Hi, My name is Sharon Wick
I am the Creator of Ohio Genealogy Express, however
I have ties in some counties in Indiana and other states.
I have decided to put my research data online for all others interested
in theses areas to see.

I am not going to do the whole state as I don't have time, however
I will be doing selected counties as I see fit.

This partiular county includes some of my lines
some may be LOVE, MURRAY, FLINN and others.

Thanks for visiting.

BRIEF HISTORY
Boone County 
was formed April 1, 1830, and named for frontiersman Daniel Boone. The county's commissioners originally selected Jamestown (on the county's southern border) to be the seat, but a law passed January 26, 1832 forced it to be moved to within two miles (3 km) of the county's center. A new site was chosen in May 1831. Named Lebanon, it became the county seat in 1833.
