Notes for Albert Gallatin (Spouse 1)
650The Boones jumped off from Westport, Missouri, where Alphonso's brother, Albert Gallatin Boone, ran his own general store catering to the overland trade. The Boones with their eleven wagons joined a California-bound wagon train which they expected to stay with to Fort Hall or thereabouts. Traveling in the same train were several people whose names are still known to historians, including Edwin Bryant, J. Quinn Thornton, T. H. Jefferson, George Law Curry, and George Donner and family.

Among the myriad and confusing Boone descendents was a son, Morgan, whose 1842 three-room log cabin with fireplace of "sawn stone" has been preserved by the Kansas City Museum. And a nephew, Albert Gallatin Boone, operated an outfitting store in the 1850's at 500 Westport Road in the building now known as Kelly's Tavern. [see picture]
