Elizabeth Lydia Boone was a daughter of David Ewing Boone, Sr. and Sarah Lurena Taylor, both originally of Jackson County, Missouri, but having migrated along with many other extended family members and neighbors, to what was called the "Magic Circle" area of Greenwood and Woodson counties of Kansas.
Elizabeth had been honored with the name of her grandmother Lydia Taylor, who along with Elizabeth's mother Sarah Lurena and other aunts and extended family members, were arrested by Union soldiers, sent from the area until after the war, with their homes burned and some family members never being heard from again. Most believed the mistreatment of the women and children to be a ploy of the Union Army to "smoke out" suspected rebel men of their families - some registered Confederate soldiers and others thought to be "hiding in the bush", otherwise known as Bushwhackers.
As any true historian knows, history is written by the victors, so any actions taken on either side won't be accurately described at this late date. The families learned to only trust each other, to sacrifice what you can for family, and to speak in whispers of wrongs committed by the people in power.
The group first migrated to the Linn County area which seemed to go seamlessly between Missouri and Kansas. A now obsolete community of Lincoln, KS is often referred to, with administrative documents being filed in Bates County, Missouri. They then moved on to the last outcropping of what had been the Ozarks and pretty wooded areas and rolling hills that were the secret beauty of eastern Kansas.
On September 3, 1886 Elizabeth Lydia Boone was married to Ambrose R. Stewart in Greenwood County, Kansas. He was a son of Joel Franklin Stewart and Adeline Greaves.
