About Joab Barton

Captured and raised by the Shawnee Indians after his father and brother Jacob were killed.

From http://www.hardylaw.net/Bogard.html:

Joab was raised as a Shawnee, and only discovered his background when Daniel Boone encountered him, noticed that this warrior bore a remarkable resemblance to his long-dead friend Joshua Barton, and pieced together his background.(Joab remarked that at last he knew why the Shawnee let him fight other tribes but always found a reason why he could not go on raids against the white settlers.)
