I don't have the answer, but Fort Boonesboro SP is also on my list of places to visit. What I recommend before the visit is to read a biography of Daniel Boone. I did that several years ago. The real Boone was a very interesting character. Did he hope to get rich by leading settlers into Kentucky? What happened when he was captured by Miami indians and taken to Ohio? Did the U.S. want to recognize land claims of the Boone settlers when Kentucky came into the union? Why did Boone leave Kentucky and move to Missouri?
