Exeter is renowned as the birthplace of famed American explorer and hunter, Daniel Boone (1734-1820). The Boone homestead (actually, an historically-accurate recreation of the real Boone homestead, about 2 miles north of Birdsboro), where Daniel spent the first 16 years of his life, is today a national historic site. The property was entered onto the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.
