1. Re: [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] Markings on trees and stones with D BOON [1]
Hello Carlis and Elizabeth, Thanks for the interesting sites. I am interested in the names of the group of people who accompanied Boone on his initial trips to KY. I am a Coburn researcher and am told that 'a' James Coburn was part of the initial trips, perhaps even his son John was along also. I am referring to John Coburn who later came to KY, 1786, and eventually became Judge John Coburn. He had also handled some legal work for Boone. In the Judge's Bible he says he is the son of James. I would like

I am very excited about this list in four days of which it had been created. Just today I notice it was listed on the announce page at rootsweb.com, there are already forty members.

Elizabeth, Thanks for the URL, there is a lot of good info there and more links. As I understand the first trip of the Longhunters to Kentucky was forty men in number, They were called the "Longhunters" because they stayed out on a hunting trip longer that any other hunting party. Therefore called "Longhunters". Carlis Elizabeth Laird wrote: Thanks Carlis. Speaking of Longhunters and friends of Daniel, here's a piece by a non-relative about Michael Stoner.

Hi, I thought this was Interesting, especially since this is my Home County. 1760s - First recorded history of the area that would become Adair County is of the Long Hunters, led by Colonel James Knox, who camped, hunted and explored in the Green River area. 1773 - Daniel Boone and companion McGary appear to have been in the county. This is verified by an inscription on two trees found 6 miles west of Columbia. The tree parts are preserved at the Trabue Russell House. Taken from: http://www.rootsweb.c

6. [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] Markings on trees and stones with D BOON [1]
Kentucky was a wonderful challenge to Daniel Boon and his five companions. The year being 1769, the view of the great forests, and streams of water, the fertile valleys and buffaloes, deer, elk, bears, and other small game in abundance. This must have been the answer to all the stories that he had heard about Kentucky. After being captured by the Indians and escaping seven days later he returned to his camp only to find it deserted. Daniel Boone returned to Virginia. He is to return at a later date. I
7. [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] The Rifle of Daniel Boone [1]
The rifle of the noted Daniel Boone was a Kentucky Long Rifle; This Firearm was about as noteworthy as Mr. Boone himself was. "This rifle became the primary weapon of the frontiersmen, especially in the then remote and dangerous wilds of Kentucky. This extensive use in Kentucky led to the adoption of the name "Kentucky" for this rifle. Daniel Boone carried a Kentucky Rifle through the Cumberland Gap." Quote taken from the Kentucky Explorer - Number 3, August 2001. A Short History Of The Kentucky Long R
8. Re: [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] Markings on trees and stones with D BOON [1]
Hi Jan, I've made a careful check of my research materials, and found only Judge John Coburn, and Derry Coburn, a slave of the Boone family with whom Daniel had a close friendship and companionship. This from John Mack Farrragher's "Daniel Boone". Sorry I couldn't find something for you. I would be happy to do lookups in the book for anyone with a request.

9. [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] Daniel Trabue [1]
Hi, I just subscribe to this list. I'm trying to find out about Daniel Trabue, a frontiersman in Kentucky who wrote a book about his experiences titled "Onward to Kentucky". He is the grandson of Antoine Trabue, one of my direct ancestors who came to Virginia (at Manikintown) in 1699. Would love to find out more about him and how to get a copy of the book. I've read through it in part at a library. Regards, Morwenna McKinley __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send FREE
10. [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] Money & Vallandigham [1]
Dear Listers, Having just seen the name of this list on an email in my in-box, I was in a hurry to see if anyone has information on these people associated with D. Boone in KY: Ann Vallandigham, James Mooney (money) Lewis Vallandigham, or Benoni Vallandigham? This is a quote from a cousin on mine a couple of years ago: "James Money (spell it like you want) was born about 1730. In 1769 he joined the company of several others including Daniel Boone in a hunting expedition into Kentucky. Three of the men w

12. Re: [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] Money & Vallandigham [1]
Tom, I have searched my KY resources for your Vallandigham/Vallandingham and have come up empty; however; as you probably know, there are many references for James Mooney/Money/Monay. The men who accompanied D. Boone on the trip you mentioned were his brother-in-law John Stuart, your James Mooney, Joseph Holden and William Cooley. One source: _The Wilderness Road_ Robert L. Kincaid, 1973 Regards, Elizabeth -----Original Message----- From: Thomas Fiske To: BOONE-DANIEL-KY-L@rootsw
13. Re: [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] The Rifle of Daniel Boone [1]
Hi Since there are quite a bit of interest in the Kentucky Long Rifle I have got permission from The Kentucky Explorer to copy and upload the article that I mention in my first message. It is rather large files and will take a little time to download but sure worth the wait to anyone interested in the rifle of Daniel Boon and other frontiers. There are three pages of double columns you may need to use the slider bar to read the one on the right, but wanted to make them big enough to read without any pro
14. [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] Early military surveys in KY [1]
The early discussion on this list is very interesting. My gg-gf was Chesley Callaway, Sr. He was a son of James C. Callaway and Sarah Bramlett (and a brother of Flanders Callaway who married Jemima Boone, Daniel's daughter). I wonder if any of the listmembers are researching him. The following is from my notes on him. Possibly this may be of interest to the group. "The First Military Surveys in Kentucky", by Philip Fall Taylor, provides an interesting discussion of early surveys. Survey No. 1
15. [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] Last Days And Death Of Daniel Boone [1]
Hi, You might like to read these stories about Daniel Boone. Go to The Kentucky Explorer Web Site you will find stories about him. I think there are about six beginning with the August 2000 Issue. The URL for the above story is at: http://www.kentuckyexplorer.com/nonmembers/8-boone.html Another good one of the "Last Days And Death Of Daniel Boone, Kentucky's Great Pioneer" Is at: http://www.kentuckyexplorer.com/nonmembers/BooneStory1.html Hope you enjoy the stories.

16. [BOONE-DANIEL-KY] Daniel Boone moved from Boonsborough! [1]
I understand that Daniel Boone moved from Boonsborough to Boone's Station, Kentucky, due to him being forced to abandon his Claims to the land around Boonsborough because of invalid titles. After Col. Boone died in 1820, The U.S Congress confirmed his claim to the land that he occupied. Would anyone have the dates that The U.S Congress confirmed his claim to the land? Any help with this date or any additional information on the relocation of Col. Daniel Boone is appreciated. Carlis
