He married Wh-1-1-4-3-4-6-5 Mary Wightman on 6 Dec 1737. .Samuel went to New Brunswick with his two son's Samuel Jr and William on the ship Union landing April 16th 1783 at Site 1 Kingston, Kings County, New Brunswick. This is according to the Loyalist arrival records. Also it is recorded that William was accompanied by his wife and children and that Samuel Jr left his family behind in Rhode Island.
More information: Records, which were badly damaged by fire at Wickford, RI indicate that Samuel was chosen Lieutenant of the 3rd Kingston Company of Militia and the next year became Captain of this company. At the February 1778 session of the State Assembly, a resolution was passed that, Samuel Boone, William Boone, and others, having joined the enemy, the Sheriff of the County of Kings County forthwith take possession of their real and personal estate in behalf of the State. In March of 1778 the Sheriff was ordered to sell the personal estate of Samuel Boone (and other). In June 1700 records from five farms were seized by the State, their owners having gone over to the enemy, be pledged and funded for the credit and redemption of taxes assessed of 5000 pounds. Samurl's farm was shown as about 600 acres of Exeter. It was further enacted that these farms be sold on or before December 1, 1780, money which was to be paid in gold or silver and not currency; same to be lodged in the Treasurery and any over 5000 pounds to be at the disposal of the General Assembly.
Other records indicate the farm was leased to a Michael Dawley for 91 pounds; also that Richard Fry Esq., be empowered to receive of Mrs. Micahel Dawley, the mutton of 14 in lieu of so much beef, in part rent to the State's Farm late belonging to Samuel Boone. Subsequent records indicate that Samuel may have had two farms, one in Exeter, known as Black Plain, and one in North Kingston. February 1784 records show a report of a committee appointed to enquire into circumstances of the encumbrances which are on the estates late belonging to Samuel Boone which are under mortgage to Stuckeley Westcott of upwards of 2600 pounds. The committee concluded that said Stuckeley Westcott convey his right in the said farm in Exeter to the State, that then the fee simple for the said farm in North Kingston be conveyed by the General Treasurer in behalf of the State to Stuckeley Westcott. This report was acted upon and passed by the State.
July 1780 records show an act was passed to prevent persons listed, including Samuel Boone, being admitted in the State. If apprehended, will be committed to jail and transported to some place in the dominion or possession of the forces of Great Britian.

Stevens pedigree chart 8/91; b. & d. dates/places Lloyd Boone Pedigree Chart 9/91.; same dates & places). The following from Lloyd Boone's notes:
Willian and Ruth, along with six children, landed in Saint John, New Brunswick on April 16, 1783 on the ship "Union". They settled around Gagetwon (Swan Creek) but shortly after, moved to the north branch of the Oromocto River between the present village of Fredericton Junction and Tracy. William did not like the land there and moved to Burtt's Corner on the Keswick River with the younger members of his family. He applied for and received a Loyalist Land Grant of some 868 acres and built his first home. The property was later owned by Thomas Fowler and stood just behind the residence of Charles Inch. Records show that William was living there in 1797 when he gave his son Henry, Power of Attorney, to deal with his father's Samuel estate. There is a stone in the cemetery at Burtt's Corner with this inscription, "In Memory of William Boone, native of Co Kingston, RI. Died Apr 28, 1829 age 85 also his wife Ruth died May 14, 1833 age 89".(my notes)William's brother Samuel Jr. and his father Samuel Sr. who in May 1745 was appointed Lieutenant of the 3rd No. Kingstown, were reported to have arrived on the same ship. Samuel Jr. was travelling alone having left his family behind in Rhode Island.
Ruth's farther was Captain Ebenezer Hill. who was born 1703 in Providence R.I and died on October 31,1753 and is buried in the Old Church Cemetery, St Eustatius, in the Caribbean Islands. Ruth's mother was Mary Fones who was born in 1705. Ruth Hill Boone was in Boston during the time of the Boston Tea Party and used to recount stories of the trying times that was had during that period of history.
