone: A Life at the Edge of Civilization" uploaded to my UA-cam channel (search: Edward Dodson).
Many people did throughout all of history and even though it is horrific it is still history and is there so we never make the same mistake twice. It is there to learn from.
Probably. But Rebecca Bryan Boone, his wife, was an ancestor of my wife's mother. Boone also blazed a trail West from my hometown, where some of Rebecca's family lived.
country Cox A Story Told through my late husband is that His Grandmother (Mary Zanderle Boone) was a Decendant of The Boone Family. Haven't found any Documentation for That yet. She married a Kennedy and still has One Child Living. My Children's 93 year old Grandmother. I wish She would Tell Them Something about the Mystery that I can't Find..
country Cox I am a second cousin to Daniel Boone. A few generations down the road. We share a grandfather and Squire would have been an uncle to me had I lived in Daniels time
Favor de explicar en español porque si explica en ingles y los títulos están en ingles como entender si yo hablo español sugerencia.....favor de traducir en español gracias arte.Clara
If he came back to life he would vomit at the world today the proper license to fish back in the day all wild life belonged to the king folks didn't like having to pay the king for fish and game but look where we are now just pick up the fish and wildlife book and look at the packages they are offering to sell you you got buy your turkey you got buy your deer now days and you can buy from one day fishing to a lifetime I think life cost around 4 thousand $ that is is you live and if you died before they don't give that money back to the family
We forget about the women behind the men during that time. Rebecca Boone gave birth to ten children. She raised them mostly alone because Daniel was gone a lot. Home long enough to impregnate her, then off again.
Daniel Boone sold this homestead to a direct ancestor of mine. My 3x great grandfather, William Deturk, was born on the property.
People have you notice you tube is taking away your comments
Yes they have taken plenty away and have added propaganda bullshit!
That is awesome!
@@maryburke1351 Yes, mary or they are hard to find. It's ridiculous!
Very cool
our 5th great grandfather, Bazel Boren, helped Daniel build the first buildings in Boonesboro, and their wives were cousins... love our history.
That’s really cool! We took an ancestry of my great grandma and it said that Daniel Boone is related to her
How awesome! That’s so interesting!

5th ? And great ? Come on man !
I’m watching this because I have recently discovered that Daniel was my 9th great uncle!
Our family was always proud to have Daniel Boone as our 5th Great Grandfather. I read a lot about him.
@K C He had five daughters, so it was through one of his daughters. He lost a son in the Indian wars in Kentucky.
The battle of blue licks is in my family history book!! Daniel is my Grand Uncle, 3 of my uncles married 3 of his Daughters. We are the Scholls that built Scholls Station in Clark County Kentucky.
Love this. I have been teaching my children about the Boone family history as I am the 7th generation descendant teaching my children their history.
Im directly related to Daniel. My mother was a Boone.

Daniel boone died in his own home in defiance Mo. not his sons home. this is wrong.
Shiral Boone
the video is certainly correct. he died at his son's home
I am going to guess you are kinfolk of Mr. Boone's. I have a book titled 'Daniel Boone and the Hunters of Kentucky" published in 1870, written by W. H. Bogart. Never had the time to read it (464 pages). Will find the time now. Hope this finds you well.
I basically spent my childhood at this home until '58. This was Daniel's son Nathan's as he had come ahead and built it. Nathan's sister and my grandmother Susanna was across the road. This house is where grandfather passed and was buried next to grandma Becky. They were moved to Frankfort as an honor, but it wasn't. Daniel did not have a good memory of Kentucky.
@@peterlynch8478 why not a good memory of ky? these comments are fascinating to me. my husband watches old daniel boone tv show daily!
Not what he said, he said - " I've never been lost but a mite confused"... This political correctness is getting way out of hand...
I may have misquoted but not out of a sense of political correctness. Maybe you should try producing something besides snarky comments.
the people that dont like history dislike and are not educatade well
I pray that sick people don't use these pictures to radar damage to your property or other peoples property... Sick people hurt people...
What moron would thumbs down this history
I have now produced a one-hour powerpoint video titled "Daniel Boone: A Life at the Edge of Civilization" uploaded to my UA-cam channel (search: Edward Dodson).
So, Boone didn't really live in this house.
Not as it stands now. The only remaining portion is the springhouse foundation below the left side of the building.
exactly @fideau
He owned slaves!!!!!
Many people did throughout all of history and even though it is horrific it is still history and is there so we never make the same mistake twice. It is there to learn from.
does Daniel Boone have family to this day
Probably. But Rebecca Bryan Boone, his wife, was an ancestor of my wife's mother. Boone also blazed a trail West from my hometown, where some of Rebecca's family lived.
country Cox A Story Told through my late husband is that His Grandmother (Mary Zanderle Boone) was a Decendant of The Boone Family. Haven't found any Documentation for That yet. She married a Kennedy and still has One Child Living. My Children's 93 year old Grandmother. I wish She would Tell Them Something about the Mystery that I can't Find..
country Cox I am a second cousin to Daniel Boone. A few generations down the road. We share a grandfather and Squire would have been an uncle to me had I lived in Daniels time
yes........lots of them as well as his brothers and sisters have descendants....I am just one of them.
He is my 7th great grandfather. Jemima had 14 children and my great grandmother was a calloway!
So??? The original homestead was where? Terrible way to start a video.
The land of the the twin forks Tennessee ALVIN YORK OK THE HIGHEST DECORATED SOLDIER
Simply assume

If he came back to life he would vomit at the world today the proper license to fish back in the day all wild life belonged to the king folks didn't like having to pay the king for fish and game but look where we are now just pick up the fish and wildlife book and look at the packages they are offering to sell you you got buy your turkey you got buy your deer now days and you can buy from one day fishing to a lifetime I think life cost around 4 thousand $ that is is you live and if you died before they don't give that money back to the family
We forget about the women behind the men during that time. Rebecca Boone gave birth to ten children. She raised them mostly alone because Daniel was gone a lot. Home long enough to impregnate her, then off again.
