There were likely out buildings where some of the male kids slept. They would have had work animals/barn/etc. It is a spread of land; those buildings likely disappeared many decades ago. Also w/so many kids, some would have had cabins of their own--not living w/them anymore, w/families of their own. Since the Boone's traveled as a pack, they probably lived in the vicinity, too. So much of this kind of history gets lost in translation. It was a great tour, beautiful land. Thanks for sharing with us!! Stay safe out there on those gravel roads. Blessings.
Yeah I think you are right. The history does get lost in translation. Like trying to put a puzzle together with missing pieces. Thank you so much for watching ✌️
My mother is a direct descendant of Daniel Boone's youngest sister, "Hannah," and her second husband, Richard Pennington. In case anyone wonders what that makes me in relation to the great man...I can tell you that he is my fifth great granduncle! It's actually quite interesting to read the stories of these people. The Boones, a large family, moved a lot, but frequently ended up with or near each other. Hannah went from Pennsylvania to North Carolina, to Kentucky, to Tennessee, and after the death of her husband, back to Kentucky, where she lived with her son, Daniel, (named for his uncle), until her death in 1828. I found myself looking at this little cabin and imagining what it must have been like to be living on the frontier, raising children, and doing well enough that we are all here today to think about such things. Thank you for sharing.
Yeah it is hard to belief how people lived with so little compared to today. But they had each other and they found a way. Really puts things into perspective. They truly lived off the land. Thank you so much for the information you shared in your comment. I love the interaction one gets from folks about history. So much to think about and imagine during a different time. Take care ✌
My Wife & I both are related through Hannah & The Penningtons, one of my GReat, grandfathers, I don't remember how far he was, married Johanna Pennington.
I don’t think there was a time when all 10 kids were living there at the same time. One or two of the older sons were killed during the Indian wars. The oldest daughter went back to N. Carolina to live with family. One little side note concerning the kids, one time when Daniel had been gone on one of his explorations for over a year, when he came home he discovered that Rebecca had a small baby. It turned out to be from his own brother. Daniel excepted the child as his own, he said that it was still a Boone.
The Stuckers(jake, David and families) moved with them from PA. Also in that move was Abraham Lincoln(president Lincolns grandfather) they also went eastward with Boones family and extended family into KY
When Boone lived there, the kids had grown and were on their own, if still living. One thought about why he built a cabin there is that it is near Blue Licks where one of the sons was killed.
@@SinisterClutch Hard to say He had a total of 14 or something and maybe they meant at this time he had ten still living. Long time ago. Everyone of these places has a different story. Thanks 😊. Nice video
Since Daniel Boone is in my family tree, on my mother's side, I'm always interested in hearing more about him. Thank you for this video and the info you mentioned.
How beautiful...lovely scenery. Thanks for uploading. Maybe the older kids were already married and moved out by the time more kids came along?. Remember everyone married very young then. Even the old bomb place (built around 1960 give or take) i live in now in suburban Sydney has three bedrooms, all very small. I often wonder how they fitted 4 kids (around that time was number of kids was very common around here) into the two smallest bedrooms with wardrobe etc. Greetings from Aus. 🇦🇺
The Boone's did adopt other children if I remember correctly. I think they were Daniel's brother's children. I imagine some of them slept in the loft and in the floor. Hard times call for desperate measures. Thanks for watching from AUS. Greatly appreciated!
Can't imagine being the Middle of Winter, Mom is trying to Cook a small dinner at the Fireplace and there are 10 Kids in this Small Space. These People Had to have had Nerves of Steel and Mentally Super Human.

Wow! This was so cool to see since I'm probably not going to be able to see it in person. I'm a Boone descendant and the more I research my Dad's side the more I enjoy learning about them, especially Daniel. My Dad is a direct descendant of Daniel's older brother Israel who's children were raised by Daniel and Rebecca after being orphaned when both parents died of TB. Israel's son Jonathan is my Boone line. Israel was kicked out of the Quakers for marrying a non-Quaker (Baptist) girl and his Father backed his marriage so they booted him, too. The grave story is kinda funny in a way. Missouri says he's buried up there in their state still and KY has the wrong person in that grave. The original name was De Bohun from Normandy (La Manche) area of France. They came over when putting William the Conqueror on the throne in England and were a very prominant family. One of the 25 Barons who forced King John to sign the Magna Carta was a De Bohun direct ancestor of Daniel's. There's so much really interesting history that I discovered while looking into my ancestry. It was a gift for my Dad because there was a break in his family & he had trouble finding out where his Grandfather came from. (His Dad was very young when parents died.) It's also my understanding that "The Last of the Mohicans" was actually based off of an incident involving Daniel Boone rescuing his daughter (Abigail) & the daughter of another Officer after being kidnapped by Native Americans. He'd already lost a son by a Native tribe. Didn't make Daniel hate the indigenous peoples of the land, though. Fun fact: Abraham Lincoln's family traveled through The Wilderness Trail with Daniel. I believe it was Daniel's cousin (daughter of his Dad's brother) who married Abe's Grandfather (or Great Grandfather).
I remember reading that 6 kids were adopted by Daniel and Rebecca that were Israel's kids. Correct me if I'm wrong. I've read a lot of possibilities regarding where Daniel Boone is buried. The burial is located in Frankfort and I've read that not all the remains were transported or someone transported the remains of a slave because the gravesites were mixed up. I'm not really sure of course but it is an interesting story for sure. Definitely reading more on the story of "The last of the Mohicans" now that you bring it up. I do know Fort Boonesborough was captured by Shawnee and Daniel was adopted as a son of Chief Blackfish and given the name "Sheltowee" Your comment is by far the best comment I have received thus far, so thank you so much for that. I really appreciate you watching and sharing so much information. Take care ✌
@@SinisterClutch I only know of 4 kids of Israel's, but you're right in there being some discussion about there being 1 or 2 more. Still chkg on that occasionally to see what they find out. Yes, the grave story was that KY got the body of a slave because they were adjacent to each other (or intentionally because of the dispute over who deserved to bury him, MO or KY. The story about Daniel's captivity with the Shawnee is awesome. Not only was he with them & given that name of Sheltowee, which meant "big turtle" due to his broad shoulders, but Daniel reportedly managed to escape upon hearing Boonesborough was going to be attacked. Apparently, Daniel ran barefoot the entire way to warn the town and it's not like that was just down the road either. I can't recall the exact distance, but I think it was something like 70-100 miles.
@@growinggenerationshomestea516 It's been so much of a treasure hunt looking into the Boone ancestry. Tons of interesting history & stories all the way back to the furthest traced (last I know) being the De Bohun, which is the original form of the name sometimes spelled De Bohon, in the La Manche area of Normandy, France before moving into Britain. There are still a couple of roads named for the family in that area if that peninsula of France. I believe it was Humphrey De Bohun who was instrumental in assisting in helping William the Conqueror claim his place on the throne. Also, apparently one of Daniel's direct paternal line was one of the 25 Barons who forced King John to sign the Magna Carta. Another one later on was born in Pleshey Castle which was in the Boone family fir a couple hundred yrs & fortified by them. Although it's not in the family now, the main housing areas are still standing & are still in use for special events. Another one of that paternal line was married to a Plantagenet, daughter of King Henry, if I recall correctly.
@@rebeccacurtis6680 my husband's family were the first ones to settle Letcher County KY. They are Scott/Irish and come from clan McLoughlin. My family is German and we have copies of their signatures from the boat they came on. History is so neat. I'd of lived to live back then
Howdy- this just popped up on my feed and glad it did. Love old log cabins. I build handcrafted log cabins and did the restoration on the Chism house in Logan County,Arkansas. A son of Steven H Chism was born there and named Benjamin Boone Chism, supposedly after Daniel Boone. Thank you for sharing this video. God bless
Thanks for watching! Greatly appreciated. I'm in Arkansas every year it seems. I'll be there again this year in Eureka Springs. I'll check out your channel. Take care sir
That's just pretty cool man, there's a lot of history there on that property, if only those walls could talk, I would have loved to have lived back in that time, but I wouldn't have ever seen a Motorcycle lol 🤣🤣, nicely done brother 💯👊🏼😎
@@SinisterClutch hey videos like this one, take all the time you need Brother, I know I am interested enough to watch a longer version of it, you done it proper and justice 💯
That was really interesting. The sewing whittling machine is actually a spinning wheel for making fiber for knitting or weaving. Next time I'm down that way I'll have to stop by there.
That is really cool!! I keep looking around that cabin and I'm trying to imagine where everyone slept. Like that pretty creek. I will be looking forward to your other Daniel Boone videos!
Yeah the setting was like something you would imagine but wasn't sure it would be like that. It was cool coming over the hill and seeing it. Thanks for watching👊😎
That is very cool! I love seeing history that I haven't been to myself. I like the way you put this together as well, and no will be watching for more in this series!!
This was awesome to see and the information about everything was so cool .....Not much room in that house for all them people. And yes more about this would be so cool

I'm a big fan of Daniel Boone, I've got two trips plan this summer, (one to the Cumberland gap, I haven't been there since they built the tunnel) and another trip to Limestone city, (currently named Maysville) which was a settlement by Daniel Boone and Simon Kenton. (Which is also the home of Bourbon whiskey. ) Not all of Daniel Boone's kids were his. Love this video.
Great info and didn’t know that about his kids. I’ve been going through that tunnel on my way too Norris Lake most my life. There’s some controversy around Daniel Boone’s grave site that I wanted to film now that hopefully the rain will hold off. Supposed not all of his remains were transferred to KY. Appreciate you watching and the feedback. Take care and enjoy your trips🤙
@@SinisterClutch On one of Daniel's long hunting expeditions (for two years) Rebecca Boone figured Daniel was dead and hooked up with Dan's brother Ned and they had a daughter, but as in typical Daniel's personality, he understood and raised the daughter as his own.
I am currently visiting Kentucky for a few days, and I was wondering what all the fuss was about when it came to Daniel Boone. Thank you for the info! He really was as cool as people say!
Look up the story of the larger than 10 foot man he claimed he killed, him & his son were hunting in the deep mountains & he heard his son in trouble went to help & saw what he claims was a huge tall hairy man with big hands & feet & long Red hair & beard, his son had shot him in the chest twice he saw the blood & wounds from a distance, it picked his Son up & was slamming him on the ground, he fired 1 shot & got him in the eye killing him as it fell on his son, luckily he was hurt but not too badly, they measured it and said it was just over 10 feet tall, he always told this story even when ridiculed, both men always called it a 10 foot hairy Man, so I am doubting this was what we call Bigfoot, I think they were intelligent enough to have said it looked like a big ape or ape man, but they did not, they said a man with long red hair, they cut it's chest open & it would like double or extra thick plated, nothing like a Human that's why his son's 2 shots to it's chest did not stop it, but Daniel's shot to the eye in the head Killed it, they are too far in the mountains to attempt to carry back such a huge heavy thing, they never returned to this particular area for anything again.
Daniel Boone is one of my heroes and I am interested in anything connected to him . Thank you very much for sharing this because I would like to see it sometime .
Fantastic slice of history there - the cabin looks like it has been kept in great shape. Like you, I can't imagine being cooped up in that little space with a wife and tend kids 😳 Thanks for the mention - I'm looking forward to seeing more Boone history 👍
Is that cabin for sale? LOL! Like is it just open all the time? Very cool bit of history, love it!! I was singing the theme song Daniel Boone while you were in there! Love the owl! Did you hear the radio static buzz while you were inside? That was cool maybe some active spirits!! Nice road in there except the gravel! Looking forward to the series!
Thanks for your video. The item in the corner was a spinning wheel, used to make yarn for knitting socks, sweaters, scarves etc. The yarn was made from the wool of sheep.
Just now been studying up on Daniel Boone been watching movies series about four months now. Mr Walt Disney did series run Daniel Boone. I'm kind of a late bloomer getting to know Daniel Boone pretty cool dude. It's never too late to learn something so interesting Mr Daniel Boone. Even about our past presidents just cool stuff out there from the past to learn and key points should be taught in the schools
Hi, loved finding this. My children are 6th Great Grandson's of Daniel Boone through is son, Jesse on my late husband's side (he was 5th great grandson). I did the research and Jesse is not one of the children presumed to be Daniel's brother's due to a long absence when Rebecca and his brother thought he had died... I love finding this. With regard to raising the ten kids there, if it was built in 1795, Daniel was 61 and his kids were grown. A lovely retirement home for he and Rebecca had they not felt they had to leave Kentucky. I will be looking on your channel for more great videos.
Yeah I question whether there were kids there with them unless they adopted kids which I believe they did. But perhaps they were older and some stayed but not sure. Thank you so much for watching. Greatly appreciated!

Randy, it's crazy to me that people complain about the size of their houses and living space these days. ESPECIALLY when looking at how simply people used to live. And with 10 kids!!!!! 5:22 - you can always tell a true Kentuckian in how they enunciate "Louisville"...lol. I look forward to seeing more of your Daniel Boone content!!!!

Awesome video. I love stuff like that. Back in east TN I used to go visit Davy Crockett's cabin near Limestone from time to time. Also loved hiking the trails by Fort Watauga, history is cool. You should look up Daniel Boone, if y'all haven't, interesting stuff.
No way!! I'm from Nicholas County, Kentucky. Believe it or not I've never been to this cabin. Passed by it hundreds of times, and always wanted to know what it looked like 👍
Yeah it is not seen from the road and as I was going down the gravel road I was skeptical on how far it was 😂. But coming over the hill and seeing it was nice! Such a beautiful area. Thanks for watching and commenting✌
@@SinisterClutch no problem, thank you for posting something on UA-cam from my home county, it was so wild to see this pop up on my recommendations. If you ever wanna check out more places in Nicholas County try Lake Carnico, where I live, not far from the cabin you were at. Also Clay Wildlife Management Area and Blue Licks Battlefield State Park. Really glad I discovered your channel man 👍✌
I've been past it a thousand times, it's on my way to my barber over there in Carlisle. I only realized what it was within the last year. Still haven't stopped by there.
Would have loved more close up of how this house fits together and more about the logs toward the ceiling. If Daniel built this w help of neighbors family or not I would love to see exactly how it’s built. Thank you for this video
He built it with some help from Daniel Morgan who owned the land then shortly after the Son moved to Missouri as he was the 1st one to arrive in Missouri.

I am one of Rebecca Boone Goe's granddaughters on my mother's side, making Daniel Boone my 6th great grandfather. Hey, are you SURE that ALL 10 kids lived THERE? I mean, if it's his LAST log cabin, weren't the kids grown and gone by then??? Just curious from Houston. Be blessed! Thanks for sharing!
There’s a link in the description that talks about them living there. So that’s all I have to go by. I’m not 100% sure so supposedly they did based on the site that advertises this cabin.
He fought the Battle of Bluelicks, which is really close to there. It's a state park, and if you go during the week, the museum has several videos about him, and even had a salt pot that's supposed to have belonged to him. It was $4 to get in last time I was there. I think you could find some content there. I don't know if they'll let you film in the museum or not, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
I haven't been to the museum but I did stop by the restaurant a few times. I'll have to call and ask what I can film if anything. Appreciate the info and will definitely check it out. Thanks for watching and commenting✌
Is this in red river gorge area of ky? I know there’s a few cabins or maybe just one of his there. I’ve spent many years hiking and backing in that area. Such a special place. Grew up in Cincinnati, funny because as a child I had no clue how special all of these areas were! Daniel Boone national forest is a great wilderness to explore too. Thanks for sharing 😁
I'm having a hard time figuring out how 12 people lived in this small cabin, but I know they made it work. We are now living in an age, where we would have to go back to this style of living.
Yes we do! Minimalist seems to be the way to go because everything is just going up. Time to grow a garden and live off the land. Appreciate you watching✌
That thing with the wheel that you thought was a sewing machine, was a spindle.. for spinning wool or fiber into thread. I’m surprised that there were valuables in there, left untouched.. the spindle, the bed, the table, the oil lamps..

Boonesboro is in Winchester, Ky. Just outside Lexington off St. Rt. 64. I’ve been there. Not really much at the original site, but there is a reproduction of Boonesboro not far from it.
@@SinisterClutch I went to the actual site of Boonsboro and the park. The park is in between Winchester and Richmond, but the actual site is in Winchester.
The way things are going these days, I'm surprised it doesn't have spray paint all over it or even burned down! This place should be locked up and protected! It didn't look like the chimney had soot in it! With twelve people living there, I'm pretty sure there would be a lot more beds! I'm sure the area looked much different when he and his family lived here! I'm guessing that the larger sidewalk is a fairly recent edition. Was the lake there then, for that would be a source of water?
I'm not sure if the lake was there but yeah it would of been a great source of water. It definitely should be protected and it is taken care of for sure. I'm glad to be able to see it and share it. Thanks for watching!✌
My third great-grandfather lived in that same area, close to Carlisle from the 1790s to his death ca. 1820. His initials were the same as Daniel Boone's son, who sometimes is attributed to living in the cabin but it has been refuted. My ancestor's name was Nehemiah Bennington; he's in the records in Nicholas Co. and was in the religious revivalism of the early 1800s. He had 8 or 9 children. I thought Daniel Boone went back up the Ohio River and operated a general store in Point Pleasant, VA for a couple of years with a son settling business debts, liens, deeds, and mortgages while others in his family migrated fully to MO and built what would be his home in 1817. He lost a lot of wealth making settlements to people who thought they were misled on land they bought from him where the surveys were faulty. Is the Concord Cemetery a little north and east of Carlisle reclaimed? It is historical.
Yeah he operated a trading post in 1790 at Point Pleasant but not sure for how long. Is the Concord Cemetery near a church? I know of Old Concord Church south of Carlisle. I believe it was built back in 1793.

e My hubby's family married into the Boone family and some of my Family followed him to Boonesbrough early on! I believe it was one of Daniel's brother's ! They all came from the same area in Penn.and were Quakers in the same Bourgh! My Family were Mennonites from that area!

ua-cam.com/video/ArWcNW24tZc/v-deo.html To continue the story, this is a link to Daniels Boone's home in MO, which was built in 1817 by his son. This featured cabin was built in 1795 and he was born in 1734. By 1795, he was 61, so surely some of those 10 kids were grown and away from home.
Yeah I’m not sure. That’s just what I read from the documentation but yeah he was much older by then. Thanks for sharing the link. I’ll be sure to watch it.

My mother is a direct descendant of Daniel Boone's youngest sister, "Hannah," and her second husband, Richard Pennington. In case anyone wonders what that makes me in relation to the great man...I can tell you that he is my fifth great granduncle! It's actually quite interesting to read the stories of these people. The Boones, a large family, moved a lot, but frequently ended up with or near each other. Hannah went from Pennsylvania to North Carolina, to Kentucky, to Tennessee, and after the death of her husband, back to Kentucky, where she lived with her son, Daniel, (named for his uncle), until her death in 1828. I found myself looking at this little cabin and imagining what it must have been like to be living on the frontier, raising children, and doing well enough that we are all here today to think about such things. Thank you for sharing.
Yeah it is hard to belief how people lived with so little compared to today. But they had each other and they found a way. Really puts things into perspective. They truly lived off the land. Thank you so much for the information you shared in your comment. I love the interaction one gets from folks about history. So much to think about and imagine during a different time. Take care ✌
My 9x Great Grandmother, Sarah Adeline Boone Stover, was Daniel Boone's aunt. I guess that makes DB my cousin. We might be related too!
My Wife & I both are related through Hannah & The Penningtons, one of my GReat, grandfathers, I don't remember how far he was, married Johanna Pennington.
I don’t think there was a time when all 10 kids were living there at the same time. One or two of the older sons were killed during the Indian wars. The oldest daughter went back to N. Carolina to live with family. One little side note concerning the kids, one time when Daniel had been gone on one of his explorations for over a year, when he came home he discovered that Rebecca had a small baby. It turned out to be from his own brother. Daniel excepted the child as his own, he said that it was still a Boone.
The Stuckers(jake, David and families) moved with them from PA. Also in that move was Abraham Lincoln(president Lincolns grandfather) they also went eastward with Boones family and extended family into KY
When Boone lived there, the kids had grown and were on their own, if still living. One thought about why he built a cabin there is that it is near Blue Licks where one of the sons was killed.
Yeah that’s a possibility. I read they adopted too. Yeah I believe it was Israel Boone who died. Thanks for watching ✌️
Thank you so much for this tour! I am a 7th great granddaughter of Daniel and Rebecca Boone and would love to tour anything Boone! Love it!❤️
That’s awesome! Thank you for watching and so happy you enjoyed it. Take care✌️
Hey, Becky, my three year old granddaughter is also 7th great granddaughter (on my late husband's side, not mine).
Boone would have been 61 years old when he built this cabin in 1795. Most of his kids were grown and on their own with their own families.
That’s what the documentation said 🤷
@@SinisterClutch I think his daughter raised a family of 10 or 11 kids there after Boone went to Missouri.
@@SinisterClutch Hard to say
He had a total of 14 or something and maybe they meant at this time he had ten still living. Long time ago. Everyone of these places has a different story.
Thanks 😊. Nice video
Thanks for the little history lesson of Daniel Boone. It was a cool experience, thanks for taking us along.
Appreciate you watching. I like these destination rides and history. Take care😎🤙
Probably were several more beds upstairs. The children slept 3 or 4 in a bed?
@@paulchristian7693 Maybe?
Since Daniel Boone is in my family tree, on my mother's side, I'm always interested in hearing more about him. Thank you for this video and the info you mentioned.
Thank you for watching! Greatly appreciated. I'm glad you enjoyed it.✌
Me too! Daniel Boone's aunt, Sarah Adeline Boone Stover, is my 9x Great Grandmother.
Was told he’s in my tree also!
How beautiful...lovely scenery. Thanks for uploading.
Maybe the older kids were already married and moved out by the time more kids came along?. Remember everyone married very young then.
Even the old bomb place (built around 1960 give or take) i live in now in suburban Sydney has three bedrooms, all very small. I often wonder how they fitted 4 kids (around that time was number of kids was very common around here) into the two smallest bedrooms with wardrobe etc. Greetings from Aus. 🇦🇺
The Boone's did adopt other children if I remember correctly. I think they were Daniel's brother's children. I imagine some of them slept in the loft and in the floor. Hard times call for desperate measures. Thanks for watching from AUS. Greatly appreciated!
Love historical places like that. Very cool. I can't imagine 10 kids in that little place. 😀 Well done. 🤘👍
Me too and these are some of my favorite videos to make. Appreciate it👊😎
NOW THIS HOW THE HOUSES WERE BUILT IN DANIEL BOONE TIME.
Can't imagine being the Middle of Winter, Mom is trying to Cook a small dinner at the Fireplace and there are 10 Kids in this Small Space. These People Had to have had Nerves of Steel and Mentally Super Human.
@@gailcurl8663 Only Daniel & his Wife lived there, he was 60 by then & they only had 11 total kids, 4 died years before he moved here, his son Daniel Morgan owned the land & Daniel built the Cabin. If more had lived there, they would have had the help then to build a bigger home, this many has his facts totally wrong on many counts. The home is owned by the County & taken care of by the Preservation society for the cabin & Daniel boone, , just over the hill from where he rides in from on his Bike is a good sized Animal Farm with Zebras, and many other animals, it's fully manned 24 hours a day, , and farmer owns the land & lives there, so it's not like it's abandoned, you can just go in & look around on your own.

Wow! This was so cool to see since I'm probably not going to be able to see it in person. I'm a Boone descendant and the more I research my Dad's side the more I enjoy learning about them, especially Daniel. My Dad is a direct descendant of Daniel's older brother Israel who's children were raised by Daniel and Rebecca after being orphaned when both parents died of TB. Israel's son Jonathan is my Boone line. Israel was kicked out of the Quakers for marrying a non-Quaker (Baptist) girl and his Father backed his marriage so they booted him, too.
The grave story is kinda funny in a way. Missouri says he's buried up there in their state still and KY has the wrong person in that grave.
The original name was De Bohun from Normandy (La Manche) area of France. They came over when putting William the Conqueror on the throne in England and were a very prominant family. One of the 25 Barons who forced King John to sign the Magna Carta was a De Bohun direct ancestor of Daniel's. There's so much really interesting history that I discovered while looking into my ancestry. It was a gift for my Dad because there was a break in his family & he had trouble finding out where his Grandfather came from. (His Dad was very young when parents died.)
It's also my understanding that "The Last of the Mohicans" was actually based off of an incident involving Daniel Boone rescuing his daughter (Abigail) & the daughter of another Officer after being kidnapped by Native Americans. He'd already lost a son by a Native tribe. Didn't make Daniel hate the indigenous peoples of the land, though.
Fun fact: Abraham Lincoln's family traveled through The Wilderness Trail with Daniel. I believe it was Daniel's cousin (daughter of his Dad's brother) who married Abe's Grandfather (or Great Grandfather).
I remember reading that 6 kids were adopted by Daniel and Rebecca that were Israel's kids. Correct me if I'm wrong. I've read a lot of possibilities regarding where Daniel Boone is buried. The burial is located in Frankfort and I've read that not all the remains were transported or someone transported the remains of a slave because the gravesites were mixed up. I'm not really sure of course but it is an interesting story for sure. Definitely reading more on the story of "The last of the Mohicans" now that you bring it up. I do know Fort Boonesborough was captured by Shawnee and Daniel was adopted as a son of Chief Blackfish and given the name "Sheltowee" Your comment is by far the best comment I have received thus far, so thank you so much for that. I really appreciate you watching and sharing so much information. Take care ✌
@@SinisterClutch I only know of 4 kids of Israel's, but you're right in there being some discussion about there being 1 or 2 more. Still chkg on that occasionally to see what they find out.
Yes, the grave story was that KY got the body of a slave because they were adjacent to each other (or intentionally because of the dispute over who deserved to bury him, MO or KY.
The story about Daniel's captivity with the Shawnee is awesome. Not only was he with them & given that name of Sheltowee, which meant "big turtle" due to his broad shoulders, but Daniel reportedly managed to escape upon hearing Boonesborough was going to be attacked. Apparently, Daniel ran barefoot the entire way to warn the town and it's not like that was just down the road either. I can't recall the exact distance, but I think it was something like 70-100 miles.
Wow, lots of information! Awesome
@@growinggenerationshomestea516 It's been so much of a treasure hunt looking into the Boone ancestry. Tons of interesting history & stories all the way back to the furthest traced (last I know) being the De Bohun, which is the original form of the name sometimes spelled De Bohon, in the La Manche area of Normandy, France before moving into Britain. There are still a couple of roads named for the family in that area if that peninsula of France. I believe it was Humphrey De Bohun who was instrumental in assisting in helping William the Conqueror claim his place on the throne.
Also, apparently one of Daniel's direct paternal line was one of the 25 Barons who forced King John to sign the Magna Carta. Another one later on was born in Pleshey Castle which was in the Boone family fir a couple hundred yrs & fortified by them. Although it's not in the family now, the main housing areas are still standing & are still in use for special events. Another one of that paternal line was married to a Plantagenet, daughter of King Henry, if I recall correctly.
@@rebeccacurtis6680 my husband's family were the first ones to settle Letcher County KY. They are Scott/Irish and come from clan McLoughlin. My family is German and we have copies of their signatures from the boat they came on. History is so neat. I'd of lived to live back then
Howdy- this just popped up on my feed and glad it did. Love old log cabins. I build handcrafted log cabins and did the restoration on the Chism house in Logan County,Arkansas. A son of Steven H Chism was born there and named Benjamin Boone Chism, supposedly after Daniel Boone. Thank you for sharing this video. God bless
Thanks for watching! Greatly appreciated. I'm in Arkansas every year it seems. I'll be there again this year in Eureka Springs. I'll check out your channel. Take care sir

I'll be doing some more videos soon. Thanks for watching!
I'm a big fan of Daniel Boone, I've got two trips plan this summer, (one to the Cumberland gap, I haven't been there since they built the tunnel) and another trip to Limestone city, (currently named Maysville) which was a settlement by Daniel Boone and Simon Kenton. (Which is also the home of Bourbon whiskey. )
Not all of Daniel Boone's kids were his.
Love this video.
Great info and didn’t know that about his kids. I’ve been going through that tunnel on my way too Norris Lake most my life. There’s some controversy around Daniel Boone’s grave site that I wanted to film now that hopefully the rain will hold off. Supposed not all of his remains were transferred to KY. Appreciate you watching and the feedback. Take care and enjoy your trips🤙
@@SinisterClutch On one of Daniel's long hunting expeditions (for two years) Rebecca Boone figured Daniel was dead and hooked up with Dan's brother Ned and they had a daughter, but as in typical Daniel's personality, he understood and raised the daughter as his own.
@@theoldmanflynchmotovlog4846 You sir are a Boone historian 🤘
I am currently visiting Kentucky for a few days, and I was wondering what all the fuss was about when it came to Daniel Boone. Thank you for the info! He really was as cool as people say!
His grave is in Frankfort and Fort Boonesboro is in Richmond. Thanks for watching ✌️
Look up the story of the larger than 10 foot man he claimed he killed, him & his son were hunting in the deep mountains & he heard his son in trouble went to help & saw what he claims was a huge tall hairy man with big hands & feet & long Red hair & beard, his son had shot him in the chest twice he saw the blood & wounds from a distance, it picked his Son up & was slamming him on the ground, he fired 1 shot & got him in the eye killing him as it fell on his son, luckily he was hurt but not too badly, they measured it and said it was just over 10 feet tall, he always told this story even when ridiculed, both men always called it a 10 foot hairy Man, so I am doubting this was what we call Bigfoot, I think they were intelligent enough to have said it looked like a big ape or ape man, but they did not, they said a man with long red hair, they cut it's chest open & it would like double or extra thick plated, nothing like a Human that's why his son's 2 shots to it's chest did not stop it, but Daniel's shot to the eye in the head Killed it, they are too far in the mountains to attempt to carry back such a huge heavy thing, they never returned to this particular area for anything again.
This is so awesome thank you so much for this video
Thanks Brian. Appreciate you watching and the feedback.
Daniel Boone is one of my heroes and I am interested in anything connected to him . Thank you very much for sharing this because I would like to see it sometime .

Yeah these are some of my favorite videos to make. The destination then history and sometimes to discover new places to ride 🤘😎
Loved this. And love the history of Daniel Boone. Thx...great ride !!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching. Beautiful area.
Fantastic slice of history there - the cabin looks like it has been kept in great shape.
Like you, I can't imagine being cooped up in that little space with a wife and tend kids 😳

You sparked the topic my friend so had to show support for sure. Thanks for watching and appreciate all the support😎🤘
Really good video! Good mix of on the bike and cabin footage. Ride On!!
Appreciate it brother. All this rain is keeping me from riding this weekend
Thanks for sharing. I'm going to be in that area this fall so shall include the cabin in my travels.

Is that cabin for sale? LOL! Like is it just open all the time? Very cool bit of history, love it!! I was singing the theme song Daniel Boone while you were in there! Love the owl! Did you hear the radio static buzz while you were inside? That was cool maybe some active spirits!! Nice road in there except the gravel! Looking forward to the series!

"Please close the door" and of course he leaves it open. lol
to get light in to video
Yep🤣😂. No electricity I need light 🤣
Love that you tell a story of the places you visit, nice touch...FYI I hate gravel as well...paved roads baby!
Yeah I like to research and talk about where I'm going. Adds something to the video. Appreciate you watching🤘
Just now been studying up on Daniel Boone been watching movies series about four months now. Mr Walt Disney did series run Daniel Boone. I'm kind of a late bloomer getting to know Daniel Boone pretty cool dude. It's never too late to learn something so interesting Mr Daniel Boone. Even about our past presidents just cool stuff out there from the past to learn and key points should be taught in the schools
I’m still learning myself. Love the history
Have a great weekend, we hope you spend it creating some more great content or maybe just enjoying an awesome ride. See you later.
I’ll do both 🤣😂. I’ll ride 30 or 40 miles before I start filming. Hope you get some riding in this weekend. Take care and enjoy the ride 😎🤘
Thanks for the history, enjoyed. Have a great weekend.
Thanks for watching Larry. You have a great weekend also.
Hi, loved finding this. My children are 6th Great Grandson's of Daniel Boone through is son, Jesse on my late husband's side (he was 5th great grandson). I did the research and Jesse is not one of the children presumed to be Daniel's brother's due to a long absence when Rebecca and his brother thought he had died... I love finding this. With regard to raising the ten kids there, if it was built in 1795, Daniel was 61 and his kids were grown. A lovely retirement home for he and Rebecca had they not felt they had to leave Kentucky. I will be looking on your channel for more great videos.
Yeah I question whether there were kids there with them unless they adopted kids which I believe they did. But perhaps they were older and some stayed but not sure. Thank you so much for watching. Greatly appreciated!
I really like the History!! 10 kids !! Wow..not room for 10 bunk beds!!...Hmmmmm. I need to see that! Thanks Randy!!

There’s a link in the description that talks about them living there. So that’s all I have to go by. I’m not 100% sure so supposedly they did based on the site that advertises this cabin.

He fought the Battle of Bluelicks, which is really close to there. It's a state park, and if you go during the week, the museum has several videos about him, and even had a salt pot that's supposed to have belonged to him. It was $4 to get in last time I was there. I think you could find some content there. I don't know if they'll let you film in the museum or not, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
I haven't been to the museum but I did stop by the restaurant a few times. I'll have to call and ask what I can film if anything. Appreciate the info and will definitely check it out. Thanks for watching and commenting✌
Is this in red river gorge area of ky? I know there’s a few cabins or maybe just one of his there. I’ve spent many years hiking and backing in that area. Such a special place. Grew up in Cincinnati, funny because as a child I had no clue how special all of these areas were! Daniel Boone national forest is a great wilderness to explore too. Thanks for sharing 😁
Red River Gorge is about 50 miles away from this area. It’s closer to Paris or Cynthiana. Beautiful area to see. Thanks for watching ✌️
I'm having a hard time figuring out how 12 people lived in this small cabin, but I know they made it work. We are now living in an age, where we would have to go back to this style of living.
Yes we do! Minimalist seems to be the way to go because everything is just going up. Time to grow a garden and live off the land. Appreciate you watching✌
@@SinisterClutch Got my fruit trees and my garden. I'm good to go. Be blessed!
He was 60 by the time he had this cabin, so most of his children would’ve been grown, and I believe two of them were killed prior to that time.
@@kirvenslade8923 Make sense
4 died many years, 2 I think at birth, they had 11 total.@@kirvenslade8923
That thing with the wheel that you thought was a sewing machine, was a spindle.. for spinning wool or fiber into thread.
I’m surprised that there were valuables in there, left untouched.. the spindle, the bed, the table, the oil lamps..
Thanks for letting me know. Yeah a lot of interesting things to see. Thanks for watching ✌️
I cant imagine 10 kids!! Great vid!
Thanks brother 😎💪. He wasn’t shooting blanks 😂🤣
@@SinisterClutch no joke! He was locked and loaded! 😂
Only Daniel & his Wife lived there, he was 60 by then & they only had 11 total kids, 4 died years before he moved here, his son Daniel Morgan owned the land & Daniel built the Cabin. If more had lived there, they would have had the help then to build a bigger home, this many has his facts totally wrong on many counts. The home is owned by the County & taken care of by the Preservation society for the cabin & Daniel boone, , just over the hill from where he rides in from on his Bike is a good sized Animal Farm with Zebras, and many other animals, it's fully manned 24 hours a day, , and farmer owns the land & lives there, so it's not like it's abandoned, you can just go in & look around on your own.
Such beautiful land
Absolutely beautiful area. Love riding through the country
Boy he really upgraded when he moved to Missouri.
Yeah I remember seeing pictures of his home there and huge difference.
By 1799 Daniel Boone was about 65 years old so I would imagine most of his children were no longer living with him
Hey who knows. Different times then. Family stuck together those days. Appreciate you watching ✌️
Very nice video.
Thank you very much!
I love stuff like this I'm the youngest of 11 we all have the same Mom and Dad
That’s a big family 😃. I do love history and I can appreciate the struggle of those times. Family had to stick together. Thanks for watching and commenting ✌️
First cousin 8 times removed and I love this stuff. Good job!
Thanks for watching! I'm glad the cabin is being taken care of.
@@SinisterClutch I’ve got to get me to Kentucky and see this stuff. Times a wastin.
@@mrjcbuc Stop in Frankfort to see the grave site.
The interior of the Boone cabin on the set of Fess Parker’s TV production showed more square footage.
Really? I’ve never seen the show but I’ll have to look it up. Appreciate you watching 🤙🤘✌️
I'm with you on cramming 2 adults & 10 kids in that cabin like sardines in a can. Guess that's what that loft was for. Lol.
Yeah true and possibly the floor🤣😂. Do what you can with what little you do have.
wonder where all the kids slept the loft wouldnt hold all of them great video
Thank you! I imagine some slept in the floor.
it would be great if you came to Harrodsburg
Some great history in Harrodsburg
My fifth great grandfather fought for Fort Harrod. And buried there in the cemetery.
Boonesboro is in Winchester, Ky. Just outside Lexington off St. Rt. 64. I’ve been there. Not really much at the original site, but there is a reproduction of Boonesboro not far from it.
You mean the state park? Isn’t that in Richmond?
@@SinisterClutch I went to the actual site of Boonsboro and the park. The park is in between Winchester and Richmond, but the actual site is in Winchester.
@@rah2209 Oh gotcha. Thanks for the info and appreciate you watching.
@@rah2209 The park and fort are in madison county across river is clark county and winchester,
You wrote Manchester, which is Clay county, you meant Winchester, which is Clark. Could have been autocorrect, it's good for changing things.
The way things are going these days, I'm surprised it doesn't have spray paint all over it or even burned down! This place should be locked up and protected! It didn't look like the chimney had soot in it! With twelve people living there, I'm pretty sure there would be a lot more beds! I'm sure the area looked much different when he and his family lived here!
I'm guessing that the larger sidewalk is a fairly recent edition. Was the lake there then, for that would be a source of water?
I'm not sure if the lake was there but yeah it would of been a great source of water. It definitely should be protected and it is taken care of for sure. I'm glad to be able to see it and share it. Thanks for watching!✌
My third great-grandfather lived in that same area, close to Carlisle from the 1790s to his death ca. 1820. His initials were the same as Daniel Boone's son, who sometimes is attributed to living in the cabin but it has been refuted. My ancestor's name was Nehemiah Bennington; he's in the records in Nicholas Co. and was in the religious revivalism of the early 1800s. He had 8 or 9 children. I thought Daniel Boone went back up the Ohio River and operated a general store in Point Pleasant, VA for a couple of years with a son settling business debts, liens, deeds, and mortgages while others in his family migrated fully to MO and built what would be his home in 1817. He lost a lot of wealth making settlements to people who thought they were misled on land they bought from him where the surveys were faulty. Is the Concord Cemetery a little north and east of Carlisle reclaimed? It is historical.
Yeah he operated a trading post in 1790 at Point Pleasant but not sure for how long. Is the Concord Cemetery near a church? I know of Old Concord Church south of Carlisle. I believe it was built back in 1793.
Daniel Morgan Boone was the 1st to move to Missouri, in 1799 Daniel gathered the entire Family, grown kids, grand kids & moved to Missouri with them.
10 kids. Lots of descendants. Wonder where they are now...? Great place! Cozy for fewer people...😉😅 100,000 acres! Wow! There's a great fiddle tune called Cumberland Gap...
I know that tune! The area where the cabin is located is gorgeous and there is Blue Licks Battlefield close by. Some of this history is a mystery.

I'm related as are many. 100,000 acres was not all his, he was a terrible business man and had little to no paperwork and other things.
e My hubby's family married into the Boone family and some of my Family followed him to Boonesbrough early on! I believe it was one of Daniel's brother's ! They all came from the same area in Penn.and were Quakers in the same Bourgh! My Family were Mennonites from that area!
That is awesome and thanks for sharing! I love the interaction from this video. There is so much to talk about and imagine how life and times were then. Appreciate you watching✌
Impeccable manners and mutual respect would have been necessary to keep the peace, one might imagine.
Appreciate you watching! 🤙🤙👊✌
Daniel Boone IS BLACK 🖤 Blessings and Hugs 💖💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕!
I am at Lexington KY so what's up bro
Hey thanks for watching. I'm about an hour from Lexington. I lived there during college.
How is the world did they fit 10 kids in this cabin ??? Afterthought, there is a big loft 👍👍👍
Stuff them in there anyway they can 😂🤣. I assumed some slept on the floor possibly?
Keep doing it's history
Will do and thanks for watching Larry. Greatly appreciated✌
Sarah Boone Wilcoxson is my 9th grandmother. Interesting information
Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoyed it. Take care✌️
God bless.
Thank You
TEN KIDS IN THAT CABIN? I would've gone insane
You and me both😂🤣. That's a crowd!

I am kindon to Daniel Berman of the frontiersman he is my seventh great-great-great-grandfather oh my grandma signed the family I like to have his cabin on my property 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Appreciate you watching. There’s so much history in KY on Daniel Boone. Take care✌️
ua-cam.com/video/ArWcNW24tZc/v-deo.html To continue the story, this is a link to Daniels Boone's home in MO, which was built in 1817 by his son. This featured cabin was built in 1795 and he was born in 1734. By 1795, he was 61, so surely some of those 10 kids were grown and away from home.
Yeah I’m not sure. That’s just what I read from the documentation but yeah he was much older by then. Thanks for sharing the link. I’ll be sure to watch it.
