I remember that song on TV as a kid in the 60s ........ "Daniel Boone was a man, he was a big man, fought for america to all americans free." British lost the war in 1780 around these parts ..... glad to be here. Boone had an out post and little cave right near my subdivision over here in south Johnson city .... near Buffaloe Mountain .... we got a little cemetery here in Garland subdivision with some old patriot graves from the revolution .... warms my heart to be living here .....

@@realappalachia I watch the show weekly on METV.

My husband said that his family is related down the line to Rebecca, Daniel Boone’s wife. I love old cabins. Thanks for sharing.

Amazing how old this cabin is and still looks sturdy !!

Yes, it’s definitely been fortified over time. Looks better than most new ones

My 4x's great grandfather traveled with Daniel Boone from Kingsport to Boonesborough. His name was memorialized on the monument at the Boonesborough park. Also, in Scott County Virginia near Gate City there is a creek called Big Moccasin. The story goes that the Boone party traveled through on their way to Kentucky, found moccasin prints on the creek bank and named the creek.

Nice cabin. I didn’t know it was even there. Next time I head that way I’m gonna check it out. I remember the song also, still sing it sometimes even now. ❤

Thanks for the video. I originally thought that you meant that Daniel Boone lived in Kingsport and the cabin was still standing. He had several places he "lived" in the area, but mostly over in Ft Blackmore, VA area. You mentioned Duffield, that would have been right for Daniel.

make it an AirBnB.... Smart of ol' Daniel to locate next to the freeway.... I live in Boone where his annual gathering of hunters & trappers met up on Rich Mountain as the winter approached ....its called Meat Camp Road.....y'all come!

Now Meat Camp Road sounds like a good spot

Neat find!!! I lived in BOONE, NC for 10 years. Lots of "Boone" stuff there and in "Meat Camp". At 3:25 in the video you stated that, "1973 to 1975 Daniel and Rebecca lived here." Did you mean to say 1773 to 1775? And did they live "here" then... or did they live in Duffield then? Or did you just mean that they lived in "this cabin then"? Thanks for the little tour.

You should take a road trip to Berks County PA to visit the Daniel Boone homestead.

I always do love your videos Shane and melody

Thank you for sharing, so nice to see your new wee one as well!

Kingsport is my hometown. I passed that cabin many times, thinking it was just part of the Netherland Inn. Didn’t know it was Daniel Boone’s birthplace. Thanks.

Daniel Boone was born in Pennsylvania to Quaker parents. He traveled down to NC to marry Rebecca and then they were off to Kentucky through the Gap and then after that to Missouri where his final home (made of rock) still stands today.

3:20 - Daniel Boone was still alive in 1975!?!?!? Woah!!!! :)

Well now this IS an amazing find. I lived in Kingsport all my life until 1989 when I moved to Knoxville. I know where the Inn is as I was raised on the Long Island, across the Holston from it. I am sure I saw it many times as I drove pass the netherland Inn and thot it was just part of the Inn. Fantastic find! Thank you!

Loved Daniel Boone.

Thank you for sharing this. What documentation is there that this was actually a cabin of Daniel and Rebecca Boone? I could not understand where you said it was moved from.

Daniel Boone cabin/moved from Duffield, Virginia.

Shane do you know when this cabin was built... If you mentioned it in your video, I missed it.. Thx for sharing, take care and God Bless...

It was in use between 1773-1775 so I would imagine just before 1773

Interesting, I am not finding the cabin with googling. Please add wiki link and location. And 1973 through 1975 Daniel? 1773-1775?

Type in Netherland Inn Museum in Google maps should get you there.

Who verified the cabin as Daniel Boones?

I suspect that Fess Parker and Ed Ames are inside.

It looks to be in pretty good shape. I think the side you tried to look through the window, had a few spots that nedeed some chinking. Thanks for the video.
