It's very interesting to see that two of your uncle's have Boone as their middle name. Where was Arthur Boone Christison born?

Elizabeth Jane Lewis Christison's great-grandmother was Hannah Boone, the sister of Daniel Boone. That's where the Boone name came from. Arthur Boone, who was called "Boone," was born in Platte City, Missouri. Boone died at Cash Creek at age 11 and it is believed he was struck by lightning.

Very interesting! I stumbled across this site while looking for information on Adam Christison, who is my 4x great-grandfather.
