From the Boone Family by Mayfield-She was tall, robust with black hair and black eyes"with a Welsh snap in them. She was the daughter of Edward Morgan at Gwyneth meeting house and is believed to be the Aunt of the Revolutionary War Hero General Daniel Morgan. General Morgan was commander of Morgan's Riflemen at Sara toga, New York noted for accuracy and the capturing of the British Army under General Burgoyne. From Boone Families In Davie Co. North Carolina; After Squire Boone died in 1765 , Sarah Morgan Boone made her home with Mary and William Bryan until she died in 1777. Sarah was her daughter. From Soelle"s diary (he was a traveling preacher) At William Bryant's he saw "old mother Boone" who was a Quaker.
Because of Indian raids in the Yadkin River Valley, Squire, Sarah and family retreated for a time to Georgetown D.C. and to Maryland. About this time Sarah took her youngest son, Squire by horseback,only stopping to camp at night, home to Pennsylvania to visit family. She returned home without her son, Squire whom she left in Pennsylvania as an apprentice to his cousin Samuel Boone to learn the gunsmith trade. (This knowledge served Daniel Boone well in later years since Squire Jr. could make the guns they needed for protection and to shoot game for food.
