Daniel Boone

[RJNorton]

Bill, I agree I have seen it often in books. Also, I must admit I don't spend a lot of time with genealogy. I do think Barton was a dedicated researcher. Forum member, Mike Burkhimer, author of "100 Essential Lincoln Books" writes, "Barton can be admired for his research and his detective work, and this book (The Lineage of Lincoln) is his greatest contribution to the Lincoln field." Maybe Mike will see this thread and comment. Bill, if you happen to have access to The Lineage of Lincoln Barton's comment about Boone being related to another branch of Lincolns is on p. 46.
