We have sources that name Celia Boon to be the wife of Francis Cogdell but there was another Celia Boone who married John Wheeler who was the daughter of Thomas Boone and Alice Winborne. From the book, "Thomas Boon Immigrant and 1,000 of his descendents", we learn from Mr. C. Wilson Buck who says: "Evidently, there were three Thomasas in Northampton at the same time, mine (will, 1796) and two others" If there were two other Thomas's then there were probably several Boon families in the area at the time. We just need to do some research to find out which Boon family Celia who married Francis Cogdell came from. Was the mother of Mary Cogdell named Celia Boon or Selah? Follow the link below to the Bible Record to find out.

There is a Hood Bible Record that names the parents of Mary Cogdell to be Francis Cogdell and SELAH. This record also gives a good source for the birth and parents of Bold Robin. It can be found at this link
