In the year 1818 he moved with his father's family from Kentucky to Loutre Island, in what is now Montgomery County, Mo., where his father, William C. Boone, engaged in mercantile business. Young Hampton Boone assisted his father for about two years. Meanwhile he began the study of law, but later gave up the idea of entering that profession. He gave much thought to religious matters, and having joined the church in 1828, he entered the ministry of the Methodist Episcopal Church, in which he continued as a local preacher until 1840. Having studied closely the religious tenets of the different denominations, his convictions led him to sever his relations with the Methodist Church and become a minister of the Christian Curch, in which denomination he continued for the remainder of his life.
At that time and in new frontier countries, it was necessary for ministers of the gospel to seek additional means of providing for their own support. Hence we find Hampton L. Boone alternating between the pulpit and secular employment, and often doing service in both for years at a time. At one time when a young man he was employed as clerk under Capt. Whitmore, the Government agent appointed to make certain payments to the Indians. While thus employed he made several trips up and down the river.
About 1832 he went to Fayette, Mo., and a year afterwards entered the mercantile business at that place, which he engaged in until 1840. Meanwhile he was appointed registrar of the land office at Old Franklin and later at Fayette, which position he held for about twelve years, and until the inauguration of President Harrison in 1841. In 1842 he was appointed clerk of the supreme court at Jefferson City, to which city he removed his family in 1844. He was clerk of the supreme court for about six years. For several years during his official term in Jefferson City, he was editor of the "Metropolitan," a Democratic newspaper which under his editorship was the first paper in the state to take a stand against Thomas H. Benton.
The winter of 1849-50 he spent in St. Louis, but on account of failing health he returned to his old home, Fayette, in March 1850, resuming work in the Christian Ministry, until his death in 1851. Notwithstanding he led an active business life, he never lost sight of his duties as a minister, and his life and business relations followed the high principles which he preached from the pulpit.
