In 1769, Daniel Boone was shown Kentucky’s flatlands by John Findley – and Boone found the area to be suitable for settlement. Six years later, he moved his family - including 13-year-old Jemima Boone - to the area. Jemima's story reveals the dangers girls and women faced in settling new territory - as well as the lies told to keep white settler culture intact. This is her story.
