Is Anything Adult Anymore?
1) A huge THANK YOU to everyone who stopped by The Book Roast on Tuesday! I so appreciate it. All your awesome comments made me look super popular.
2) Head over to The Spectacle for our Friday the 13th book giveaway. We're giving away The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman and The Farwalker's Quest by our very own Joni Sensel (this is an ARC with an epilogue which never made it to the hardcover).
3) Thank you to S. B. James for the introduction over on her blog!
4) The winner of The Book of Nonsense by David Michael Slater is Casey! Email me your address and I'll send it out! And thanks to everyone who entered!
So I'm in our indie bookstore the other day, and I happened to be glancing at the Teen Fantasy section. My question is this:
Why are there so many "adult" books shelved in the teen fantasy section?
I saw The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger, the whole Across the Nightingale Floor series by Lian Hearn, and The Host by Stephanie Meyer just to name a few.
(And just a note: these are ALL fabulous books I truly enjoyed. But they are not teen books—at least they weren't published as teen books).
OK, The Host I can understand given the success on the Twilight series. But has the line simply vanished between teen fantasy and adult fantasy?
I notice this seems to be isolated to fantasy. As if the fact that things are not real justifies younger people reading them. I'm not saying I disagree, but I'm curious what your thoughts are.
(BTW, fans of The Time Traveler's Wife, did you see Audrey Niffenegger's next book, HER FEARFUL SYMMETRY, just sold at auction for 4.5 million and is scheduled for Fall 2009 publication?)
And Happy Wednesday!

How exciting - I've never won a book before! Thanks PJ!
I think booksellers are putting adult fantasy into the teen section because both fantasy and young adult are hot right now. The bottom line? They're trying to make more sales because a lot of their customers, teen and adult, are heading for that section. - 8:51 PM

I have long felt that the line between teen and adult SFF has little to do with age and more to do with theme. Adult SFF tends to be harder--harder science, higher epicness to the fantasy elements. They tend to be more focused on world building than character building--and what character building there is seems (to me) to be more about Statement Character Building (i.e. the character finds Courage, or Sympathy, or, sometimes, Feminism).
On the other hand, I think teen SFF is less focused on the science and epic-ness, and more focused on characters.
I think it comes to this:
-adult SFF explores how a fantastic world works and the characters within it.
-teen SFF explores a new world and how that world AFFECTS the chracters--the characters react more than they exist - 8:55 PM
- PJ Hoover said...
Yay, Casey! You are totally a winner! My son picked your number.
Theme. Very interesting point, Beth. I've never so much thought of it in those terms. But come to think of it, much of the fantasy I read in my twenties was more world building (though I still loved the characters).
I'll have to start testing this theory out. - 9:30 PM
- Solvang Sherrie said...
I know that as a teenager I read a lot of adult books, some that my parents would probably be mortified to hear about! But back then we didn't really have YA books. Catcher in the Rye was shelved with classics and even though V.C. Andrews had children as main characters, I really don't think they were intended for 13 year olds.
I'm sure that with book sellers it comes down to economics. And since YA is still a growing genre, maybe they're trying to fill in with books that might crossover.
Not sure how I'll be reacting to that when my kids are reaching for "adult" books... - 12:29 AM
- Maggie May said...
Wow that price tag is AMAZING. she hit the jack pot with Time Travelers Wife which I still have not read- despite hearing about it constantly.
- D.A. Riser said...
It's the disappearance of America's youth. Right or wrong, kids today are exposed to everything at as young an age as possible.
- lynn said...
My local library puts adult fantasy in the teen section as well--I think it's because the line between teen and adult fiction is so thin. I started reading 'adult' books in middle school. And since teens are reading now (hooray!) it makes sense to lure them into reading MORE with books that will keep them interested as they grow up [HA! as if we actually grow up :) ]
- PJ Hoover said...
Ah, V.C. Andrews, Sherrie! What great memories those bring back. But you're right. Teen main characters, but I don't think intended for teens. Or maybe they were.
The Time Traveler's Wife is a great story, Maggie! It brought me to tears. And yes, totally on the jackpot!
The disappearance of America's Youth, Dan! That makes it sound so final. And sad. But true.
So the libraries do it too, Lynn? That's interesting because their goal is to get kids to read, not to buy books. A whole different spin on the matter.
Thanks for visiting! - 8:33 AM
- Cynthia Leitich Smith said...
Did you also happen to notice whether more YA fantasies were shelved in the "adult" fantasy section (because YA has a huge crossover readership, too--about half of my reader mail comes from grown-ups)?
- PJ Hoover said...
Now that is an excellent question, Cynthia. I will definitely check next time I am there. But would I look in the adult Fantasy section or the adult fiction section I wonder. I'll check both.
- Lady Glamis said...
I think this is interesting, too. If you go to a small privately owned bookstore, perhaps you should ask the owner why he/she shelved the books there? That might give you some insight. :)
- Feywriter said...
I think fantasy readers don't discriminate between the two. From personal experience, I read any fantasy that sounded interesting - adult or teen. Then again, our teen section of the public library was tiny, so I had to look on the regular shelves to satisfy voracious reading habits.
- C.R. Evers said...
I went over and signed up for the contest. Yay!
I took a mini-lecture course in Fantasy literature and there was a time when all fantasy was considered to be for children. All of the earlier works of fantasy were automatically labled for children because back then they considered any made up worlds or magic to be only for kids. I think that's why there is sitll a difficult distinction today, because it's only fairly recently that fantasy has been given a seperate "adult" label. I think the line between adult and YA fantasy is difficult to discern because of its history.
Just my 2 cents.
Christy - 9:17 AM
- PJ Hoover said...
Asking is a great idea, Michelle! My theory was it all comes down to increasing sales, but then Lynn mentioned the library.
Fantasy does seem to be an exception, Mary! I can't imagine finding Janet Evanovich in the Teen realistic fiction section.
So the history of fantasy comes into play, Christy. Interesting. And also maybe because so many fantasy main characters are teens, even in "adult" stuff.
Thanks for dropping by! - 9:38 AM
- Tabitha said...
4.5 million?? Oh wow!! That's so exciting! A good friend of mine is good friends with Audrey, so now I've got to go tell her!
Wow, that's great news! Thanks for sharing! - 10:11 AM
- lotusgirl said...
I think it's all about who the sellers and library think will be interested in a particular book. Fantasy does appeal a lot to teens and, as long as there is nothing inappropriate for them in the book, then it seems a good marketing strategy to put them where the readers will find them. I would think they put them in adult section as well as teen.
- PJ Hoover said...
It is very exciting, isn't it, Tabitha! I can't wait to read it, too!
I think that line between what is appropriate and inappropriate is vanishing, Lois. Maybe that's the whole reason.
Thanks! - 10:43 AM
- Angela said...
Congrats, Casey. Ad PJ, you are super popular!!
- PJ Hoover said...
You think so, Angela???? Do you think I can get a date to the prom? Ah, the quest for popularity. :)
- Kelly said...
Good post, I agree with a lot of the comments here already. Many adults read YA so it's one stop shopping! Plus teens want to grow up so fast too....
- PJ Hoover said...
I remember wanting to grow up quickly, too, Kelly! Wonder why? But so true about one-stop shopping.
- Keri Mikulski said...
Congrats, Casey!
Wait.. Did I just read 4.5 million???? I need to get back to work.. :)
I noticed a ton of chick lit books are in re-print and shelved YA - FISHBOWL is one I saw recently. - 3:50 PM
- PJ Hoover said...
So chick-lit is making it's way into YA also, Keri? And yeah, I know. 4.5 million. So nice.
- beckylevine said...
I was picking up Terry Pratchett books yesterday at the library, and they were in both the adult section and the teen section--obviously, he does fit both, but I was wondering about things being scattered around in a LIBRARY! :)
- PJ Hoover said...
It does seem so scattered, Becky. Like multiple copies of everything are needed. I guess that's where computers for tracking come in handy.
Love your cover! - 11:54 AM
- C.R. Evers said...
I almost forgot that sometimes they put cross over books in both sections of the library. Some publishers will have 2 different covers, one that appeals to adults, that will go in the adult section of the library and a cover that is more teenish. So, technically, one book can be both in the YA and adult section at the same time. I wonder if the Time Travelers wife is one of them.
Christy - 6:43 PM
- D.A. Riser said...
I think we should all recommend to the libraries and bookstores to put our books in both the adult and teen sections. Just for purely helpful reasons, of course ...
$ $ $
PJ, it'd be, umm, very helpful to readers for libraries to purchase two copies of your book. - 6:58 PM
- PJ Hoover said...
The cover was the same one I have for TTW, Christy. But I have seen those refitted novels with different covers which is so intriguing!
Now Dan, that is a great suggestion! Go libraries!
Happy Friday! - 9:10 PM
- Christina Farley said...
That is bizarre about the teen section. I haven't been to a bookstore since last summer. I can't wait until we go home this year! It will be like heaven.
- PJ Hoover said...
You will have a great time, Christina, when you get home!!!!!
- Kelly H-Y said...
I have to admit ... hearing some of the books my 13 (almost 14) year old niece has read ... I was thinking she wouldn't be reading them if it were up to me! But, it's such an interesting phenomenon.
Did you catch the 'What is YA and Where Should We Put It?" article in the Jan/Feb 2009 issue of SCBWI? I thought it was an interesting article, and I'd literally JUST read it (yes, I'm a bit behind!! :-)) just a day or two before you posted on this topic! - 6:13 PM
- PJ Hoover said...
I think I did read that, Kelly, and I'm about as behind as you (maybe a couple weeks ahead). I should go back and re-read it though.
Thanks for the comment! - 10:24 PM

If you plan on taking Metro this weekend, you'll need to add a little more time to your commute.
The Brookland, Takoma and Silver Spring stations on the Red Line will be closed while Fort Totten -- typically a stop for Red, Yellow and Green Llne trains -- will only serve the Green Line.
Free shuttles will replace trains between the Rhode Island Avenue and Forest Glen stations.
Trains on the Orange, Blue, Yellow and Green lines will operate every 20 minutes. For those using the Yellow Line, service will run from Huntington and stop at Mount Vernon Square. Passengers traveling further will have to use the Green Line to complete their trips.

The spot didn't disappoint and Ben Todds hard work paid off as kiters from around the globe had a blast on the various rails and kickers set out in the bay.

I remember those photos of you two leaving the restaurant the other day when K1 had a foul look on his face and K2 looked as if she was about to cry. Well, now I know why you both had such long faces.
There's a baby in the oven. Or ass. Or wherever K2 plans on carrying your babything. Because Lord knows you are one of the few women out there that could birth an ass baby and have room to spare! This news is so fuxored I don't even know where I should begin, but alas, I shall try.
First, Kanye, I'd like to slap you upside the face for basically quasi-legitimizing the Kardashian brand. Now that you've knocked her up, there's no way of getting around it. You might have to wife the ho! And if your mother was still alive she'd be the first to tell you that no ho turns into a housewife. But not so fast! She's gotta get officially divorced from her first second fake marriage before she can spread her gait down one with you.
And to Kim…
I'd like to congratulate you and your Fallopian tubes for finally making a way when there previously was no way. I guess someone finally let you in on a little secret: the sperm prefers the other tunnel! Your biological clock finally must be ticking loud enough for you to hear it over the flow of urine that has slapped you against the face for so many years. I called this pregnancy thousands of miles away. And astonishingly enough, I could tell from that distance you were in the family way, because you had that certain glow to you…
Or was it that Khroma bullshit you and your sisters peddle to any fool dumb enough to slather K-piss on themselves? Just when I thought you'd almost eeked out that 15th minute of fame, you brought your ASS game and proved me wrong. I will never underestimate that power of your nether-regions ever again.
Let's see. Thrice married and barely in your thirties? At this rate, your ass and titties are gonna be counties away from your residential zip code in no time. And just like the last name you may or may not take soon…why don't you head WEST, since that would lead you to the Pacific Ocean fairly quickly, where'd you'd inevitably drown. Whoops, my bad.

Lynda Bellingham is the epitome of the neglected species, sister under the skin to Barbara Flynn, Deborah Findlay, Paula Wilcox and Janine Duvitski. Most punters probably think of Bellingham as the Oxo Lady (the character lacks even a name), if they think of her at all. That's their loss, not hers. True believers first noticed her in General Hospital in 1972, attracted not only by her skill (she underplays with a twinkle) but by her unfeigned physical warmth; Bellingham's air of wry humour seems inextricably tied to her creamy skin colouring and brunette-going-on-russet hair.
Like all good company, she's someone you wanted to see again, and you did. There she was on The Professionals, The Sweeney and Z Cars, series that gave her little chance to shine, though shine she did, her naturalness speaking volumes amid the macho heroics around her. Bellingham has a priceless in-built reality, the first thing grander leading ladies lose as they totter toward mannerism. She draws empathy by doing her job with the minimum fuss. She's just there - a tactic guaranteed to repel the notice of critics who like to consider themselves 'serious'.
Yet, for devotees, her professionalism is as intoxicating as the headiest perfume, be she winging it on The Pink Medicine Show or bringing a depth of unexpected feeling to a role as thankless as James Herriot's wife in All Creatures Great and Small. How happy we were to see her belatedly elevated to co-star status for LWT's comedy Second Thoughts; happier still to witness her resistance of the cheap laugh, preferring to play her divorcee with a truthfulness other, self-inflated names would do well to copy.

Above & Beyond feat. Zoe Johnston - 'You Got To Go' CD Single
Above & Beyond feat. Zoe Johnston - 'You Got To Go' CD Single
Featuring the distinctive vocals of Zoë Johnston, You Got To Go is the latest single to be taken from Above & Beyond's critically acclaimed second artist album Group Therapy described by Mixmag as the biggest artist album of the year. Following in the footsteps of Above & Beyond's BBC Radio 1 playlisted singles Sun & Moon and Thing Called Love, the optimistic You Got To Go is a song about seizing the moment and taking control of the opportunities in front of you.
Inspired by Kyau & Albert's energised club remix of the original album version, the A&B vs. K&A Radio Edit combines the melodic riff-driven energy of the Kyau & Albert remix with a more radio-focused approach capturing the song's beauty and orchestral touches perfectly. The CD single will also include the Kyau & Albert remix, a new club mix from Above & Beyond, two remixes from legendary UK garage pioneer MJ Cole and an organic tech-house version from upcoming duo Dusky.

The Mars Curiosity rover sent back photos Friday which scientists suggested looked like California's desert. That's silly. The mountains and dust look about right but not even a planet the size of Mars could possibly have as many aliens as there are in California.
USA Today says all nine NASCAR fans who were hit by lightning at Pocono Racetrack are out of the hospital. It had to happen. You knew out of fifty thousand racecar fans there would be nine Democrats with electric cars who'd blame their injuries on lightning.
The U.S. Olympic team battled all weekend with China to see which country brought home the most gold medals. It was very close. China was ahead in gold medals won until the U.S. Olympic team borrowed them all to pay for roads and bridges and education.
Israel's orthodox temples have started selling new glasses to men that blur a woman who's dressed sexy. That's the difference between the religions. Orthodox Muslims beat women with sticks for wearing sexy clothing while Orthodox Jews empower optometrists to put their kids through college.
President Obama said Thursday he wants to nationalize other industries like he did General Motors. They're now subsidizing leases for Cadillacs. It was a stroke of genius to make the back seat a sleeper so that a family of four Californians has a place to live for three hundred a month.
President Obama campaigned in Colorado Thursday where he attacked Republicans for their opposition to wind energy. Birds don't know what to think of Democrats. One minute they're banning development to save their nests, and the next minute they're cutting off their heads with windmills like they'd just refused to give Henry VIII a son.

Diana Werts Bio
Diana Werts is a native Kansan. Beginning in 1971, while studying art at Emporia State University, she found a personal connection to the landscape of her region. Emporia is situated on the edge of the Flint Hills, which are home to the largest intact tall grass prairie in the country. Werts has always credited the Flint Hills as her primary source of inspiration due to the ever-changing prairie grasses, big sky and distant vistas. Her oils and pastels have been featured in regional and national shows over the last 25 years. She has conducted artist residencies across Kansas and Missouri, and more recently at the New Orleans Center for Creative Arts.
Artist Statement:
My paintings celebrate the life cycles of plants and the diversity found within the Midwestern landscape. Energetic brushwork and vivid color come into play as I balance acute observation with abstract elements, and try to compose paintings that bring the intimate and delicate into a bold statement. I want my paintings to resonate with a sense of the seen and unseen in such a way that it prompts the viewer to do the same.
As much as I am moved by the natural beauty present in other parts of the world, I feel most compelled to paint the prairies that I have known intimately all my life. The rich soil, the rootedness of the native grasses, the plant companions that bloom at various times in spring and summer and the insects that visit them remind me of how interconnected we are; I am thrilled to be a part of it! The splendid visual aspect of the prairie combined with the liberating sense of its teaming life prompts me to draw upon my faculties of representation and abstraction to convey the sense of well-being that I find here.
I was born into a family of gardeners, and I find joy and satisfaction in growing plants for the birds, butterflies, bees, and humans; this also gives me a chance to watch life cycles, and to see a way toward better balance in our delicate ecosystem.

Sinningia 'Texas Zebra'S. 'Texas Zebra' is a hybrid created by Dale Martens. It is S. 'California Gold' (an early Martens hybrid) x (eumorpha x striata). Since 'California Gold' has some eumorpha in it, there is quite a bit of eumorpha in 'Texas Zebra', and this shows in the leaves and in the relative openness of the corolla tube. This handsome hybrid has dramatically striped flowers and a compact growth habit. This makes it a good candidate for growing and for further hybridization. |
Hybridization with 'Texas Zebra'I applied pollen from my hybrid S. 'Peninsula Belle' (which is S. lineata x reitzii) to S. 'Texas Zebra' and got a fruit (there is a picture of it). I sowed the seed in January 2006, and some of the seedlings have now bloomed. The top flower in this picture is Sinningia 'Peninsula Belle'. The remaining five are S. 'Texas Zebra' x 'Peninsula Belle'. The second flower (first of the TZ x PB flowers) is very eumorpha-like. It is almost pure white, with only a couple of very faint purple lines on the lobes. It and #3 are also the largest. The stamens, style, and stigma are also the same brilliant white. The third and fourth flowers from the top most resemble S. 'Texas Zebra', with heavy striping on the corolla lobes. The third is about the same size as the pure white flower. Unlike #4, it has a yellow area on the base of the throat, which it presumably inherited from 'Texas Zebra' (and ultimately from S. eumorpha), since 'Peninsula Belle' has no yellow (nor do either of its parents). The style is pale purple, and the stigma is outlined in dark purple, a nice effect, and the only one of these flowers to exhibit that trait. The fifth flower is a pale lavender pink with very faint stripes. The stigma is the same color. The sixth and last flower is almost as large as #2 and #3. There are some distinct but low-contrast stripes on the lower lobes. The filaments (stamen stalks), style, and stigma are all pale violet. One feature that I won't know until next year is flower count. S. 'Peninsula Belle' has reitzii-like peduncles and therefore several flowers per axil. S. 'Texas Zebra' has the eumorpha pattern of (usually) 1-2 flowers per axil. At this writing, the crosses are less than a year old, so the fact that they have mostly one flower per axil can't be taken as a firm indication they can't have more. The white-flowered one has two per axil, so that's a hopeful sign. Because all the ancestors of these plants are rather closely related, it is no surprise that the plants are fertile. A couple have selfed. I will be looking to continue this project with some more crosses. |
Plant Description |
Growth | Indeterminate |
Habit | Erect stem with opposite leaves |
Leaves | Dark green with reddish leaf backs, depending on light |
Dormancy | Stems fully deciduous |
Flowering |
Inflorescence | Axillary cymes, usually (but not always) of just one flower. |
Season | Spring, summer |
Flower | Lavender, striped with dark purple |
Horticultural aspects |
Hardiness | Tuber is hardy to at least 28 F [-2 C]. |
Recommended? | Definitely. Flowers are striking. |
Hybridization |

Was Daniel Boone an Ancestor of Pat Boone?
"Born in Jacksonville, Florida, Pat Boone has said that he is a direct descendant of the American pioneer Daniel Boone.[1] "
That stimulated my curiosity gene, so I decided to find out. No online biography that I found stated the names of Pat Boone's parents, but I figured someone in the Rootsweb WorldConnect database had posted his ancestry. Indeed, a search for "Pat Boone" revealed his parents names were Archie Altman Boone and Margaret Pritchard (not withstanding that Pat Boone is still alive - he's in this database, and probably others!).
Following the links in the WorldConnect data revealed an ancestry for Pat Boone from the famous Daniel Boone (by generation), using several contributed databases to find names, dates and places:
1. Charles Eugene "Pat" Boone -- born 1 June 1934 Jacksonville FL, married Shirley Foley 7 Nov 1953 in Nashville TN.
2. Archie Altman Boone -- born 6 Apr 1906 in FL, died 27 Jan 2000 in Nashville TN, married Margaret Pritchard, born 1910 in FL, died 20 Mar 2000 in Nashville TN.
3. Ernest Eugene Boone -- born Apr 1870 in ID, died 29 Mar 1962 in Nashville TN, married 1892 to Blanche Clanton.
4. Theodore B. Boone -- born 11 Oct 1844 in Kansas City MO, died 2 Nov 1917 in Tulare CA, married 24 Apr 1869 in Brownsville OR to Martha May, born Sep 1853 in IN.
5. Daniel Boone -- born 27 Mar 1809 in St. Charles County MO, married 19 Jan 1832 to Mary Constance Philabert, born 26 Sep 1814 in Maskinonge, Quebec.
6. Daniel Morgan Boone, born 23 Dec 1769 in Rowan County NC, died 13 Jun 1839 in Jackson county MO, married 2 Mar 1800 in St. Louis MO to Sarah Griffin Lewis, born 20 Jan 1786 in Culpepper County VA, died Jun 1850 in Jackson County MO.
7. Daniel Boone -- born 2 Nov 1734 in Berks County PA, died 26 Sep 1820 in St. Charles county MO, married 14 Aug 1756 in Rowan County NC to Rebecca Bryan, born 9 Jan 1738/9, died 18 Mar 1813.
If this line is correct, then Pat Boone IS a descendant of the famous Daniel Boone.
While trying to find more names, dates and places, I searched WorldConnect for most of the purported ancestors of Pat Boone. When I input his claimed grandfather, Ernest Eugene Boone, I got 39 hits (all for the same person) which fell into these groups:
* Ernest Eugene Boone, son of Theodore B. Boone and Martha May, married Blanche Clanton -- there are 16 entries
* Ernest Eugene Boone, son of Theodore B. Boone and Martha Ray, married Blanche Clanton -- there are 8 entries.
* Ernest Eugene Boone, son of Theodore B. Boone and Martha, married Blanch Clanton -- there are 2 entries
* Ernest Eugene Boone, son of Theodore B. Boone and Martha Mauy, no spouse - there is 1 entry.
* Ernest Eugene Boone, son of Theodore W. Boone and Martha Alice Thompson, married Blanch Clanton -- there are 3 entries
* Ernest Eugene Boone, son of Theodore W. Boone and Martha Alice Thompson, married Etta Foy - there are 5 entries
* Ernest Eugene Boone, son of James W. Boone and Blanch Clanton, married to Etta Foy - there are 3 entries.
* Ernest Eugene Boone, no parents listed, no wife listed, - 1 entry.
There are many conflicts in those 39 entries - not the least of which is that there are three potential father's names, four potential mother's names, and two spouse's names for Ernest Eugene Boone.
I decided to search the census records, working backwards from Archie Boone, born in 1906, and Ernest Eugene Boone born around 1870.
* 1930, I can't find an Archie Boone born ca 1906 in FL or TN, or an Ernest Boone, that fits the data. There is an Ernest Boone in Canyon county ID with a wife Edna, but no son Archie boone, and no Archie Boone nearby.
* 1920 -- the family of Ernest E. (age 40, born CA) and Elta (age 40, born KY) Boone had a son Archie, age 13, born in TN, resided in Memphis, Shelby county, TN.
* 1910 -- the family of Ernest E. (age 33, born CA) and Etta (age 22, born KY) Boone had a son Archie (age 4, born TN), resided in Melrose, Curry County, NM.
* 1910 -- the family of Martha (age 56, born TN) resided in Caldwell, Canyon County, ID with several children, but none named Archie (or similar). Theodore W. Boone (age 65, born MO, divorced) resided in Owyhee County ID with no Boone children. A search for other Boone children in Idaho revealed none named Archie.
* 1900 -- Ernest Boone (age 21, born Dec 1878, born CA) resided with his aunt and uncle Wm and Emmi (or Bernice) Robinson, resided in Springfield, Sangamom County, IL.
* 1900 -- the family of Theodore W. (age 55, born Oct 1844 in MO) and Martha (age 46, born Sep 1853 in IN) had a son Ernest D. Boone (age 30, born Apr 1870 in ID), resided in East Caldwell, Canyon County, ID.
* 1880 -- the family of Wm (age 29, born KY) and Blanche (age 24, born KY) Boone had a son Ernest Boone (bage 1, born CA) resided in 7th District, Fresno county, CA.
* 1880 -- the family of Theodore (age 36, born MO) and Martha (age 29, born IN) had a son Earnest Boone (age 10, born ID), resided in Ada County, ID.
I chased these families back to 1850, but it was apparent to me that there were two Ernest Boone's in play here, and one of them had a son Archie and the other did not.
At this time, I checked again the three databases on Rootsweb WorldConnect that said Ernest Eugene Boone's parents were James W. Boone and Blanche Clanton. Almost all of the data in the three databases appear to be from one source - the "Pair Family" database by Elayne Pair Gibbons. An ahnentafel report for Ernest Eugene Boone is at http://wc.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=AHN&db=egibbons&id=I39229. Elayne does not include a son Archie for Ernest Eugene and Etta Lou (Foy) Boone.
However, the "My Family Roots -- ..." database submitted by Craig Snyder references Elayne Gibbons database, and provides an obituary for Ernest Eugene Boone, who died in 1962 in Nashville TN. The obituary is transcribed here, and notes that Ernest's wife was Etta Foy, his son is Archie Boone and his grandson is Pat Boone. This database shows a Living Boone as a child, with 4 Living Boone's as his children.
The third database, titled "Boone, Thompson ..." submitted by Geraldine Ingersoll has no sources and provides the name, birth date, death date and a bit of biography for Archie Altman Boone (see here), gives his wife's name and 4 Living Boone children.
If the data collected by Elayne Pair Gibbons and others is correct, then Pat Boone's patrilineal line is:
1. Charles Eugene "Pat" Boone -- born 1 June 1934 Jacksonville FL, married Shirley Foley 7 Nov 1953 in Nashville TN.
2. Archie Atman Boone -- born 6 Apr 1906 in FL, died 27 Jan 2000 in Nashville TN, married 6 Oct 1932 to Margaret Pritchard, born 1910 in FL, died 20 Mar 2000 in Nashville TN.
3. Ernest Eugene Boone -- born 9 Dec 1878 in CA, died 29 Mar 1962 in Nashville TN, married 25 Dec 1901 in Hickman county KY to Etta Lou Foy, born ca 1880 in KY.
4. William James Boone, born 22 May 1851 in Graves County KY, died 2 May 1904 in Fulton county KY, married before 1875 to Anna Blanche Clanton, born ca 1854 in KY.
5. James Boone, born ca 1810 in TN, died in Graves County KY, married before 1842 to Catherine Latta, born 5 Nov 1813 in Maury County TN, died 22 Nov 1875 in Graves County KY.
6. Bryant Boone, born 15 Dec 1789, died 21 Jan 1837 in Fulton County KY; married Mary, born ca 1788.
7. James Boone (perhaps?) and Mary Hare (perhaps) of Hertford County NC - see Craig Snyder's notes for Bryant Boone's ancestry here.
Even though I don't have a complete set of the sources searched and cited by Elayne Gibbons and Craig Snyder, it is very apparent to me that their research and analysis is probably correct as to Pat Boone's patrilineal ancestry. The databases correlate well to the census data and the obituary for Ernest Eugene Boone. My compliments to Elayne Gibbons for getting it right.
The rest of the databases in the Rootsweb WorldConnect that purport to trace Pat Boone's ancestry back to Daniel Boone are very likely wrong. I notes that the sources cited by some of the erroneous databases were two books:
1. Title: Roots of the Rich and Famous
Author: Robert Davenport
Publication: Dallas, Texas: Taylor Publishing Co., 1998
Repository: Note: Library of Congress, Washington, DC
2. Title: The Boone Family
Author: Hazel Atterbury Spraker
Publication: 1922 (reissued by Genealogical Publishing Company, 1993)Repository: Note: Library of Congress
I have not read these books, so I am not sure that they provide genealogy data from Daniel Boone down to Pat Boone, although I guess that "Roots of the Rich and Famous" probably does.
After about 3 hours of chasing this down using online resources, my conclusion is that:
Pat Boone is NOT a direct descendant of Daniel and Rebecca (Bryan) Boone. However, he may be a relative of Daniel Boone through an earlier Boone ancestor - the records for the correct Boone line don't go back far enough.
Why did I pursue this with such detail and fervor? Read my next post! By the way, this was FUN!

In my research of ancestors in Northern Kentucky and Southern Indiana, Boone is a surname that pops up over and over again. I know that his brother, Squire Boone, settled in Harrison Co., In. and the Squire Boone Cavern tour is a popular place to visit.
There are many active Boone family researchers on the web>Daniel Boone Descendents: http://members.cox.net/treese3/boone/index.htm
Another "Daniel Boone Descendents:
The Boone Society, Inc.:
These are just the first three I came across, I have no doubt there are many more. Every state he ever lived has some kind of homested or battle site. His life wasn't a Disney movie but it certainly was interesting and often tragic.
I'm sure Pat Boone was told while growing up that he was related. How many of us have heard stories about an ancestor by a Grandparent or other family member only to find during research that the family lore is incorrect?

Thanks for sharing! My husband's family claims to be related to Daniel Boone, but I have not been able to prove it. If anything, I've disproven it. Maybe the information you posted (along with avelyn's comment) will help in my research. Thanks!

It doesn't seem to me that Daniel Boone was an ANCESTOR of Pat Boone. However, they probably are cousins. Most of the Kentucky Boones are related, but not necessarily closely related. I am in the same situation. I discovered Daniel Boone to be a cousin. I already knew he wasn't an ancestor, as my ancestors never left North Carolina, although Boone is one of my ancestral surnames. I never expected him to be, and no one told me he was, but he popped up.

Mr. Seaver,
Like you, I tried to trace Pat Boone back to Daniel Boone. You obviously put more effort into it than I did, but I did not find the same names that you listed. I have a different person listed for Pat Boone's grandfather. Could I send you the names that I found to compare?
Thanks, Marion - Monday, March 15, 2010 at 5:53:00 AM PDT
Wow... you did out a lot of effort into this!! Daniel Boone is also a cousin if mine... My grandmother told me and my father and aunt use to go around pretending they were Daniel Boone!!!

My 5th Great Grandfather was Edward Boone, older brother of Daniel Boone, this topic got me interested so I too did some research on the relationship of Pat Boone to Daniel Boone, all my research has either or all records(birth, marriage, census, land)this is what I came up with
Daniel Boone- Rebecca Bryan
Daniel Morgan Boone-12/23/1769
Sarah Griffin Lewis
married 3/2/1800
Daniel Boone-3/27/1809
Mary Constance Philabert
married 1/19/1832
Theodore Warner Boone-10/11/1844
Martha Alice Thompson
Earnest Boone-born Apr. 9th. 1870
Edna Jones
married Sep 20th 1905
Archie Altman Boone-born Apr. 6th. 1906
Margaret V Pritchard
married Aug 6th. 1932
Charles E. Boone (Pat Boone)
Florida State Census, 1867-1945 for the year 1935
A.A. Boone and Margaret Boone and child Charles E. Boone
If this information is correct, then Pat Boone is a 5th Great Grandchild of Daniel Boone, this info I got from the marriage, birth and census records,
just thought I would add my 2 cents worth - Friday, January 14, 2011 at 3:29:00 PM PST
I would just like to draw everybody's attention to an article in the (NC) High Country Press discussing Pat Boone's links to North Carolina. It includes an interview with Trish Boone, the wife of Pat's brother Nick, who says she is a "keen family genealogist." But she can't find the documentation back to Daniel Boone because "an old courthouse in Hertford County burned down." (Where have I heard that one before?)
Of particular interest here though is the first reader comment from a Mary Louise Gossum who says she is Pat's second cousin -- their grandfathers were brothers. She says a DNA test has established that they are NOT descendants of Daniel Boone, but are instead descended through the Isle of Wight, VA Boon(e) family. If this is true, it seems pretty definitive that Pat Boone is not descended from Daniel Boone. I suspect that that relationship is very much a part of his identity though and that he will never admit the truth. - Monday, February 21, 2011 at 6:11:00 PM PST
My fourth great-grandmother is Mary(Boone) Bryan, the sister of Daniel Boone.

T. Adams, Ky."
Double-check your records. The information I have is that Mary Boone, sister to Daniel's brother Squire and Daniel's aunt, was the wife of John Webb. James was one of their sons, and as best evidence shows, was married to a Mary Matthews. You'd still be a Daniel Boone 1st cousin X-times removed, but through a slightly longer route. And we'd be (distant!) cousins, too, me tracing my lineage through John Webb and Mary Boone's son George. - Thursday, November 10, 2011 at 10:43:00 AM PST
- Phoebe said...
@St. Blogwen Terry is right well partly right it was John Webb that married his father's sister not James. It was Daniel's fathers sister Mary that was married to John Webb so Mary would be Daniel's Aunt. The only thing that Terry had wrong was he said James and it was John.
I have a copy of a book by my great-grand uncle Clayton Webb that confirms his grandfathers name was John Webb. - Tuesday, February 7, 2012 at 2:39:00 AM PST

OK guys..... have traced my husbands dna back to Hannah Boone (D's sister), I'd love to see others ! Want to compare ydna?? My hubbie has always been accused of looking like Pat Boone, the resemblance is amazing, when you view the pic of Daniel Boone the family resemblence is huge. The reason for all this research is because husband here is adopted, great fella , just wanted to get some family roots before we get much older :) Lets hear from you.... firstname.lastname@example.com

I am a descendant of a brother of Daniel Boone [Samuel Boone (b. 1728) who married Sarah Day], and a sister of Daniel Boone [Mary Boone (b. 1736) who married Capt. William Bryan]. There is a good book about the Boones called "The Boone Family" by Hazel Atterbury Spraker. However, I have noticed that it does have a few errors in it. There is lots of genealogical information on the Boones at ancestry.com.

Someone was asking about a connection to a royal line. So far, the only royal connection I have been able to find is this. If you are descended from Mary Boone who married William BRYAN, there is a royal connection through her husband: the Bryan line. The following is greatly shortened, but it goes: Bryan - Bourchier - Anne Plantagenet - Thomas of Woodstock Plantagenet - Edward III Plantagenet, King of England.
By the way, the Bryan side is related to the famous William Jennings Bryan, a Congressman who also ran for president and who was a great defender of the Christian faith.
Mary Boone (sister of Daniel) is my 10th GG. Edward III is my 17th GG through the Bryan line.
Sarah A. Bryan Bradley married H M Gibson
Sarah Anne Bryan Bradley was daughter of Sarah Bryan Grimes & Terry J. Bradley, Sr
Sarah Bryan Grimes mar. Terry Joseph Bradley, Sr
Sarah Bryan Grimes was the daughter of James Grimes and Sarah (Sallie) Bryan.
Sarah (Sallie) Bryan was the daughter of Mary Boone and William Bryan.
William Bryan was the son of Morgan Bryan.
Morgan Bryan was the son of Sir Francis Bryan III.
William Smith Bryan
Sir Francis Bryan II
Sir Francis Bryan I, 1490 - 1550 (wore eyepatch)
and so on.
When you get to Sir Francis Bryan I, - not such a good guy, but that is not our fault. A friend of Henry VIII. I guess in any genealogy, you will find people you are not proud of. But Sir Francis Bryan I does trace his genealogy back to royalty, through his mother's side (Lady Margaret Bourchier). Also, she was governess to Henry VIII's children.

Scallion Mashed Potatoes with Buttermilk & Gorgonzola
1-1/2 lbs. red skinned potatoes, scrubbed, skin on
6 scallions, sliced
2 tsp. olive oil
3/4 c. buttermilk
3 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1/4 c. gorgonzola cheese (I used my current obsession, gorgonzola dolce)
Salt & pepper, to taste
In a medium saucepan, cover potatoes with water and cook, covered, over medium heat until a knifepoint can be inserted easily into potatoes (approximately 30 minutes). Drain.
Meanwhile in a separate frying pan, sautee sliced scallions in olive oil until tender.
In a large measuring cup, warm buttermilk and butter approximately 45 seconds, until butter is melted. Add gorgonzola and allow to soften in the warm milk and butter mixture. With a rubber spatula, stir mixture until gorgonzola is well incorporated.
Mash potatoes in a medium bowl. Add scallions, then milk-butter-cheese mixture, little by little, stirring with a rubber spatula until desired consistency (it is possible that some of the milk-butter-cheese mixture will remain). Season with salt and pepper. Serve.
Makes 4 side servings or 2 very indulgent single servings.

Boomer and Juno Boomer and Juno are Paint crosses. They are half siblings - out of the same father; different mamas. Juno is five years old and Boomer is four and a half. Juno is English broke - she jumps, does well on the flat, and is great in equitation classes. Boomer is a Western pleasure horse that is soon to be started on barrels. Juno is a chestnut tobiano and Boomer is all black aside from a white star, two white hooves, and a white belly. They arrived last month. Yesterday I free-lunged Boomer in the round pen. I love his coloring. Juno is a sweetheart; I enjoy slipping her occasional carrots and pats. They are only here for training and I will be sorry to see them go.

94 deville door speaker
Hi, my first post. I have a 94 deville and the driver door speaker is crapping out on me. It get bursts of static/cuts out half the time. I was wondering how hard it would be to replace it, and if there were some good aftermarket options. Thanks.
- Sponsored Links Remove Advertisements
I'm having the same problem. I think once I (very carefully) remove the door panel, it will be as easy as a few screws and skipping a few wires. Leaving enough length on the wires to attach a new speaker of course.

So practically the emulated DOS program can work only inside this "cage" (that's also why is possible to run viruses and malware without problems for the system). Anyway although these limitations exists a very simple way to gain access to the entire real filesystem (so not only the virtual one) because the MOUNT command used by DOSBox for mounting the real folders as virtual drives can be called just by the same emulated program. In short if the program executes system("mount x c:\"); it gains read/write access to the C: disk where is then possible to modify all the files on which the user has access (like for example placing the execution of a program at the next reboot or substituiting a valid executable with a custom one). MOUNT is not the only DOSBox related command available (check the Z: disk) but is the only one which has a real security impact if executed. ####################################################################### =========== 3) The Code =========== http://aluigi.org/poc/dosboxxx.zip ####################################################################### ====== 4) Fix ====== The developers don't think this can be considered a security problem while in my opinion doing something outside the environment created by the virtual machine must be considered a risk. ####################################################################### --- Luigi Auriemma http://aluigi.org [ reply ] |

Okay, okay. Ignore for a moment that the original article comes from Blu-ray.com and it's a few days old. What you ought to pay attention to is the idea that Sony's plot to insert a Blu-ray player into the homes to assist in pushing the new format is working. That was a really long sentence, but it's grammatically... acceptable, right? Should be. Anyway, the week of December 24th, sales of Blu-ray gained a lead over the competing HD-DVD format, despite the notion the porn industry has sided with HD-DVD (Mr. Gates must reeeeally want something to watch, huh?).
This wasn't a miniscule lead -- Blu-ray claims a 20% higher sales mark than the competition. With that in mind, 20th Century Fox estimates Blu-ray to outsell HD-DVD by a ratio of 3.5:1 by the end of the first quarter of 2007 in the US. You've got to remember, in Japan, Blu-ray holds 96% of the market (we're assuming that number is related solely to the two next-gen formats otherwise the adoption rate in Japan is way fast). Good stuff, Blu-ray. Show them that having porn doesn't necessarily equate to success!
