Biography of Jemima Boone

Jemima was born in 1786. She was the daughter of Jonathan Boone and Susannah Nixon. She passed away in 1876.

Jemima Boone Setzer was the grand-niece of pioneer Daniel Boone. In her obituary notice, the Dec. 14, 1876 edition of the Lenoir Topic stated that she was a "woman of strength and character, noted for her goodness of heart." It also stated that she was never out of the county in which she was born.[1].
