John Boone

(6 Dec 1727 - 3 Aug 1803)



John was the only child of Benjamin Boone's marriage to Ann Farmer and Benjamin did not remarry for several years. It is thought he may have been raised by his uncle Squire Boone as he settled in Rowan Co NC with Squire.

John Boone was buried on his plantation on Hunting Creek due west of Mocksville, county seat of the present Davie County. The exact date of his death is not known, but on August 3, 1803, letters of administration were issued to Benjamin Boone and John Boone (Jr.) for the estate of John Boone, deceased. He probably died in July, 1803, possibly earlier. It was November 12, of that year, when his son-in-law Mark Whitaker, in Fayette County, Kentucky, executed power of attorney to Benjamin Boone to look after his interests in the settlement of the estate of John Boone, deceased.
