They were members of the Society of Friends (Quakers) in Callumpton, Devonshiore, from which Meeting they took a letter of recommendation to the Society of Friends in America. Whether they were dissatisfied with their condition as Quakers in England, or whether they were impelled by that desire for adventure and travel which was later so strongly manifested in Daniel Boone and his brothers, will never be known. On the 17th of August, 1717, with six children, George Boone and his wife left the town of Bradnich in Devonshire and went to Bristol, where they set sail for America.[7]
