The High Cumberland is a 2-part episode from Season 2 (1965-'66) revolving around Daniel Boone's early years on the new frontier and how he met his future wife Rebecca, and friend Mingo, the Oxford-educated son of an English father and Cherokee mother. His early explorations of Kentucky, the courtship of Rebecca Bryan, and schemes by unscrupulous merchants to steal precious supplies for the Kentucky settlement are all part of this great adventure.
