Biography

The Boone Society and other “expert” researchers agree that any ancestors of George Boon(e) I is pure conjecture. Anyone finding definitive resources to prove any of the parentage should post that information in G2G.

Research Cautions

The Boone Society has not been able to find the marriage or birth records for George Boone II and his wife, Sarah and cannot confirm her maiden name of Uppey. Because “Uppey” is used in the Old James Boone Genealogy, the Boone Society accepts it, and “Oppey/Opie are names also under consideration.

However, The Boone Society does have burial records for both George II and his widow (written “wido” in the old records) Sarah which are recorded at Stoke Canon Parish, Exeter, England. (The Church at Stoke Canon is St Mary Magdalene.^[1]) The original records are now located at the Devon Record Office in Exeter, England, and they read as follows:

Documents owned by the Boone Society:
George Boon was buried ye thirty first of May [1696].^[2]
Sarah Boon wido was buried ye 5th of February 1708. (This would be 1709 New Style).^[3]

Relying on the James Boone Genealogy that George II was age 60 at his death, then his approximate year of birth is calculated to be 1636; and Sarah, age 80 at her death, would have been born 1628.
