Hey Cousins, particularly Nathan Boone descendents (Nathan son of
Daniel) the RENDEZVOUS is set . Now there is alot of Zumwalts and Jumps
that married them thar Boones (that's Ozark talk) so I am including those
lists on this notice. (I met alot of Jumps this last time)
I just got off the phone with Father Berry from Ashgrove... he confirms
the Nathan Boone Rendezvous is September 15, 16 & 17th in Ashgrove Missouri.
This is an annual event put on by the citizens of Ashgrove. <<<<There is
usually a tent for descendents to gather and share genealogy
information.<<<<<
Nathan moved from the St. Charles area after Daniel's death to be nearer the
frontier. He was in the Army. Ashgrove is just 15 min northwest of
Springfield.
Last year; Friday night was a concert, Saturday was a day at the park
with booths, food, horseshoes, frog jumping contests, pie eating contests,
petting zoo, and much more.
Saturday also included a tour of the Nathan Boone homestead. Now from what
I hear, the house itself will be closed this year (the inside that is).
Father Berry says the Parks Service has really done a nice job and you will
hardly recognize it. (of course if you never been there....) If you want
to see what it looked like last year I have some photo's on my web site at

Sunday was a Gospel Concert.. I will let the list know what the final events
and times are when I hear.
If your interested in going let me know and I will add you or anyone not on
the list to the notice of where and when.
P.S. Fred's Fish House is a must.......try the pickled tomatoes
