Biography

On February 21, 1822 Nancy Linville Boon (Boone) married Alphonso Daniel Boon (Boone) in Round Prairie, Callaway County, Missouri.[1] She was the daughter of John Boone and Mary Polly Morris. It has been incorrectly stated that she was the daughter of George Boone, but George Boone and Nancy Ann (Linville) Boone were her grandparents; John's parents.

Alphonso and Nancy were the parents of Chloe Donnelly (Mrs. George Law Curry), Jesse Van Bibber, Mary Elizabeth (Mrs. Thomas J Norris), George Luther, James C, an infant that didn't live, Harriet B (passed at 4 yrs.), Joshua Morris, Lucy Ann (Mrs. Thomas R Musick), and Alphonso Daniel, Jr.

In the 1840 Federal Census Alphonso and his eight living children are still on their property in Cole County, Missouri (used to be Louis County), so I would think that when Nancy died in 1838 she was buried in the family cemetery close to, or on the property. Cole County Historical Society has a great listing of old cemeteries but coordinates of the Boone property would be needed (and could no doubt be researched locally) to confirm the proximity of any of them.

Alphonso then set up a trading post in Independence, Jackson County, Missouri, and in 1846 he and his remaining children moved along with his sister Panthea and her husband Liburn Boggs to Oregon Territory. He became famous for setting up Boone's Ferry, etc., the area now known as Boone's Ferry Road in Portland, Oregon.

Nancy died June ,6, 1838.[2]
