In the case of Daniel Boones father, Squire Boone, he was disowned when
one of his daughters married out of the Quakers but that wasn't typical.
There may have been more going on there than just his daughters marriage,
there may have been other issues. Generally, the parents were not
punished when a child married out because they were adults.

I may be wrong, but I think the parents could be disowned, as well. Did they
have to publicly acknowledge her error, even though they might still see
her, in order to stay in the meeting?
