Boon is the 1850 and 1860 Censuses, which said he was born in Pennsylvania. I'd appreciate any leads anyone can give me as to his parents or his birth place. I do know that he is not related to the George Boone line (from DNA test results). James' occupation, in Hardy County and Ohio, was blacksmith, but he was also a postmaster in Hardy County, and a Justice of the Peace in Tuscarawas County, Ohio.
