From THE BOONE FAMILY by Hazel Atterbury Sprater The Boones were Quakers and John Wilcoxson was not. The Church notes say that they treated her for marrying out and her father was spoken to by members of the Church. Her father was chastised by the Quaker church for letting her marry a non member and he apologized and said that he would be more care in the future. Friends church records 5-29-1742 ", Sarah daughter. of Squire Boone, treated with for marrying out " Another says Sarah Boone out of th Unity with Friends ( first offense of this kind ). Friends appointed to speak to the father, Squire Boone.. the same day Squire Boone declareth he did not countenance or consent to the marriage but confesseth himself in fault in keeping them in his house after their keeping company but that he was in great streight in not knowing what to do and hopeth to be more careful for the future. --------------------------------------------------------------- This is not an error as her niece, Sarah Boone, daughter of Squire Jr. also married a John Wilcoxson who is our direct line. The two are easily confused. I confirmed this by several sources. ----------------------------------------------------------------- From SQUIRE BOONE AND HIS DESCENDANTS. Sarah Boone daughter of Squire and Sarah Morgan Boone born 7 June 1724 near Chalfont, New Britain Twp, Bucks Co. Pa. Married at Exeter Pa. 29 May 1742 a non-quaker, John Wilcoxson, born 1720 Berks Co. They went to N.C. when her parents moved there. They lived in Coolumee, Davie Co. N.C. Then they went to Ky. when her brother, Daniel Boone, and the others went to Ky. ( Abt 1779 ) ----------------------------------------------------------------- From notes of Linda Jean Thompson Ryan - well documented Sahar Boone maried John Wilcoxson in 1742. The Boones were quakers and evidently John Wilcoxson was not since Sarah was Condemned for marrying out. Sarah's marriage ( and also the fact that her first child was born suspiciously soon after the marriage ceremony ) added further strain to the already stretched relationship between Squire's family and their Quaker society. Soon, Squire moved his family from Penn to N.C. Sarah and her husband migrated with the rest of the family.. They had eleven children ----------------------------------------------------------------- From WILCOXSON AND ALLIED FAMILIES by Wulfeck Treated with for marrying out - friends appointed to speak to father, Squire Boone..
