Gail, this is about the Boons, from The 1693 Census of the Swedes on the
Delaware, by Craig.
"Anders Bonde came to New Sweden in 1639-40, aboard the Kalmar Nyckel.
He later adopted the surname of Bonde (farmer in Swedish). Under English
rule, the second syllable of his surname was dropped, so that the surname
became Boon in most civil records." Thus, there have been Bonde/Boon/Boones
in Chester since before there WAS Chester. What given names/dates are you
looking for?
S.
