| We begin with our "oldest" direct ancestor, as of June 1999 . . . You can also review the Generally Accepted Theory of the earlier Ancestors, as well as problems with that theory. THOMAS BOON: B: ca. 1725, Bertie Co., North Carolina ( now Northampton County); D: 01/1800, Northampton Co.; M: ca. 1748 to ALICE WINBORNE B: unk ; D: 17591763 ; M: (2ndly) ca. 1763 to ZILTHIA B: unk ; D: must have died prior to 1796, as she is not in Thomas' Will.
- WILLIAM BOON: B: abt. 1749 ; D: May 1775; M: ca. 1773; ANNA WINBORNE: B: abt 1753 D: aft.1795, dau. of ; William has died before his father, THOMAS, makes out his will in 1796, but at that time, all of William's children are under age. Some of their names are listed in WILLIAM's will of 1794. All are listed in court records in June 1795. He also designates his father, THOMAS, and James Winborne, Sr. as Executors.
- MARY BOON: B: ca. 1751 ; D: < 1826; M: 12/17/1779 JOSEPH BOON: B: unk ; D: > 1826
- MARTHA BOON: B: ca. 1752 ; D: > 1826 ; M: // JONATHAN GAY: B: // ; D: //, son of (information comes from C.W.Buck)

- NICHOLAS BOON: B: 1740 - 1755 ; D: 1807; M: after 1797; DEBORAH GUMBS (Gums); B: bef. 1773 ; D: 01/--/1826; dau. of Abraham Gumbs and Susannah ???; Nicholas would have been between 45-59 years old when (or IF) he married Deborah, so it is possible that there was another, earlier wife. We do know that Deborah has a son, named Elijah Gumbs at birth, before 1797, and that Nicholas Boon is required by the court in, Sept. 1797, to provide "10 pounds 3 shillings 9 pence" for 2-years maintenance of a bastard child.
- JAMES BOON: B: ca. 1764 ; D: //1829, Northampton Co.; M: ca. 1785 WINNIFRED LASSITER: B: ca.1765 ; D: //1845 ; dau. of Jesse and Mary Lassiter;

- JOHN BOON:: B: unk ; D: --/--/1826 ; M: ca. 1801 HONOUR ------------- ; (all the names and order of his children are drawn from the distribution of property from his brother, Thomas', will, distributed to living heirs in 1826. John had died, by this time, so his share was distributed to his children)
- THOMAS BOON: B: bef. 1796 ; D: abt. 1823 ; Appears to die unmarried and without children. His property distribution to his brothers, sisters and their heirs in 1826 provides key documents that help to identify and locate many of his relatives.
- HENRY BOON:: B: 1774-1775; D: 08/--/ 1826 ; M(1st): abt 1807, TEMPERANCE BOON, dau of ??? and Rhoda Boon; M(2nd): 5/1/1825, SARAH BRANCH: B: unk ; D: Aft. 1826; dau. of. ; Also mentioned in will are that Henry owned land known as "Stoney Hill Plantation, near Smith's old mill " , which is divided between sons Daniel and James Lawrence)
