Series: Daniel Boone papers: 19 C
: Draper's annotated correspondence and interviews principally concerning the lives of Daniel Boone's brothers George (1739-1820) and Squire (1744-1815) and their nephew Jesse (circa 1748-circa 1833), son of their brother Israel. From the many descendants of these men Draper obtained the bulk of the material in this volume. A few letters also pertain to Daniel's uncle Benjamin Boone (1706-1762), and to William McConnell and his son James (b. 1779) in Lexington, Kentucky, and to their descendants. One of the letters by N.L. Clarke (1887) not only contains Jesse Boone data but also briefly describes Clarke's experience as a student of Peter S. Ney.
