  2. Marriage date is from Pension Record. A biographical sketch of his son, Dr. Levi Day Boone of Chicago, says that the marriage of Squire and Anna Boone occured under circumstances characteristic of that romantic period. Kentucky at that time consisted of only two counties, eastern and western, divided by the Kentucky River. As there was no magistrate in the western county to administer the marriage vow, the couple crossed to the east bank of the river, and there, standing under the shade of a large tree, a magistrate pronounced them one. As the book in which this account appears was compiled during the lifetime of Dr. Levi Day Boone, and probably met with his approval, the above incident can be given slightly more credence than the average tradition.
