Actually, old Sam Coburn entered Kentucky with Dr. Thomas Walker's party.They met Boone's party on the trail and joined forces.That was a good decision as they were attacked by Indians two days later, losing two of their party to the hostiles.Sam's daughter, Carrie, married Capt. James Harrod after her first husband was killed by Indians.Her son by her first marriage was, also, captured by Indians and burned alive at the age of 15.Harrod disappeared on a hunting trip and his fate is still a mystery.
