Biography
As indicated by the Boone Social club, this person was not related to the "famous" Boone family unit that came from England, but rather, this admirer came from Germany.[ane]
The nearly likely and intriguing possible parents of Johann Diel BOHN b.1711 are Johann Dielman BOHN and Anna Magdalena BOHN[two]
Johann Diel BOHN arrived in Philadelphia on the transport Marlborough on 23 September 1741. On the listing of all menages xvi years and upwardly, he is identified every bit "Dewaile Poon, xxx".5 This makes the year of his nativity as approximately 1711.
In the yr 1741 a German immigrant past the name of Johann Diel Bohne landed in Philadelphia, PA. He arrived on the ship "Marlborough" from the Palatinate, Germany, near the Rhine River. His age is given on the ship's list as 30 years. The original of this document is on file with the Pennsylvania Historical Society at Harrisburg.
On April 10, 1750, fifty acres of land located near Frizellburg, at present Carroll County, Maryland, chosen "Boone's Content" were patented to Theobald Boon (Land Warrant No. 587, Carroll County, Md). We know by Johann'due south volition that this land had come into the possession of Johann Diel Bohne. Peradventure Johann had relatives in the new world before he left Frg. In September, 1752, Johann Bohne caused 80 acres of the "Resurvey on Shear Spring." (State Warrant #1970, Carroll Canton, MD) In October of 1758 Johann acquired 40 acres of the tract "No Whisky." (Land Warrant #2821).4 We can see that this immigrant was acquiring quite a lot of land and his estates were growing.
Johann Bohne died in 1764. Johann had made his will in 1761 earlier a visit to Germany. The witnesses were Michael and Peter Moyers or Myers. English clerks took "Bohn" to be "Bone" and copied it that mode into the volition volume at Frederick, Maryland. A photostat of Johann's signature to the original volition in German shows to have been "Johann Diel Bohn." This family unit has always pronounced it "Benefaction" fifty-fifty to this day. On the dorsum of the will is the statement that the volition was "proved past P. Myers, and the other witness (Michael Myers/Moyers) was dead fifth of April, 1765". The will was filed April 13, 1764 (Liber A #i, folio 209). The executors Johann named did not serve, and Nicholas Bohne, Johann'southward son past his offset spousal relationship, acted as administrator.
