daniel boone's home four story
georgian style completed in 1810 and where
boone died in 1820. the village is located in the Femme Osage Valley
again the weather has been wonderful,
temperatures like summer, much to pretty to stay inside, so off i went with my friend c to the home of
daniel boone.
boonefield village is a collection of home from the era that have been gathered up and moved here from other parts of st
louis and st
charles. the homes are from the 19
th century and represent life in the 1800's. the building above is the school house
typical dog trot home, area in the center used as a breezeway to keep the home cool in the summer, one side typically used for cooking etc, the other was the living area
general mercantile store circa 1840.
the rear of
daniel's home
the
sappington-
dressel home circa 1870, the home was taken apart and reassembled in
boonefield village by 2 full time employees and 2 volunteers
on the top of the steeple of old peace chapel
old peace chapel circa 1840, seats about 100 people and is used for weddings, baptisms, renewal of vows.
looking back to the
boone home
the site is owned by
Lindenwood University and is part of the university campus. schools use the area for field trips and re
enactors make history come alive. there are special events throughout the year coming up is the
Christmas candle light tour.
i'm so glad i found this treasure about 20 minutes from my home
