The Boones and Wilcoxsons Locate to North Carolina By the late 1740s, Squire Boone had had enough of the Quaker Church disciplining him for this children marrying outside of the faith. In 1750 in somewhat of a huff, he sold his land, burned some of his belongings, and with children and in-laws, moved down the Shenandoah Valley, first stopping in Virginia and eventually settling in the Yadkin Valley in North Carolina. Although Cherokee wars sent the family back to Culpepper, Virginia in the 1750s, the families eventually settled in the rolling hills of Rowan County.
