Best Answer

According to the Wiki:

Boone County was formed from the eastern portion of Carroll County. Contrary to popular belief, it was not named for Daniel Boone. Its original name was Boon, so named because the residents believed it would be a "boon" to all who settled there. The final e was added later.
