There are no existing records to indicate if frontiersman Daniel Boone was a Freemason. However, there is this report from his son Nathan on the occasion of his father's funeral,"Father's body was conveyed to Flanders Callaway's home at Charette, and there the funeral took place. There were no military or Masonic honors, the latter of which he was a member, as there were then but very few in that region of the country." So if his son is to be believed, Daniel Boone was indeed a member of the fraternity.
