John C. Boone was a son of Nathan Boone and a grandson of Daniel Boone. He was born at the large stone house at Femme Osage which is now known as The Daniel Boone Home. He had an interesting career as a Confederate soldier and claimed to have been an aide-de-camp of Gen. Sterling Price. Many daring escapades are attributed to him.

John C. Boone was first married to Mary Coulter Wardlaw in 1841 in St. Charles County, Missouri. They had 4 children. Mary legally divorced him in 1884 in St. Louis. He married (*probably not an official marriage) Nannie A. Bryson (132142434) and they had one child, Josie Ione (60052433).

IMPORTANT NOTE: I have searched for his burial place for several years and talked with a number of historians in the Sulphur Springs area. We have NOT found a grave with his name on it. Based on what I know, the Confederate Cemetery in Fayetteville appears to be the most likely place but this is NOT confirmed. I continue to search. (Margy Miles)
