Tour DANIEL
BOONE'S MISSOURI HOME 
At the Daniel Boone Home you'll see flint lock
"Long Rifles", a butter churn and sewing basket, along
with a writing desk and the family heirloom are waiting for your
inspection as you tour this fine museum. Here, where Daniel Boone
lived and died you can find many items to please your entire family.
A wide panorama of colonial early Americana is displayed in the
Daniel Boone Home.
THE GREAT FIREPLACE - The huge stone fireplace in the dining room of
the Daniel Boone Home where a long rifle and powder horn still
hangs over it, just as it was in the days when Daniel and his
family gathered here for happy hours.
DRAWING ROOM - In
this room, Daniel sat for his famous portrait painted by artist
Chester Harding in l8l9.
THE JUDGMENT TREE -
As it stood in 1973... Daniel conducted
his court to settle disputes between white men and Indians of
the valley, using truth rather than man-made laws to arrive at
just decisions.
Sadly, this great tree died of Dutch elm disease
some years ago, but the remains are still preserved.
SEE
WHERE DANIEL BOONE DIED - Visit the
small bed chamber next to the north entrance to the house that
is furnished as it may have been when the great scout died there
after a short illness on September 26, 1820. Here is a historic
spot you won't want to miss.
Special thanks to Lindenwood University as well as Mrs. Sumner's
4th Grade Class in Sullivan, Missouri, for some additional photos.
