Family History on Ancestors of Iris Wood Dalton

This book includes historical information on thirty ancestors of Iris Wood Dalton; including dates, places lived, occupations, pictures (where available), LDS information. Pedigree Sheets, Family Group Sheets, and a brief biography of each.

I have included a list of pioneers that crossed the plains to Utah between 1847 and 1869. This list also includes baptism dates for these early members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Also included is information on where each person is buried, with pictures (where available) of their grave sites.

Family names include: Wood, Cripps, Webb, Wright, Russell, Badcock, Milgate, Angell, Botsford, Hepburn, Jackens, Jackson, Johncock, Reader, Dad man. and Young.. There are five generations represented in these histories.

Iris comes from a line of noble men and women including such ancestors as Mary Chilton and John Winslow (original Mayflower passengers), George Morton (Pilgrim father, a Puritan arriving in America in 1623); Thomas Angell (cousin and co-founder with Roger Williams of Rhode Island), William Hepburn Russell (Co-founder of the Pony Express); and Solomon Angell (member of the First Quorum 70s of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints); to name a few. Iris' ancestry came mainly from England, and included nobility stemming from the Plantagenet line.

The later generations all resided and/or were bom in Utah, and were members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The average age at death of all men in the five generations included is 61 years; the average age of death of all women in the five generations is 73 years.

The Pedigree Chart at the beginning of the histories is the key to the numbering system used to identify each ancestor. On it each person is assigned a number. That number will correlate with the individual history; i.e., Iris Wood is W-l, her father - Jewett Wood is W-2, her mother - Eva Alvira Cripps is W-3, etc.

Diligent research has been done to obtain records and histories through books, genealogies, family histories, the internet, Family Search, and Ancestry. I have made an earnest attempt to use correct information; however, I am sure there are errors, and new information can and will be added. I am grateful for the assistance of my faithful companion, John A. Hart, for his tireless help.

I am honored to be a descendant from such worthy, noble progenitors. I have come to appreciate their courage, character and commitment. Compiling this book has given me an even greater desire to leave a legacy of faith, as they did, to my loved ones.

Comments: Iris was the second of ten children raised just before and during the Great Depression, and her family was poor. Despite these early hardships, Iris always tried to improve herself and her surroundings - especially her home and gardens, which she maintained beautifully. At just eighteen she married Lewis Dalton, a marriage that lasted 57 years, at which time Lewis passed away. They had two children, Shauna and eleven years later, Pam. Her family has always been the most important thing in her life. Iris worked hard at the jobs she held and always advanced in her numerous occupations. In her later years she was active in the LDS Church, holding many responsible callings. Lewis was somewhat of a wanderer, and they moved a great deal throughout their marriage; finally settling in Parowan, Utah in 1960. In 2005, nine years after Lewis' death. Iris sold the Parowan home and moved to Washington, Utah. She lived in one of the most interesting times In history — from the beginning of the automobile to flights to the moon. A dedicated wife and mother, a lover of beauty, and an independent woman; she will be remembered as one who loved life.

Brief History of Iris Wood

Iris was bom at home in Kanarra, Utah. She weighed 12 lbs. 2 oz - a very big baby, especially for her five foot Mother! She was the second child of Jewett and Eva Alvira [Cripps] Wood. The oldest child, Ila was just 21 months older than Iris and eight more children followed her birth - all about two years apart. One of them, Delia Jean, was killed in 1941 after falling off a horse when she was seven years old.

The family didn't have much money and was considered 'poor' even in times of the Great Depression. From the autobiography Iris wrote of her youth, we read of a small two-room home - a kitchen and the 'other' room with a double bed in all four comers of the room, sleeping two or three in each bed; ''''torn curtains, no closets, only nails on the back of the doors to hang our clothes if we were lucky enough to have more than one set of clothing." Iris relates how she tried to look nice. "I would come home from school and wash my dress so it would be clean for the next day of school. One time I hung my dress on a chair by the heater to dry and the children were running around and by accident pushed it against the stove and burned a big hole in it. My only dress was ruined. I had to miss school for two days until Mama could get the material and get me one made."

They didn't have running water, in fact the children had to carry water in large buckets over two fences from a stream a block away. Baths came only once a week - all using the same bath water, just adding a little more water after each person had bathed. They did laundry outside over a fire in a big tub using a scrubbing board - after making their own soap. The toilets were outhouses, with Sears catalog pages for toilet paper. Their lighting came from coal oil lamps. Her father, Jewett, worked hard but he was a farmer and times were very difficult. After they moved to town they had piped in water - not on the inside, but outside.

Eva, her mother, was always pregnant or nursing and much of the responsibility of housekeeping and child rearing fell to Ila and Iris as the two oldest children. They lived on the outskirts of town and twice floods washed down from the foothills and ran through their home. Jewett finally moved his family into town. Each summer Eva and the children and Jewett's mother, Eliza, would go to some property Grandmother Eliza owned in the mountains. They made cheese and fattened the cows, pigs and other animals on the green grass. The children were free most of the time to play and climb in the mountains - usually on their own with no supervision nor it appears - worry. Iris said her mother was very easy-going and never criticized or nagged.

m spite of the hardships, the family enjoyed the freedom of that period of history and the atmosphere of a small town. They enjoyed ice cream occasionally, playing in the bam, going to the local store and blacksmith, movies (for 5 cents), and activities in town. Iris loved to run and on the 4th and 24th of July she ran in competitions. She always won, never loosing a race. She eventually broke her leg doing the splits and never raced after that. She also had a serious injury when she was running in a bam and slipped and hit a hay fork. It hit her above her mouth and ripped it open. Her father found someone with a car and took her to Cedar City to a doctor who sewed it up with such skill that a scar was barely visible.

Grandfather Wood and Grandfather Cripps both died before Iris was bom, but she lived close to her Grandmother Wood in Kanarra and spent time with her often. She died in 1937. Grandmother Cripps lived in Hurricane - about 60 miles south of Kanarra. The family went down in a horse and buggy about twice a year. Her Grandma Cripps had a small two room house, but it had nice things and beautiful gardens with flowers and blossoming trees that Iris loved and appreciated even in her youth. This Grandma lived to be 93 years old, and passed away in 1955.

Iris loved school and always tried to excel in her studies. When she advanced into the 9th grade she went to California to live with her Aunt Sarah to continue her schooling instead of going to Cedar City. She worked for three hours after school cleaning homes. Her father wanted her to come home, which she did.

reluctantly, in the middle of the year. Thus, the 9th grade was the last grade she attended.

After returning to Utah, Iris moved to Cedar City to work and live with her sister, Ila. Again she cleaned houses, did cooking, tended children and did laundry for others - particularly local doctors, for a couple of years. She often gave part of her earnings to her parents to help them financially. When she was 17 years old she met Joseph Lewis Dalton. It must have been love at first sight for both of them, because after two dates Lewis asked her to marry him - she thought he was kidding. He then left to go sheep shearing for the Spring/Summer and Iris continued dating and dancing other young men. When Lewis came back they saw each other a couple of times and then he came to see her on September 9, 1939; and said, "If you love me as much as you say you do, you will go with me right now and we will get married". As Iris later said, "I was shocked to say the least, but most certainly the answer was 'yes'. " They had to get permission from his parents and so drove to Parowan. Lewis' father was in the mountains working, so he asked his mother. Her reply was, "Lewis Dalton, are you in your right mind? " Both of them were just 18 years old, neither had graduated from High School, Lewis had no job and Iris quit hers, and they had to live with his parents for several months! Maybe her comment was understandable. They married in the Parowan Courthouse that afternoon and then drove to Kanarra to tell Iris' family "who accepted it very calmly as if it was an everyday occurrence".

The young couple moved in with Lewis' parents in a two room log house. "We slept in the front room on the couch, and all the family slept in one big room out from the house" - his family included his parents plus five other children. After a few months Lewis got a job working on the WPA on Cedar mountain for $49.00 a month, so they were able to rent an apartment and bought "on time" a new wood cook stove, table and chairs, bed and dresser, and a crib. Yes, a crib. Iris got pregnant immediately, and nine months after they were married (June 18,1940) they had a daughter, Shauna. Iris took castor oil to speed the delivery along so that Lewis could be with her when the baby was bom. He drove Iris to Cedar City to the hospital and Shauna was bom there.

Although the depression was over, jobs were still hard to get and keep. And, Lewis seemed to like to try new jobs and new places to live - often. In fact, during Iris' lifetime she lived in over 35 different houses! Perhaps the job at the WPA ended, but by 1941 the little family moved to Pioche, Nevada. Lewis didn't get work immediately, but Iris was able to work as a waitress in one of the casino-restaurants. Lewis and his cousin's wife, Lois Barton, tended Shauna while Iris worked. She did pretty well with tips and wages. They continued to move from one place to another with various types of employment for Lewis: sheep shearing, sheep herding, salesman, ranch help, dry cleaning, aircraft assembly, etc. Iris and Shauna always followed wherever he went.

In 1941 Japan attacked the US military bases in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Soon all young men were on a draft basis, and before long most were called up to serve in the Armed Forces. In order not to be drafted into the Army, Lewis enlisted in the US Navy in February of 1945. He was sent to California for boot camp and then was assigned there after he graduated. He became a Platoon Commander in May 1945 in San Diego. They later moved from San Diego to Ventura to El Centre, California. 'They' consisted of Lewis, Iris and Shauna. At each location Iris found housing and employment. She usually took care of the house and did cooking and laundry in return for room and board. They lived with, and Iris worked for, some very nice people that helped make a difficult time easier.

When Shauna was five years old she contracted rheumatic fever. The landlady knew immediately what the problem was and they mshed her to the Military Hospital in San Diego. Shauna was a Mama's girl and didn't want her to leave. Iris, said it about broke her heart to have to leave her sick child alone, but each day the landlady would take her, and sometimes Lewis, to the hospital to visit. The platoon that Lewis was over brought a huge stuffed animal to their Commander's little girl. Fortunately because of quick action and good care, Shauna recovered from the disease.

The war ended and Lewis received an honorable discharge 12 Jan 1946. They returned to Parowan, as they often had and would in the future. The family stayed there until late 1946 when they moved to Hurricane, Utah. Meeks and Zilpha Dalton, Lewis' parents had bought a cafe and boarding home in Hurricane and needed help. Both families lived in a small basement under the cafe for a few months, with Lewis and Iris helping with the cooking, serving and cleanup. The business was not successful and Lewis' parents moved back to Parowan with their youngest daughter, Diane. Edward, the youngest son, stayed on in Hurricane to live with Lewis and Iris for a few years. Lewis and Iris helped his parents retain their house in Parowan by paying the mortgage for awhile.

Lewis got a job managing a Firestone/Texaco store in Hurricane, and Iris went to work as the bookkeeper and buyer for the store. They prospered and were able to have a new home built from Iris' building plans. It was a cute, two-bedroom home made of brick. They bought a new 1949 lime-green Ford convertible! They also became interested at this time in the LDS Church. Neither had been active in their youth, but good people tried to activate them with a little success. Shauna would go to the store after school and play 'office', or stay at home and read or play with friends. The owner of the Firestone/Texaco store decided to sell the business and Lewis didn't like the new owners, so he quit and the family moved to Cedar City.

About this time, Ms' sister, Shirley, became pregnant. She was unwed and couldn't keep the baby. Iris had had numerous miscarriages and she and Lewis wanted more children. Shirley asked if they would like to adopt the baby, and they were delighted - so was Shauna. On March 2,1951, another daughter came into their lives - Pamela Dalton. She was an absolute delight and added great joy to her parents and sister. They had moved to Parowan by the time Pam came home from the hospital in California. Both Lewis and Iris worked at the Co-Op Store - Lewis as Manager and Iris as bookkeeper; Shauna tended Pam after school and on Saturdays.

The four of them lived in Parowan for a short time and then moved to Norwalk, California where they bought a new 'tract' home. It was very nice with hardwood floors, tile counters, a bay window and a large yard. But the best thing about the home was that it was next door to some Mormons. They invited the family to attend Church, and slowly they all started to become active. In 1955 they went to the Temple in St. George, Utah; where Lewis and Iris received their endowments, were sealed to each other, and had Shauna and Pam sealed to them. A joyous day with eternal consequences.

Once again Parowan called to Lewis and the family moved back there. They purchased a cute, older home at 257 W. Center Street, with a large lot full of trees and an old bam; and tried to make a living there. But, the income just wasn't enough and so in 1956 after living in Parowan for only six months, they moved back to California. To Norwalk again, but this time to a smaller home. Lewis went to work for McMahan's Furniture as a Salesman and before long was made a Manager. Iris obtained employment at General Telephone. She started out in Accounts but was then asked to go to the Public Office as a Supervisor. She always dressed very well and had a pleasant way with people and so was a natural for dealing with the public. They both enjoyed their jobs and excelled at them.

Shauna attended High School with her former friends in Santa Fe - about five miles from their home; which required getting her there each morning and evening. Pam was tended by her Aunt Ila near Shauna's school, so both were picked up or taken together until Shauna started riding with her boyfriend, Eddie Sparkman. Shauna became engaged to him and they were married in November 1959. Shauna and Eddie bought a home in Downey, a town close by.

Lewis' parents came down and helped with the wedding. However, shortly after Zilpha returned to Parowan, she passed away. After Lewis's mother died, he felt he needed to return to Parowan to allow his Dad to live with them. So, much to Iris's dismay, they moved once again back to Parowan in 1960. Iris hated to move away from her oldest daughter and to quit her job, and they both knew finances would be much tighter.

Lewis obtained employment at Northeast Furniture; Iris had to get a job as a car hop for awhile to make ends meet. She then worked at JC Penny's as a Saleswoman, and did so well she won a divisional prize of a fur coat. She was soon promoted to Buyer of women's clothing; A year or so later, she was hired by State Bank over new accounts. She worked there for about five years, at which time she retired. ,

Pam spent her teenage years growing up in the little town of Parowan. They had chickens and a pig and Pam even had a horse. Lewis and Iris had the home remodeled and Iris began creating beautiful gardens, they were active in Church, and other organizations; and Iris eventually became more comfortable with living in Parowan. Shauna came back often and they visited her in California. In 1964 Shauna had a little girl, A'Lissa; and Iris drove all night to get to California to help Shauna and A'Lissa. Pam married George Haley in January 25,1969, in the St. George Temple; and after living in Arizona while George finished college, they moved to Parowan to live. However, George was soon in the Army and they moved to Maryland -taking their two small children with them. Two more followed making a family of four children - Jennifer, Jeremy, Jared and then Jacob.

Iris held very responsible callings in the LDS Church. She was Primary President for several years. Young Women's President, Relief Society teacher and then Relief Society President; plus numerous other callings of trust. She always magnified her callings and those she worked with loved her dearly. Lewis also had callings in the Bishopric and as a teacher. Iris loved antiques and they began to dig for old bottles, traveling to several old ghost towns to look for them.

As with all families, they had their challenges. Lewis had continuing health problems which the doctors could not diagnose. Iris also had some health problems. She had breast tumors removed, a hysterectomy earlier, a Melanoma from her arm, and other health issues. Shauna got divorced in 1985, and Pam and George were unemployed for awhile and needed financial help from Lewis and Iris. But there were many happy times.

Iris loved to travel and she accompanied Shauna and A'Lissa, and later Shauna and John to numerous places around the world. Their first trip was to Europe and they visited France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Belgium and Holland. This trip was followed by others to Sweden, Denmark, Italy, England (several times), Spain, Canada, Mexico, and later to China and Korea. They were fun times together and created happy memories.

About 1978 Shauna and A'Lissa started going to Church and became very active. After an unhappy marriage to Eddie, Shauna obtained a divorce and in 1985 Shauna married John Hart in the St. George Temple where all of the immediate and ancestral family had been sealed. Shauna continued working until 1993 when she retired and she and John moved to Salt Lake City. Pam and George had moved to St. George after his military service. The grandchildren began to get married, and divorced in some cases, and to have children of their own. Iris loved her grandchildren and great-grandchildren and has always been giving and caring towards them. Her family is her greatest delight.

In 1997, at the age of 77, Lewis passed away from liver cancer. Iris was the epitome of loving service to him during his final stages of his life. She cared for him with patience and love. He died in the Veteran's Hospital in Salt Lake City and was then transported to his beloved Parowan where the funeral was held and where he is buried. Iris kept up the large home and gardens all by herself for nine years. People from all over would stop to look at the beauty she grew - and were always amazed when they discovered she did it all alone. But eventually, it became too much work - and that coupled with the harsh winters and care of the 100 year old home, caused her to sell the home they had owned for over 47 years. She bought a lovely home with a fantastic view of the red hills in Southern Utah in Washington. Again she busied herself in transforming the yard into a thing of beauty.

Iris always had dear friends that she enjoyed throughout her life. Ruth Alrick from California, whom she met at General Telephone, Betty and Becky, who were her Counselors in Relief Society; and Elna Stubbs and friend of over 50 years. She was a good influence on many of the young women and for that matter older women in Parowan.

This biography is written in 2007 and Iris is 86 years old - or young as we should say in her case. She continues to be self reliant and independent, maintains her home and yard by herself, looks young for her age, is bright and able, and is an amazement to all who know and love her.

Brief History of Jewett WOOD

Jewett was bom to Henry Elisha Wood and Martha Eliza Badcock in 1890 in Kanarra, Utah. He was the third of five children. His father was 67 years old and his mother almost 40 when he was bom. Eliza was a convert to the Church and had immigrated from England when she was 19 years old. She married Lemuel Merrill Willis in 1872 and had five children by him. He was quite well-to-do, having a farm, sheep, and mountain property. He died when he was 39 and she was 28 years old.

Jewett's mother married his father, Henry Elisha Wood, in 1883 when she was 32. Jewett's father died in 1910 when Jewett was 20 years old, leaving Eliza and her family to tend to the farm they owned. Jewett had an older brother and a sister (the eldest), as well as a younger brother and sister. He must have felt a sense of responsibility, even though the four (one died young) Willis children (step-brothers and sisters) also had rights to the property.

In some ways, the family lived well - for that day-and-age - at least for a few years. Every summer Jewett's family would go to some property his mother owned in the local mountains to make cheese and allow the animals to graze. Years later, a loan was taken out by Lemuel Willis (Jewett's stepbrother). He borrowed against the property - which the family then lost during the depression. Thus the entire family became poor. Jewett would shear sheep in the springtime, plus work as a field hand for food for the family.

Jewett went into the military during World War I, returning in June of 1918. Shortly thereafter, (January 1919) he married Eva Alvira Cripps, who was living in Cedar City, Utah. He courted her, driving to Cedar City once with a pair of beautiful horses and a buggy - which impressed her. She was ten years younger than him; he being 28 and she almost 18. Jewett was 5' 10" tall, Eva was about 4' 10".

They continued to live in Kanarra, where he was a farmer and did other jobs. He had difficult times, especially during the Depression. He and Eva had ten children, bom between 1919 and 1939. One child, Delia, was drug to death by a horse when she was only five years old. The family suffered from floods two different times, and a fire burned down their home about 1939.

From some Memoirs written by Betsy Ross Schultz, a niece; we learn some insight about the home of Jewett and his family. "Visits with Aunt Eva and Uncle Jewett were special. Looking back and thinking of the earth floor, the care with clothes and food, the long hours of work, I know they were poor in those days. But we never thought of that. When we were there, we were treated with such love and as so much apart of their family that when Dad came back with Uncle Jewett (from prospecting) and said, 'Sister, it's time to head home,' oh, how hard it was to go!"

Jewett wasn't a religious man, but he did see that the children were blessed, and then baptized at the age of eight. His temple work was done for him after his death, in 1955 at the St. George Temple. He was sealed to Eva; and two of their children, Dixie and Uvada were sealed to them.

Jewett died young. He was 56 years old. His youngest daughter, Uvada, was only six years old. Ila, Iris, and Dixie the three oldest, were married. Eva remarried William Duffin a few years after Jewett's death.

Brief History of Eva Alvira CRIPPS

Eva was bom about the turn of the century in Ely, Nevada in 1901, where her father was employed in the mines. They lived there until about 1910 when they moved to Hurricane, Utah. Her father, Alfred Cripps, was a convert to the LDS Church and immigrated to the United States when he was a youth. He worked as a miner and prospector. Her mother, Adaline Wright, lived most of her life in Southern Utah.

The family moved to Virgin, Washington, Utah, in 1908 where they lived for three years with a brother of her mother's, Marcellus Wright. They then moved to Hurricane, Washington, Utah; because Edward, her father, was called by the Church to help construct a canal from the mountains around Hurricane into the valleys. For awhile the family lived in a tent, as did many other families. The boys slept (and they all ate) outside under a limb-covered shed. The family started an adobe brick business and the children helped produce bricks for many of the homes in Hurricane A two-room house was eventually built for the large family. The children received limited schooling - Eva attended through the sixth grade. Money and food were scarce and Eva pulled cockleburs (a thorny weed) for ten cents a hundred. She also gleaned wheat and sold fifty-pound bags for ten cents. The women in the family took in laundry, and her mother acted as a midwife. Eva's father died when she was sixteen years of age. Shortly after his death, she went to work in Cedar City, Utah.

It was while working in Cedar City for the Mr. and Mrs. Ingram that she met her husband-to-be, Jewett Wood; Mrs. Ingram was Jewett's sister. He 'courted' her from Kanarra (about 20 miles) driving a horse and buggy. They married seven months after meeting, January 1919. Eva was seventeen years old, Jewett was twenty-eight. He had just returned from serving in the Army during World War I. The couple moved to Kanarra and lived with Jewett's mother who was a widow. They had a cot in the kitchen where they slept as there were only two rooms in the home. Eva and Jewett eventually rented a home and began their family. They had ten children over a twenty-year span, all of them were bom in Kanarra. There were three girls, and then three boys, and then four girls. Delia, the eighth child, was killed while riding a horse. She caught her foot in the stirrup as she began to fall off the horse. She was only five years old.

The Woods raised their family during the great depression and money was hard to come by. The children had only one or two dresses or coveralls and often shoes that had cardboard soles. The children had to cany water from a stream a few blocks away for their needs. Their home didn't have electricity or indoor toilets. Jewett's mother died, but his step-brother had mortgaged the land and Jewett and his family didn't get anything from the estate. Eva relied on the children to do most of the chores and baby-sitting as they were growing up. They all contributed financially whenever they could earn money. The two older sons served in the military during World War II. The girls married young and soon had families of their own. And then when Jewett died at the age of 56, Eva became a widow - she was 45. The four youngest children were still at home, ranging in age from six to sixteen years of age.

The Wood family was good friends with Bill Duffin and his wife. Bill's wife passed away about the time Jewett did, and in 1948 Bill and Eva married. They lived for awhile in Cedar City and then moved to Monrovia, California; and then to Norwalk, California. Bill was a religious person and in 1955 Eva went to the St. George Temple and was sealed to Jewett, her first husband. Dixie and Uvada, two of their daughters, were sealed to them at that time. Since then the other children have also been sealed to their parents.

Eva had a kidney removed when she was about 50 and was never very strong after that, having several health problems. Her second husband was 14 years older than Eva; Bill died in 1969. She remained in a little apartment in Norwalk, near many of her children, until her death ten years later in 1979. She died of a heart attack in Norwalk after surgery. Eva was a meek, quiet, gentle woman that endured many hardships - the loss of a child, two husbands, children that strayed, a depression, wars, and poor health for over 40 years - but she didn't complain. In a eulogy given by her son-in-law, Lewis Dalton, he said, "She possessed in her small woman-like hands a genius for handiwork of all kinds; much of which can be found in the homes of her children and friends. She never complained, she never criticized, she never condemned. "

Comments:

Henry Elisha Wood was the "black sheep" of the family for years. He was confused with another Henry Elisha Wood also born in Illinois who was married to two women and went AWOL during the Civil War. Our Henry also married two women after he came to Utah. So when the two were added together, we thought Henry was an 'interesting' person. After years of research, it was determined that they were two different men (see notes below).

Our Henry is 'missing9 for about 28 years (1838 -1866), we know he was born in Illinois and ended up in Utah about 1866, married Elenor Moss, had children by her, and then moved to Kanarra, Iron, Utah and married Eliza Martha Badcock Willis in 1883. They had five children. He had his last child when he was 70 years old! Henry died in Kanarra at age 86.

Death certificate, Census' Illinois 1830 & 1835, Nevada 1870; Utah 1880,1900,1910

Note: For years we have assumed Henry Elisha Wood had four wives and went AWOL. I have since found it to be two different men — one in Illinois; and the other born in Illinois with the same name and approx. date of birth; that ends up in Utah. This is based on the following:

(1) On the 1880 Census in Schuyler Co, Illinois EKW states his parents' births as being in Kentucky.

The other 1880,1900,1910 Census' in Iron Co, Utah states his parents' births as being in Vermont (which could be right, his mother was; his father could have been CT or VT). On EKW's death certificate it states his father's birthplace as VT, his mother's unknown).

(1A) Found 1870 Census for H.E. Wood in Elko, Nevada. Lists wife and children by Elenor Moss. Also 1880 Census from Circleville, Piute, Utah with same wife and children. This further supports (PROVES?!) case that we have two different men. Same man could not have been in Illinois and in the West on both 1870 and 1880 Census'!!

(2) In tracking the Illinois censuses, it appears that EKW was born in June-July due to the change he states on several censuses. Those July or after reflect a change in how old he was, he mav have a birth date of June. The Utah EKW has a birth date on his death certificate of Nov.

(3) Military records (which I believe are the Illinois EWK based on the fact he was from "Wilmington Precinct' and Mary E. and his family are on the 1860 census with him living in Wilmington Precinct, Greene Co, Illinois), state his age as 29 years old in 1862. Henry would have been 38 years old at that time. However, all the census records agree as to a birth date of 1824-5; whether the Illinois or the Utah EKW (which supports the case that they are the same person).

(4) Other things that support the 'same EWK' are that they were both born in Illinois in about the same year, although a couple of records on the Illinois HEW state Henry A. Wood.

Conclusion: Two different men. Need to undo Temple work connecting the Illinois Wood to our family.

This is the known history of the 'other' Henry.

Brief History of Henry Elisha WOOD

Henry Elisha was bom in 1824 in Carrolton, Greene, Illinois. His father, Elisha Kent Wood, was about 26 years old and his mother was 18. According to the records we have, he had two siblings (others may have existed). He was the oldest child, Cornelia, his sister, two years younger and then William R (probably Russell) bom in 1836 ten years after Cornelia, when Henry was 12 years old. By the time he was two years old the family was living in Morgan County, Illinois. Elisha Kent, his father, died in 1836 and from about 1838 to 1866 we do not know where Henry Elisha resided.

The next record, (the 1870 Elko, Nevada Census) we have Henry in Elko, Nevada with a wife "Emma" probably "Ellen" and two children, William, 3 years; and Henry 4 months. Henry Elisha is listed as a 'miner'.

Elenor was previously married about 1864 to Thomas King and they had at least two children, William bom 1865 and Henry bom 1867. Thomas King did not die until 1898 in Idaho so there must have been a divorce, but it is odd that the baby Henry was only 4 months old when she was with Henry E. Wood in Elko. So the two children listed on the census are Elenor's - not Henry's. The Moss family records say Henry Elisha Wood and Elenor Moss were married about 1872. Henry would have been 45 years old in 1870, so it is likely he was married prior to Elenor.

Henry is next in Circleville (Circle Valley), Utah on the 1880 Census with "Ellen", William (14), Henry (12), Kemila (Cornelia) (age 6), Elisha (4), and Ellen (1). It states they were bom in Utah Territory. Henry lists his occupation as "retired merchant". Both William and Henry lived in Piute County, Utah later in their lives. Moss family records state that Elenor, Cornelia, Elisha Kent, and Nellie Ellenor (children of Elenor and Henry Elisha) were all baptized into the LDS Church 6 Sep 1888, and then Henry in October of 1888.

Next we see Henry on a 1900 Census being married to Martha Eliza Badcock. She had previously been married to Lemuel Willis in 1872 and had several children by him before he died. When she married Henry (the FGS has 6 Mar 1883), she was 32 years old, and he was 58. They had five children all bom in Kanarra, Iron, Utah, between 1883 and 1894. Naomi, the youngest was bom in his 70th year! It is interesting to note that the Moss records state Henry Elisha Wood was baptized Oct 1888, one month after the rest of the Moss family was baptized! Was he going back and forth between families? It wasn't polygamy because he wasn't a member until 1888.

In 1900 he lists himself as a 'farmer' and by 1910 as 'none' under occupation, and on his death certificate it says "harness maker". No records survive, that we have been able to find, of his marriage to Martha Eliza, a marriage or divorce to Elenor, or of his life prior to 1870.

Henry Elisha died 28 Dec 1910 in Kanarra, Utah, where he is buried.

Brief History of Martha Eliza BADCOCK

Martha Eliza was bom in a little town in Cambridgeshire, England by the name of Litlington. She was bom in 1850, to Moses Badcock and Mary Webb. Eliza (as she was called) was baptized in 1858 at the age of eight years old, her mother had joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by that time - if not sooner. Her father and mother had a "religious disagreement" and her father (Moses Jarres Badcock) left the mother (Mary Webb) and children. He returned a couple of years later with consumption. "The father came home begging to be taken care of, as he was dying of consumption or what was then known as White Plague. This was quite an added burden for the poor little family, but they took him in and cared for him until his death. " Her father, Moses, died April 1854 in Litlington when Martha Eliza was less than four years old.

The first of her family to immigrate was her brother, William, who joined the Church in 1866 (?), and traveled to Utah that same year with his new wife. William was endowed in 1868, so he had to be in Utah at that time to receive his endowments. (Five other siblings joined the Church.) He lived in Kanosh, Utah in 1870; and Price City, Washington, Utah in 1880. Eliza is not on the census with him and his wife, Amelia Jarvis. They were married September 1869 in Salt Lake City, Utah. William took his mother's maiden name as his last name—so became a 'Webb' instead of a 'Badcock'. It is assumed all the family immigrants did so as well.

Martha Eliza came to the USA on the 18th of July, 1869 with a group of 365 Saints from Liverpool, England under the charge of John E. Pace. They arrived at New York about August 10, 1869 and then traveled across the United States to arrive at Ogden, Utah on August 20th. Eliza was 19 years old at the time of her voyage on the steam ship Colorado. It was a rough trip, with much sea sickness. About 1877 Eliza's mother, Mary [Jackson] Webb came to Utah and lived with Eliza until her mother, Mary died in 1903.

Eliza married Lemuel Merrill Willis in April 1872, and they moved to Kanarra, Iron, Utah where he owned some land. They had five children bom between 1873 and 1879. He died in November 1878, before the last child, Lemuel was bom (May 1879). Eliza now had four young children (Agnes had died), the oldest being only five years old, to take care of by herself. By 1880 her mother, Mary Webb, was living with her and probably helped with the children, although Mary was 76 years old by then (she lived to be over 97!). Eliza was 29. She did have the farm and some mountain land left her by her first husband, Lemuel Willis. They lived comfortably.

A handsome prospector came to Kanarra a few years later (so said an old lady who remembered him). He may have stayed at a boarding house that Eliza kept on her property. In 1883 she married him (Henry Elisha Wood). He originally came from Illinois to Nevada to Utah where he had married Elenor Moss in Circleville, Utah and had three children by her. The marriage didn't work out, and Elenor returned to her first husband as his polygamous wife. Henry was 49 years old, Eliza 33 when they married 6 Mar 1883 in Kanarra.

Henry and Eliza started having children immediately; the first, Alice, was bom 7 December 1883. They had four more children. On the 1910 Census they had six children still living with them. Henry, being fifteen years her senior, died in December 1910. By 1920 Arthur, Herbert and Jewett (as well as his new wife, Eva, and their first child, Ila) were all living with Eliza. Iris Wood Dalton, her granddaughter, remembers Eliza who died when Iris was sixteen years old. She said she was a small woman and liked to sit on the porch in her later years. However, in Eliza's younger days she worked as did all farmers. Iris remembers her cooking for all the crew that came to help on the farm. Summers were spent in the mountains where they took the sheep, goats and cows to pasture. They would make huge quantities of cheese and sell it.

Eliza continued to live in Kanarra until her death in November 1937. She lived to be 87 years old and is buried near her home of over sixty-five years.

Brief History of Edward Alfred CRIPPS

Edward, later nicknamed "Teddy", was bom in 1861 in "the green hills" of England, the only child of John B. and Matilda Izzard Milgate (Stringer) Cripps. His mother had previously been married and was later sealed to her first husband, Edward Stringer, by whom she had bom seven children. Edward's parents joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in England, Edward being baptized in 1871 at the age of 10. As was often the custom when emigration to America was planned, Edward was sent to America with a relative. Edward came over on the steamship Wyoming in 1873. He was with 510 LDS immigrants under the charge of J. D. Fairbanks. The ship was nearly wrecked near Sable Island - about 700 miles from New York. The Captain "cast about $40,000 worth of 'ironware' overboard to lighten the ship, thus allowing the incoming tide to lift the ship off the sand ban\C\ After disembarking in New York City, the journey was resumed by rail, via Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Chicago and Omaha to Ogden, Utah where the company arrived Sept. 28, 1873.

From Ogden, Edward went to Fillmore, Utah where he was taken in by his mother's relatives. Uncle Jessee Millgate and his wife Mary Jane. They lived in a small log cabin (Aunt, Uncle and six cousins). No mention is made of schooling, Edward helped the family by planting and selling vegetables, fruit and seedlings. He later taught his own children how to garden by using the irrigation methods prevalent in southern Utah.

Shortly after he moved out of his uncle's home and went to Dixie (at age 16), his parents came to Utah (in 1879 six years after Teddy's arrival in the US), and settled in Fillmore. The 1880 census shows Edward A and his wife, Adaline; and child, Alice - age 8 months, next to (or with) his parents (and close to the Millgates) He must have gone to Fillmore again to see his parents after their long separation. His occupation is listed as a carpenter. They were back in Virgin by 1882 when their son, Edward, was bom. Teddy became a miner and prospector, working at many of the major mines in Utah and Nevada. Several children were bom in mining "boom towns" which are now ghost towns. Silver mines had a lot of silicon dust which caused lung damage and were dubbed "widow makers". The 'Delamar dust' did affect Edward's life later on and he died at the early age of 55.

Adaline LaVem Wright, a young woman from Virgin, married Teddy in the St. George LDS Temple in 1879. They were both 17 years old. During his mining days, he was away from the family much of the time; but Adaline and the children moved to be near him whenever possible. After eight children the family settled in Ely, White Pine, Nevada and operated a profitable blacksmith shop and livery stable. Four more children were bom there, including our lineage, Eva Alvira. The older boys were on a ranch at White River catching and breaking mustangs for the livery stable business.

Once again the hope of better profits lured Edward back to Utah with the discovery of oil in Virgin, Utah (the home of Adaline's father). The profits from Ely were eventually used up. The family moved to Hurricane in 1899 and were the local undertakers, laying out the bodies in the home and sewing clothing for the dead. The boys and Teddy also helped the crews construct the canal which brought water from the Virgin River into the fields, which changed the town from desert into farmland. They lived in boarded up tents until their adobe home was finished at 2nd North Street. Eventually, they purchased the block where they operated an adobe brick yard and kiln. Teddy spent more time prospecting, often taking his children to see the mines. The children were taught to be hard-working.

Teddy also wrote poems, or "odes" and lyrics for songs. He wrote, and had published, a song entitled "A Handful of Turf. The song expressed his longing for homeland and family. It was never very successful, with a granddaughter saying that the unsold music was used as "as padding under the rug". The words are as follows:

There's an old ancient cottage where I happily dwelt; It had ivy entwined round the door.

And the dear ones I loved would all gather 'round. But their faces I'll see never more.

I left my old home and part of my heart When I traveled far over the sea.

But a handful of turf from the land of my birth Brings many sweet mem 'ries to me.

I can still see my mother in her rocking chair And my father and sister so dear.

And I wish all could be as it was in those days When we shared all our love and good cheer.

But all who were dear are beneath the green turf In that land so far o 'er the salt sea.

But a handful of turf from the land of my birth Brings many sweet mem 'ries to me.

He took literary license in the above song, as his parents died and were buried in Fillmore, Utah; but it probably expressed his feelings, and those of other immigrants from England. Another composition entitled, "A Christmas Ode", written and copyrighted Dec. 1914 by Teddy Cripps, Hurricane, Utah; expresses his feelings of World War I.

Edward "Teddy" Alfred Cripps lived in Hurricane until his death in 1917 at the age of 55. Their youngest child, Myrtle, was 14 years old when he passed away. Adaline survived him by 38 years, living to be 94 years old.

¥.:V;

(Copyrighted Dec. 1914 by Teddy Cnpps)

When the cruel war is finished And the battle cry is o'er

Those who left will be returning To their loved ones as before,

Rut so many will be missing And the ranks will be so small

That the soldiers most expected Will be missing, after all.

There are many broken hearted For the loved ones who are gene.

Women weeping for their husbands Or, .perhaps, an only son.

Many brave lads left their sweethearts And departed for the fray

Who have said goodby forever Till the resurrection day.

Let. us pause for just a moment — My hand trembles while I write —

To think of poor and homeless Who will suffer from the fight,

Weeping, wailing, slowly dying With a bleeding broken heart.

Someone waits for somone's coming, Why did someone e'er depart?

While we are making merry And our hearts are filled with glee

Let us stop and think a moment Of our friends across the sea;

Let us pray to God in heaven That the poor be blessed today

That we might be more happy On this merry Christmas day.

Teddy Cripps, Hurricane, Utah.

Comments:

Adaline lived a difficult life in her early years. Raised in Virgin, Utah during its pioneering period, she learned to be hard-working and how to survive in the harsh climate of 'Dixie'. She married Alfred Cripps and they had twelve children, loosing three babies. Alfred was a miner and they moved often until finally settling in Hurricane, Utah in 1906. Addie resided there until she was unable to care for herself and had to live with children in her later years. She was slender, 5'2" with black hair. She made her home and property beautiful with lovely flower gardens outside and handiwork inside. She was a kind, helpful person often helping the sick.

Brief History of Adaline LaVern WRIGHT

Adaline was bom October 4,1861 to Jefferson and Sarah Elizabeth Angell Wright. She was bom in Brigham City, Utah. That same year at the fall General Conference of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, her father, Jefferson, was called to Virgin City in Southern Utah. The Wrights arrived in 1862 and were among the first to settle the area. They were advised by Brigham Young to stay close together until the Indian trouble could be settled. The first grist mill was built in Virgin and headed by Jefferson.

In 1865 Adaline's grandparents, Solomon and Eunice Angell, also moved to Virgin. Her parents and grandparents were leaders in the community, Solomon being a General Authority. Jefferson, Adaline's father, went on another mission in 1877, he was a Seventy. Sarah, her mother, was called as a counselor in the Relief Society in 1868 (Adaline would have been seven years old), and served for 20 years. Virgin was a difficult town to live in as the Virgin River was a continual problem and concern, flooding often.

When Addie was seventeen years old she married Edward AJ&ed "Teddy" Cripps in the St. George, Utah Temple. He was a prospector and miner and for the first eight years of their married life, Addie stayed in Virgin - near her parents and brothers and sisters while Teddy left to go mining. They did go to Fillmore for awhile in 1880-1 to see Edward's parents who had arrived from England in 1879. She had four children in Virgin; one, Edward, died when he was a year old. She then began to go with her husband as he moved from job-to-job—first Silver Reef, then Cedar City, Utah; then Delamar and Ely, Nevada. Two more children died, one the day of birth and the last child shortly after birth in 1905. They had a total of twelve children, nine living to adulthood.

Delamar was a "company town" on land owned by the federal government. There were ten saloons and several churches, including a Latter-day Saint church where the family undoubtedly attended. Free medical care as well as electric lights and piped-in water were provided by the company. The miners however were exposed to "Delamar dust", a toxic dust that killed many (including Edward Alfred Cripps) later in their lives with a lung disease.

While in Ely the family built a livery stable, blacksmith shop and freight line. Apparently it was quite successful and for the first time they were enjoying a stable life away from the mines. Our ancestor, Eva Alvira and her sister Myrtle, were bom in Ely. Another son, Frank, was killed after an accident while breaking in a horse.

In 1908 "oil was struck in Virgin and it looked like it was going to be a big one". Teddy saw the 'big chance', sold out and moved back to Virgin. The oil strike wasn't anything like it was supposed to be; but it did get Adaline and the children back to southern Utah where she could be near her brothers and sisters. A canal was being constructed to bring water to a new settlement. Hurricane. Teddy and the boys began working on the canal. The earlier settlers had been digging the canal since December 1893, under trying circumstances. The family lived in three large tents; one for the boys, one for the girls and one where they lived and the parents slept. The men received property in the town of Hurricane as payment for working on the canal. The Cripps received four lots where the block which is now 2nd West and 2nd North stands.

Teddy and Addie started making adobe bricks. The first bricks were not perfect and so they bought the necessary equipment to make fired bricks. It was a family affair—the daughters rode the horses that turned the paddle to mix the mud and straw together; and the sons drove the teams to get wood to fire the kilns. The fire burned night and day until the bricks were a finished product. Many of the homes in Hurricane were constructed with the bricks made by the Cripps family.

Water was hard to get and electricity wasn't brought to the homes until 1917. The weather was always hot in the summer and crops were hard to grow. Adaline, however, was an especially good gardener and raised vegetables and fruit trees as well as flowers in their yard. Carnations, sweet peas and roses always surrounded

surrounded her home. Teddy would take a wagon full of vegetables and fruit over the mountains to Cedar City and sell the produce to supplement the family income

After the brickyard business began to prosper, Teddy once again continued his "hobby" of prospecting for silver. He owned several mines and would sometimes take his children to inspect them. The Cripps' also began to help prepare the dead for burial, even "laying the body out" in their living room prior to the funeral Addie was a petite lady, always well groomed and well dressed. She was 5 feet 2 inches tall with black hair which she braided and coiled around her head. A friend from hurricane is quoted as saying "Isee this not-too-tall, thin, beautiful lady. She had the darkest hair and eyes to match. Her hair never went gray." She was always neat and clean, wearing a waist apron, kind and caring. "

Myrtle Cripps, a daughter, said her mother wanted her grandchildren to be raised in the Church, "doing those things that were right. She always said, 'Doing the right thing is Just as easy as doing anything else'". A great granddaughter, Debbie Cripps, said she was surprised how many people remembered Addie as their Primary teacher. One remembered her as being a loving teacher with a strong testimony of the gospel. They also remember that she was a mid-wife in the town and was present at many births.

Addie was very talented in needlework and made many beautiful things by crocheting and doing netting, a type of broomstick lace. She was also musically inclined and at one time there was a Cripps Family Band with a harmonica, a piano and an organ which Grandma could play. She also loved dances and socials. Her gardens looked and smelled beautiful, as she was always working in her yard. Granddaughters remember that she was a kind person, always helping others - taking food to them when they were sick, and always fulfilling her Church callings.

One granddaughter, Betsy Ross Schultz (daughter of Sarah), related some memories of Adaline that shed light on her life style and personality. "The memories about staying at grandmother's are fragmented, for I was still quite young. We lived with her for awhile before Nevada (a sister) was born. I remember her attic, a magical place filled with musical things. She even had an organ! Grandma had her treasures: a little piece of special lace, a pretty arrowhead, a cameo, all kept in a little tin box. She had the most beautiful flower garden—sweet peas, rambling roses, flowers of all kinds that left their scent on the air of the summer evenings. I remember so much the smells of Utah, of the sulfur rising from the Virgin River, of the fields and the gardens and the orchards and the pine trees of the mountains.

"I can remember my grandmother talking to my mother, telling her that she had raised her children, and it was time for Sarah to get her own place. Mother (Sarah) was in many ways very like my grandmother. Physically she was also small, and was called "Tiny"; her shoe size must have been a two or three. She probably loved deeply, but was very matter-of-fact about life. She was there if you needed her, called if you needed a call, but otherwise expected you to get on with your life as she wished to get on with hers. She was proud of her Mormon heritage, and was an active member of the Relief Society all her life. Those are the same impressions I had of my grandmother from those early encounters.

"When the trees in Grandma's orchard were full of apples, I remember the family getting together to pick them, and quarter them, and prepare them for drying which was done by laying them on screens on the roof. You had better be involved in the work, or make yourself mighty scarcel I remember going for pinon (pine) nuts, the men shaking the trees, the children gathering them into all kinds of containers. I also remember going to Virgin with my grandmother and her sisters and being shown the grave of my great-grandfather, Jefferson Wright. How proud they were of him. I remember seeing at that time the remains of the old home place."

Teddy died of lung disease in 1917, their youngest child was fourteen years old at the time. After he died the family took in washings and ironings, cleaned houses, baked cakes for weddings and birthdays, and made temple clothes. After the children got married or were on their own, Addie continued to care for herself at her

home in Hurricane. Her husband died 37 years prior to her death.

Before Addie's death, she enjoyed visiting her children, she would sometimes get on a bus and travel to California to see some of her girls; calling them to have them pick her up. According to a newspaper article, when she was 90 she took off on a bus alone to California to visit a sick daughter They would take her home by auto. Eventually, she couldn't take care of everything and she began to live with her children, moving from one to another. A news article states she was living at the Truman Rest Home in St. George just prior to her 91st birthday. She died in 1955 at the age of 93 in St. George, Utah, and is buried in Hurricane where she lived for 45 years. The same article mentioned above states she had 14 (?) children, was grandchildren of 51, great-grandmother of 90, and great-great grandmother of 12 children (in 1955)!

Note: I, Shauna Hart, her great-granddaughter, also knew Grandma Cripps. I lived in Hurricane for several years across the street from her home and would go to visit her. She tried to teach me how to crochet for a Primary project. With her help I made a handkerchief with a crocheted edge.

Brief History of Elisha Kent WOOD

Elisha Kent Wood was bom between 1795 and 1800 in either Connecticut (land transaction records on father place him in New Milford, New Haven, Connecticut at that time), or in Vermont (son's recollection on nature censuses). Family probably moved to Vergennes, Addison, Vermont when Elisha was about five years old. His father, Henry, sold and bought several pieces of property in his lifetime, but after living in Connecticut for several years, moved to Vermont where he lived for about 17 years. Elisha lived with Henry and Lucy, his parents, at least until 1820 where he is listed on the census for Vergennes; and 1822 when he was on the Addison County organization list.

It appears Elisha was the youngest child. His sister Anna was bom in 1774 and Polly in 1776 in Connecticut. No other children appear until Elisha, some eighteen plus years later (which seems odd).

Elisha's father died in 1821, and shortly thereafter Elisha moved to Carrolton, Greene, Illinois. Henry left a sizeable estate to his wife and three living children: Lucy, Elisha, Anna Reynolds, and Polly Warner. The probate lists Elisha as residing in Carrolton, Greene, Illinois in 1823. Villeroy Hepburn, an uncle to Elisha's future wife, witnessed the transaction.

Emeline Marcia Russell and Elisha Kent Wood were married on July 17,1823 in Greene County, Illinois. Her guardian was Oliver Bangs who had married her aunt Myrtilla Hepburn Russell. Both of her parents had died young—her mother, Betsey Ann Hepburn; and father, William Eaton Russell. Myrtilla, her aunt, married Emeline's father (William Eaton Russell) shortly after Betsey's death and raised Emeline. After William's death, she married Oliver Bangs - thus Oliver was Emeline's guardian. Oliver signed as giving his permission for the marriage in 1823. Emeline was seventeen years old and Elisha Kent was about twenty-five years old.

Elisha Kent ran for Coroner of Green County in 1823, and only received two votes. In November 1824, a son was bom, Henry Elisha Wood. It appears they moved to Jacksonville, Morgan County, Illinois before 1826, because their daughter, Cornelia Porter Wood was bom there. Perhaps their son was also? In 1830 and later in 1835 they were residing in Morgan County per the censuses. A son, William R (probably Russell), was bom about 1833-4, probably in Morgan County also.

In 1832 Elisha was in the Black Hawk War, where he is listed as a "surgeon". He belonged to the Third Brigade of mounted Volunteers commanded by Brig General James D. Henry. He was an officer with the 2 Regt., and was commissioned June 18, 1832. The record states he was from Morgan County. The War was fought in northern Illinois, not too far from his home.

It is interesting that Morgan County was just one county south-east of Hancock County where the Mormons were settling about 1836 to 1844. Some newspaper articles mention the "Mormons" and "Jo Smith" with derision. One wonders how Elisha and his family felt about them.

On January 7, 1833, there is a property transaction wherein E.K. Wood purchased lots 41,42,60 and 62 ""lying and being in the town of Exeter County". The transaction was witnessed by Oliver Bangs.

On 8 Nov 1836, Elisha Kent Wood died in Exeter, Illinois. Estate administration records from Exeter, Morgan County, Illinois, dated 13 Nov 1836 signed by Emeline M. Wood, state that Mr. Thomas Brownson was to administer the estate of "my deceased husband'. In The Ulinoian in Nov 1838 there was an administrator's notice in Morgan County, "estate of Elisha K. Wood, sale of town lots in Exeter. " Henry was only 38 years of age when he passed away. Henry Elisha, his eldest son and our lineage, had just turned twelve years old the day before his father died. Daughter, Cornelia, was ten years old, and if the records are correct, her birthday was also 7 November. The youngest son, William R. was just two years old.

Comments:

Emeline was preceded in death by many loved ones: two husbands, two sisters, two (at least) daughters, her mother at age four, and her father at age eight. She was raised by her Aunt Myrtilla Hepburn Russell (who married her father after Emeline's mother's death); Myrtilla passed away as did her stepfather in Emeline's lifetime. Her first husband, Henry E. Wood, died when she was 30; her second, Dudley Avery, died after only five years of marriage when she was 36.

William Hepburn Russell, who later founded the Pony Express and became rich and famous and then infamous, was a half-brother. At least one of Emeline's sons and a grandson (Avery) went to work for him.

Emeline lived in Vermont, Illinois and Tennessee. For over 30 years she lived with her daughter, Cornelia, and her husband Thomas Black - a prosperous landowner in Carrolton, Illinois. After Cornelia's death, she moved to Chicago to live with Fanny Parker, another daughter by her second husband. It was there she died at the age 85.

Brief History of Emeline Marcia RUSSELL

Emeline's mother, Betsey Hepburn Russell, died five days before her daughter's fourth birthday (1810). A few months after Betsey passed away, her father, William Eaton Russell, married Myrtilla Hepburn, Betsey's sister. William and Myrtilla had two children - William Hepburn Russell (founder of the Pony Express), and Adeline Elizabeth Russell (who married Thomas Black.. .who married Adeline's niece - Cornelia after Adeline passed away.) William Eaton Russell was a soldier and he died when Emeline was eight years old -probably during military service in the War of 1812. He left not only Emeline, but possibly two other boys (a girl had died in 1808). Myrtilla was left with at least three small children (Emeline, Wlm H., and Adeline). She married Oliver Bangs in 1816 in Waltham, Vermont (two years after William Eaton Russell died) and they had three children. So Emeline grew up with a half-brother (William Hepburn Russell) and half-sister (Adeline Elizabeth Russell), and three children belonging to Oliver and a former wife.

After a difficult childhood, Emeline married Elisha Kent Wood in 1823 in Illinois when she was 17 years old. He had inherited some money from land sales in Vermont from his deceased father. They had three or four children (Henry Elisha Wood bom 7 Jul 1824 in Carrolton, Greene, Illinois; Cornelia Porter Wood bom in November 1826 in Jacksonville, Morgan, Illinois; William R. Wood bom abt. 1833 probably in Illinois; and possibly one more female that shows on the census). On the 1830 Census it shows that Oliver and Myrtilla Bangs, and Elisha Kent and Emeline Wood, lived next door to each other in Carrolton, Illinois. Emeline's difficulties continued; after only thirteen years of marriage, her husband, Elisha Kent, passed away. She was only 30 years old. Elisha died 8 Nov 1836.

A few months after Elisha died she married Dudley Avery in Greene County, Illinois; the date was 30 August 1837. Dudley, sometimes referred to as 'Clay', moved the family to Memphis, Shelby, Tennessee where two children were bom to him and Emeline. Adela was bom in 1838 and Fanny in June 1842. Unbelievably, in December 1842, just six months after Fanny's birth, her second husband, Dudley, passed away. They had only been married five years. Dudley had previously been married to Emily Copeland and the two of them had eight children! When Dudley and Emeline married the children's ages ranged from four to fourteen. It is assumed that Emeline not only raised them while Dudley lived, but probably continued to raise some of them after his death (the youngest would have been just 9 when her father died, and 17 when Emeline appears on 1850 Greene Co. census). In addition, Emeline had the two daughters bom of their union (Adela and Fanny).

Emeline moved back to Illinois sometime after Dudley's death, she appeared on the 1850 census as living with her daughter, Cornelia Wood Black, and her husband, Thomas Black. Thomas had a large home and was well-to-do. At last she may have had some peace. But it wasn't long lived, Adela Bangs, a daughter died in February 1864, and Cornelia Black, the daughter she was living with, died in April 1865! Tragedy seemed to be constant with Emeline. She stayed in Carrolton for a few years with Thomas even after Cornelia died.

In addition, her oldest son, Henry Elisha Wood, moved to Utah sometime before 1860, and as far as we know she never saw him again. William R. Wood, another son was in Missouri with his uncle, William Hepburn Russell. We have a letter he sent to his sister Cornelia from Lexington, Lafayette, Missouri in 1856. We do not know what happened to him after that. After Cornelia's death and Thomas Black's third marriage, Emeline must have felt she should go to live with her youngest daughter. Somewhere between 1870 (on Greene County census) and 1880 (Cook County census) she moved to Chicago, Cook, Illinois to live with her daughter Francis (Fanny) Emma Avery Parker. Emeline passed away there in 1891 at the age of 85.

In Summary, Emeline lost a lot of people in her life. Her mother at age 4, her father at age 8. Her first husband, Elisha Kent Wood died when she was 30 (1836) leaving her with 3-4 small children. Emeline's Aunt Myrtilla (who had raised her) died when she was 38 years old (1844), and her step-father Oliver Bangs after 1833. Her second husband, Dudley Avery, lived only five years after their marriage (1842) and left her with two more small children, plus several of her step-children. Two of her daughters died - Adela and Cornelia when they were still relatively young. It seems she may have been sad often.

Comments:

Moses was born and died in a small area of Cambridge, England. He and his wife, Mary Webb, had five or six children - all of whom were born in Litlington, Cambs., England. Mary, his wife, had two sons-Stephen and Edward, and a daughter-Emma Martha (who had died in infancy) by an 'unknown' man. Moses had been married previously to Mary Miller.

The family name was changed from Badcock to Webb (wife's maiden name) when some of his children came to the United States. Or, another version of why the name was changed, "Grandfather (Moses Badcock) found that his children were being made fun of, so he decided to change the name."

Brief History of Moses BADCOCK

Moses was bom in Wendy, Cambridge, England about 1805 to John Badcock and Elizabeth Jackens (or Jenkins as some records state). At some point he married Mary Miller. We do not have any records of their union, nor of their children, if any. To quote a history written by a granddaughter of William Webb, "Moses' ancestry supposedly came to England with William the Conqueror and roamed in Devonshire where the Doones were at the height of their banditry". Our records go back to the 1700s where the family came from Cambridge, England, so this cannot be substantiated.

At the age of about thirty-seven, 14 July 1842, Moses married Mary Webb. She was about the same age as he, but had not been married as she is listed as a 'spinster' and he as a 'widower' on the marriage certificate.

Note: Mary did have at least three children—Edward [1832-1851], Stephen [1839-1871], and Emma Martha [1842-?] listed as 'basebom" on Parish records from Litlington, Cambs., England. Stephen lived with his grandmother, Mary [Jackson] Webb (age 83) on the 1871 census of Litlington. Edward does not appear after the 1851 Litlington census - at which time he was 18 years of age. Family records indicate Emma "died young".

Mary Webb and Moses had five or six children together: William, Moses, Emma Matilda, Jane (one bom in 1842 and another in 1852?) and Martha Eliza Badcock. All of them were bom in Litlington.

On the 1841 census, Moses is listed as a laborer. He made his mark on the marriage register with an "x", so apparently could not write. On the marriage certificate, dated in 1842, he is listed as a "shepperd". The family record says that when his family joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Moses left them because of "religious differences". It also states he had a drinking problem. The family all got jobs to provide for themselves after he left - Mary and Martha Eliza working as milliners (making straw hats).

William (a son) worked first as a baker and then as an apprentice to a veterinarian, and then received a promotion to plowman on Lord Warwick's estates. William could also sing very well - "with perfect pitch" and one night when he was singing Lord Warwick heard him and "was so impressed with his voice that he gave him the opportunity of going to night school where he studied voice culture. He became a fine singer. " William would have been about ten years of age when his father, Moses, left.

Moses died of consumption, his family taking care of him after he returned to them sick. In spite of religious 'differences' with his family, and an apparent drinking problem; Moses did marry Mary who had two or three children out of wedlock, and he did return to the family - let's not judge too hastily.

Mary, his wife; William, his son; and Martha Eliza, his daughter; all joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as well as six of Mary's brothers and sisters - all of which eventually immigrated to Utah.

After arriving in the United States, Mary Webb Badcock (Moses' wife) lived with her daughter, Martha Eliza; in Kanarra, Iron, Utah. She was living there in 1880 at the age of 76. She died in 1903 in Kanarra, Utah, outliving her husband by almost 50 years.

Comments:

Mary didn't marry until she was 37 years old, however, she had three children by a previous association. She joined the LDS Church and her husband left her and the children (five or six of Mary and Moses') because of "religious differences". He returned a few years later with consumption and the family took care of him until his death in 1854. Mary came to Utah about 1877 and lived with her daughter Martha Eliza Badcock

See last will of a William Webb born in Harlton, County of Cambridge dated 14 May 1745, in which William bears testimony that the time was nearing when Jesus Christ would return to set up his Kingdom. "It will not happen in my lifetime nor that of my children and perhaps not my grandchildren. But the time will come soon when believers may become members in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ" Several things point to the restoration, including the fact that "there would he a way for the dead to enter the Kingdom (of Christ)". I have not been able to tie this William with our ancestors, but as Harlton is only five miles from Wendy, Cambridge, England, I cannot help but think they were related. I have included it as a testimony of this William Webb of the foreknowledge of the restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Brief History of Mary WEBB

Mary was bom in Litlington, Cambridge, England 3 April 1805. She was the eldest of twelve children bom to DeGrass and Mary (Jackson) Webb. Her parents "were very good members of the Episcopal Church. Every Sunday morning her mother, with all the children, would walk five miles in order to attend Sunday school services." All of her siblings were also bom in Litlington. There was a family tradition that Mary's mother, Mary Jackson, was raised in the court of Napoleon Bonaparte, and as rumor had it was an illegitimate child of his. We can trace Mary Jackson's genealogy quite away back and facts do not support this claim.

Mary is listed as a spinster on her marriage certificate to Moses Badcock on 14 Jul 1842. Mary was then 37 years old and Moses, was also 37 and a widower - having been previously married to Mary Miller. Moses was bom in Wendy, a town about 5 miles from Litlington. We do not have any records of Moses' children by his prior marriage, if any.

Mary did have at least three children—Stephen who was bom Dec 1839 and is listed as 'basebom" on Parish records from Litlington; Edward, bom 7 Oct 1832 who is also listed as base son of Mary Webb; and another child, "Emma Martha who died in infancy" according to Webb family records. Stephen is still in Litlington, living with his grandmother, (Mary Webb Jackson - age 83) on the 1871 census of Litlington. (An index card on a temple record states he was buried 18 Oct 1849 - 1 think that is incorrect) Edward does not appear after the 1851 Litlington, England census, at which time he was 18 years of age. Perhaps he moved to another part of the country or died? Mary Webb and Moses Badcock were married in Litlington, Cambridge 14 July 1842 (population 500). They had five or six children, William, Moses, Emma Matilda, Jane (perhaps two Janes one bom 1848 and another 1852) and Martha Eliza Badcock. All of them were bom in Litlington. It is commendable that Moses married Mary in light of the birth status of her children.

On the 1842 marriage certificate Moses is listed as a "sheppperd". He and Mary made their 'mark' on the marriage register with an "x", so apparently could not write. The family record says that when the family joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Moses left the family. It states he had a drinking problem. The family all got jobs to provide for themselves: Mary and Martha Eliza (daughter) worked as milliners (making straw hats). According to the "Memories of William Webb" by a granddaughter, William (son) worked first as a baker and then as an apprentice to a veterinarian, and then received a promotion to plowman on Lord Warwick's estates.

Apparently Moses came back to his family asking them to take care of him as he was dying of consumption. They did so, caring for him until his death.

William (son) left to go to Zion on the ''American Congress' in May of 1866 with his new wife, Sara Dellow, whom he had married two days before the ship departed. It is assumed that some of the family joined the Church at the same time. One of Mary's sisters, Martha Webb Campkin Young, was baptized on November 1, 1844. Another sister, Emma Harradence also joined the Church. Martha Eliza Badcock was baptized in 1858 upon her eighth birthday, so they were members by then. Also, if the father, Moses, left because of "religion", and he later returned and then died in 1854, the date of baptism was more likely about 1844. A total of six children of DeGrass and Mary Jackson Webb joined the LDS Church and immigrated to Utah.

Mary Webb Badcock also immigrated to the United States and lived with her daughter, Martha Eliza in Kanarra, Kane, Utah. We do not know exactly when Mary arrived, however, Mary was listed on the Census as living in Kanarra in 1880 at the age of 76 and also in 1900 at the age of 97! She is buried in Kanarra, Utah. She is not on a US census prior to 1880.

Brief History of John B. CRIPPS

John was bom in Leysdown on the Isle of Sheppy in Kent, England on May 21, 1814, probably never imagining he would eventually go to America. He was the third of thirteen children bom to Edward and Lydia Johncock Cripps. All of them were bom in Leysdown, although his father was bom in Harty and his mother in Oare, Kent, England.

John first married Mary Ann Millgate, daughter of Edward and Martha (Jackson) Millgate. They were married about 1840 and she died in 1858. They probably had children. He then married Matilda Izzard Millgate about 1860 in Leysdown, Kent, England. A son, Edward Alfred Cripps was bom to them on 10 Jun 1861.

John and Matilda joined the Church in England, and desired to go to the United States to join the other Saints. Not having enough money for all the family to all go at the same time, they sent their son, Edward, ahead of them. He traveled on a steamship, the Wyoming, in 1873.

The parents, John and Matilda, also came over on the Wyoming - but six years later - September 1879. John was 64 and Matilda was 60. Emily Millgate (a niece), the daughter of Matilda's brother, William—who was not able to come with her father; came with the Cripps'. They sailed out of Liverpool under Nils C. Flygare, the church leader, with 336 other saints. They arrived at New York Sept 16, 1879 They continued by rail and arrived at Salt Lake September 24th.

They immediately went to Fillmore where they lived with Emily Millgate Ralph, and lived next door to Jessee Millgate - relatives of Matilda. A short time before John's death in 1882 they moved to the southeastern part of Fillmore, he was sick for a few months before he passed away. His wife, Matilda, moved back to the Ralph family and lived with her sister, Emily, again.

Emily Millgate, the niece, wrote a brief history of her Uncle and Aunt later in her life. She said "Uncle was ever kind to me, he was my champion when things went wrong as they will at times. He adapted himself to the different ways of his adopted country and did everything in his power to help support himself.. Uncle John had striking blue eyes, curly hair, it was white when I first knew him. I went to visit their home in East Church, when I was a girl seven years old. This place was a pretty village in the Isle of Sheppy. Uncle John had a position in a large estate, important enough that he wore a uniform, and when he was dressed up he was a fine looking man. This was after Edward (son) had left for America. In fact the reason I went was because his mother was lonesome and my father had me visit with her to somewhat take his place. I looked out of his bedroom window and looked up and down the street; it was a beautiful view, the little church across the way, and nice looking homes with flowers and shrubberies so natural to that part of the country. "

John and Matilda did get to see their son, Edward, again. On the 1880 census from Fillmore, Millard, Utah, John and Matilda are listed - as is Edward and his new wife, Adalaide and a daughter Alice. It isn't known how long they were able to spend with each other, or if they saw each other again; but it is nice to know they did re-unite at least once.

As stated earlier, John became ill and died 22 Feb 1882 in Fillmore, Utah, where he is buried.

Brief History of Matilda Izzard MILLGATE

Matilda was bom 5 Jul 1819 in Boughton Under Blean, Kent, England to Jeremiah Millgate and Ann Reader bom 1797 also in Boughton Under Blean. She was the oldest of eleven children A brother and a sister both died young. Her parents moved from Boughton to Leysdown to Minster to Harty and back to Leysdown within 20 years. Her father died when Matilda was 44 years old and her mother ten years later when Matilda was 54 years old.

On 13 October 1843 she married Edward Stringer (bom 1821) in Dunnings Lane, Rochester, Kent, England (or Christ Church, Dunkirk, Kent). She was 24 and he was 22. They had seven children, and based on the children's places of birth, like her parents, moved around quite a lot - but probably within a few miles of each place. Her husband, Edward, died in 1856 in Merston, Kent, England. Their youngest child would have been three years old at that time.

In 1861 she married John B. Cripps, a widower. We know they had at least one son together. In 1861 a son, Edward Alfred, was bom to them, Matilda would have been 42 years old and John 47. It is unknown when the family joined the LDS Church, however, Alfred (their son) was baptized 3 Aug 1871 in England; and her parents were baptized in 1850 and 1852 Matilda would have been 31 years old at the time her mother was baptized, perhaps she was baptized at that time also. Matilda was later sealed to her first husband, Edward Stringer in Utah.

In 1873, Matilda and John sent their only son to sail to Salt Lake City. He was only 12 years old at the time. He went to Liverpool and then sailed on the steamship, Wyoming, to New York City where he went by train to Salt Lake City and then to Fillmore where he lived with Matilda's brother, Jesse Millgate. He later moved to Southern Utah.

Matilda and John left their family in England and took the same route (even the same ship) as their son had, traveling to Salt Lake City six years later in September 1879. They too lived with relatives in Fillmore. Some histories indicate that parents and son never saw each other again. That is not true. On the 1880 Fillmore, Millard, Utah census; it shows the parents and Edward (with his wife and daughter) living with or next to them. So, happily, they did see each other at least one more time. Edward and his family returned to live in Southern Utah.

When the Cripps' came to Utah their niece, Emily Milgate Obom, came with them. In a biography written years later she wrote the following, "Aunt Matilda was a fine lady, I loved her also, a true mother, and so happy to come to Utah, as we traveled by wagon to Fillmore and camped at night she sang the hymns around the campfire, she had a good alto voice, and was uncomplaining about any of the pioneer experiences she was called upon to pass through; and she had many while she lived.

"She was an heiress, and supposed to inherit a legacy from two sides of the family, I think, Izzard and Millgate. But she forfeited the opportunity to realize anything that may have been to her advantage by coming to Utah.. The father of Aunt Matilda was the village chorister, also a traveling musician, Aunt Emily and Aunt Matilda understood voice culture. " There is also a story about a Millgate fortune and a son being disinherited because he married the governess, but I have not been able to verity any of the story.

A short time before John's death in 1882 he and Matilda moved to the southeastern part of Fillmore in their

own home, he was sick for a few months before he passed away. Matilda came back and lived with her sister, Emily Millgate Ralph. She died 4 November 1894 and is buried in Fillmore.

Brief History of Jefferson WRIGHT

Jefferson Wright was bom 30 July 1825 to Asa Wright and Bathsheba Dadman in the state of Massachusetts. He was the third of six children, with brothers and sisters that spanned a twenty-year period. Jefferson was sixteen years old when his youngest sister, Emily, was bom; his mother 39 and his father 43 years old. The Wright family ancestors lived in and around Westford, Massachusetts for many decades. Many of the American Revolution took place in the area surrounding Westford.

One history states Jefferson had learned to "think for himself, leaving his father's home working "by the mouth since he was 15 ". If that is the case, we are not sure of Jefferson's place of residence during those years.

Jefferson and his older sister, Esther, apparently joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints about the same time in Lowell, Massachusetts and attended the Branch there. Jefferson's baptism date is listed as December 8 December 1845. The only other family member known to have joined the LDS faith was Esther... A couple of years after his baptism. Elder E.T. Benson, a newly called apostle, came on a mission to the East and called Jefferson to go on a mission with him. They traveled for a couple of months from Massachusetts to Philadelphia, then on to Nauvoo, across Iowa and finally to Winter Quarters arriving November 27, 1846. He lived with the Benson family and probably was soundly educated in the doctrine of the Church.

As the Saints started moving west Ezra Taft Benson was called to go with the first group, Jefferson stayed to help the Benson family members during his absence. During the summer of 1847, he met another New England convert, Miss Sarah Elizabeth Angell, 16, daughter of Solomon Angell, a General Authority, and Eunice Clark Young Angell. They courted amidst the hardships of Winter Quarters and married 12 December 1847.

The young couple had meager belongings, and thus drove one of Brigham Young's yoke of oxen to the Salt Lake Valley in 1848. Jefferson's journal states, "During the winter and summer the saints that staid at Winter Quarters suffered very much from hunger and sickness and many died. During the winter of 47 and 48 great preparations war made to move the saints to the Salt Lake Country the next season. I started on the 25 day of May in President Brigham Young Company to cross the plains then a barren unsettled wilderness with my wife and what little we had with one yoke of oxen to draw us along the thousand miles of parched and hartless plains. After much fatigue and hardship we reached the valley of the salt lake on the 21s t day of September 1848 and camped on the river Jordan". They traveled with Sarah's parents and grandmother, Phoebe Ann Morton Angell, age sixty-two, who with her daughter drove another of Brigham Young's teams. They were in the company of John and Rebecca Dalton, great grandfather to J. Lewis Dalton (author's father).

Sarah delivered their first child just two months after their arrival in the Valley, he lived just four days. A second son was bom a year later and he died after only one day. Finally a daughter, Sarah Ellen, was bom in 1850 and lived. They went on to have a total of fourteen children, two more died shortly after birth, so they raised ten children. Our ancestral line, Adaline, was the ninth child. Esther Wright, Jefferson's sister, married Francis Fletcher and Jefferson helped 'pilot' them into the Valley. In 1848 Jefferson received his patriarchal blessing (copy with S. Hart).

Jefferson cut lumber for their livelihood with Joseph Holbrook, Sarah's uncle, in Mill Creek Canyon. They sold the lumber and "coal wood" for 12 Va to 25 cents a bushel. But according to Holbrook, it was "not half enough to keep off hunger ".

December 21, 1850, the Wright family was called to go to on a mission to Parowan in Iron County. They did so, being listed as some of the original pioneers (along with other ancestors of ours). The little family is listed on the 1850 Census in both Salt Lake City and in Parowan. They were permitted to return to the Great Salt

Lake Valley on May 25, 1851 with President George A. Smith. It is not known why they returned.

By 1852 they were fulfilling another assignment to go to Brigham City and help settle that area. A Brigham City history states that on the 6th of October "William Davis had the first log house completed. The two second log houses to be completed were Jefferson Wright's and Benjamin Tolman 's." Although fairly close to Salt Lake, it was still the wild West and over 500 Shoshone Indians roamed the immediate area. Six of the Wright children were bom in Brigham City.

Jefferson was called to go on an Eastern United States mission and was set apart by John Taylor and Orson Hyde at the Tabernacle in Salt Lake City on 31 August 1854. He was probably gone a year or so, as his next son, Luman, was bom in May 1856. In March 1856 Jefferson was elected Treasurer of Box Elder County. He was also in the Box Elder Military (which included Cache and Box Elder Counties) the unit was organized under Jefferson's supervision. Martial law was declared at one time by Brigham Young, and preparations were made for war if necessary. As work on the Salt Lake Temple began, Jefferson worked in the Big Cottonwood quarry with his father-in-law, Solomon Angell, and his uncle^rruman Angell (architect of the SL Temple).

Suddenly their lives changed; during October Conference 1861, at the age of 36, Jefferson was called to settle another LDS community; this time it was Virgin City in Southern Utah. Again the Wrights went with two families from the Dalton side of the family, John Dalton and James Lewis - interesting coincidence, as two members of each family later married. The Wrights arrived in 1862 and were among the first to settle the area. They were advised by Brigham Young to stay close together until the Indian trouble could be settled. The first grist mill was built in Virgin City and Jefferson "was the first miller for this mill". "The day the mill started, everybody turned out to see the wonderful sight and taste the flour". The mill burned down about 1878-9.

Life was hard in Virgin, getting sufficient water for crops, then fighting major flooding which washed away farm land carried many hardships for the settlers. In 1865, Solomon and Eunice Angell (Sarah's parents) and their family moved to Southern Utah also. It was probably comforting to Sarah and Jefferson to have family nearby.

The law of Consecration was declared and on March 5, 1874, Jefferson was named as Vice President of the United Order for Virgin City Ward. After eighteen months that organization was dissolved and the United Order members again went to work for themselves. From June to September 1877 Jefferson served yet another mission to the eastern United States. His father died in April 1877, just a few months prior to his trip. Perhaps he had seen his family on his previous mission.

In the Virgin City records, Jefferson's name is recorded as part of the town's history. One time it mentions "Jefferson Wright, a 70 [a LDS Church position], was present at the meeting where Pres. McAllister gave instruction as to the necessity of brotherly love. They had a prayer circle after being appropriately dressed\ And on Jan 1, 1883, Jefferson is listed as one of the jurors in a case that resulted in a verdict of voluntary manslaughter. In a letter from St. George in 1888 written by J.W. McAllister, it is evident that Jefferson did family history and performed the ordinances at the St. George Temple.

Sarah was called to serve as a Counselor in the Relief Society in 1868 and served for twenty years in that calling. Her mother died in 1879 and her father in 1881. Jefferson and Sarah's last child was bom in 1884, and so would have been only twelve years old when Jefferson died. Most of their ten living children remained in Utah and were active in the LDS Church,

Jefferson died in 1896 at age seventy. He was buried in Virgin, Utah, but the graveyard was ploughed up and so no tombstone remains. Sarah lived another nine years after he died - until 1905. Jefferson was an honorable, noble man.

Comments:

Sarah experienced much of the early LDS Church history - living in Kirkland, Nauvoo, Winter Quarters, SLC, Brigham City, and eventually Southern Utah. She was an excellent cook, professional seamstress and tailor, Sarah decorated her home with hand made 'fancy work'. She was a member of the Presidency of the Relief Society in Virgin. Sarah also was skilled in the use of herbs and the 'art of nursing'. She reared a large family of seven daughters and three sons in Utah (four more children died as infants). She and her husband, Jefferson, helped colonize Brigham City, and then the Dixie Mission, and lived in harsh conditions with many hardships. To quote one source, "To answer such a call [to the Dixie Mission] was not an easy thing for men and women already established. This mission to Dixie required sacrifice, therefore, the leaders were careful in selecting the most sturdy character, courageous, thrifty, obedient, faithful and honest" The Angells and Wrights and Daltons and Meeks and Thorntons and Lewises - our ancestors - undoubtedly met that criteria9

Brief History of Sarah Elizabeth ANGELL

Sarah was bom in Providence, Rhode Island to Solomon Angell and Eunice Young. Bom in 1831, she was the oldest child in a family of eight children. She lived until age 3-4 in Rhode Island. Her parents joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints about 1833-4 and soon moved to Kirtland, Ohio. Her father was part of Zions Camp, and was called to be a General Authority in the First Quorum of the Seventies. They resided in Kirtland until the Saints were driven out, moving then to Muskingum, Ohio where they lived when she was about eight to twelve years of age. Solomon, her father then moved the family to Nauvoo, Illinois, where they lived until members of the Church were again driven out of the beautiful city they had built.

After leaving Nauvoo, the Latter-day Saints moved to Winter Quarters, Nebraska. It was probably there that she met, was courted, and married Jefferson Wright. Jefferson had been baptized a short time (Dec 1845), and proved to be a stalwart member of the Church. They were married 12 Dec 1847 at Winter Quarters.

The Wrights traveled with her parents and grandmother, Phebe Ann Angell, to the Salt Lake Valley arriving September 1848. Two months later Sarah had their first child, he lived only two months, perhaps because of the difficult journey across the plains. Two more children were bom in Salt Lake City, one living only one day. Two more children bom later also lived just a day. The fourth child was bom in Brigham City, Utah, a new development where Brigham Young asked several families to move to in 1851 -2. Records indicate that the Wrights had the second house built there. Five more children were bom while in Brigham City where they lived for the next eleven years.

21 December 1850 they were called to go to Iron County (Parowan). On the census for that year, Jefferson, Sarah and their daughter (Sarah), are listed in Salt Lake City - and in Iron County, Utah Territory (Parowan). They must have moved to Parowan and then moved back north to either Salt Lake City or Brigham City. They were permitted to return to the Great Salt Lake Valley May 25, 1851 with President George A. Smith.

On August 31,1854 Jefferson was set apart to serve a mission "in the vestry at the Tabernacle in GSL under the hands of Orson Hyde and John Taylor" (see blessing) to serve a mission to the Eastern States. Their sixth child was bom in May 1856, so the mission was probably for about a year. Sarah had to provide for then-family during his absence.

The next call to colonize came at October General Conference 1862. Again Jefferson and Sarah were asked to move, this time to Southern Utah to Virgin, Utah - the Dixie Mission, as it was called. Sarah was about 30 years old and they had seven living children. Their next child died soon after birth as did the twelfth child. A total of five were bom in Virgin, the last in 1884, twelve years after the prior child. It must have been somewhat a surprise, as Sarah was 52 years old by then!

Jefferson did not take a plural wife, Sarah was his only wife. He was a farmer and ran the grist mill in Virgin after her father and husband helped to build it. Sarah was "a very capable and industrious woman. She was an excellent cook and made the first beet sugar produced in Dixie. She was also an expert seamstress and tailored many suits for men as well as clothing for women and children. Her home was filled with "fancy work" that she had crocheted. Another accomplishment was her knowledge of the uses of herbs and the art of nursing the sick" Brigham Young asked her to make the first Utah state flag, which she did. In 1868 Sarah was called to be the Second Counselor in the female Relief Society organization in Virgin. She served in that capacity for twenty years, until 1888.

Her husband, Jefferson, died in 1896 after forty-nine years of marriage. Their youngest child was only 12 years old. By 1900 Sarah was living in Oasis, Millard, Utah; with her oldest daughter, Sarah, and her husband N. Ayers. Records indicate she died in Deseret, Millard, Utah in 1905 at the age of 72. Sarah Elizabeth was a faithful, obedient Saint that lived from the very early stages of the Mormon Church until after statehood and past the rum of the Century.

Comments:

So far the parents and place of birth for Henry Wood have evaded many, many hours of research. What information we do have indicates he was a prosperous land owner, having bought and sold property in Connecticut and then in Vermont.

He and Lucy were the parents of at least three children of record. He probably served in the Revolutionary War out of a Massachusetts Group. He died at the age of 68 in Vergennes, Addison, Vermont.

Brief History of Henry WOOD

We do not know where or to whom Henry was bom. The approximate date of his birth, 1752-3 comes from the age listed on his death certificate of 68 years in 1821. Many hours of research have been expended looking for his parents, even trips to Vermont and Connecticut - but to no avail.

Henry first shows up on our records on 9 Mar 1774 when he married Lucy Botsford in Newtown, Fairfield, Connecticut. Lucy came from a prominent family, probably quite well-to-do. Her grandfather, John Botsford, gave Lucy some land in 1775 in Newtown. It is assumed they lived in Fairfield and Litchfield Counties in Connecticut until they moved to Vergennes, Vermont about 1800-4.

Just nine months after Henry and Lucy were married they had a daughter, Anna (Aimer on the birth records). It shows she was bom 14 Dec 1774 in Newtown, Connecticut. Anna later married Tyler Reynolds. Henry had another daughter, Polly, who was bom 9 Oct 1776, right after the Revolutionary War began. Polly married Benjamin Warner. Both daughters also lived in Vermont in later years. The only other child we have record of is our line, Elisha Kent Wood. The Kent name comes from Lucy's ancestors, perhaps the Elisha is a clue to the Wood line. Based on Census records we estimate Elisha's birth between 1794-1800. And based on where the Woods lived, we think it was in Connecticut; however, on the 1900 and 1910 Census he states Vermont.

Henry was involved in several purchases and sales of property in Newtown and New Milford, Connecticut until 1802. He then bought some land and a house in Vergennes, Addison, Vermont, and the sale states "Henry Wood of Newtown, CT\ He is also listed on the 1800 census in Newtown, along with Lucy and probably Elisha Kent. After 1804 he appears to have lived in Vergennes, again buying land and appearing on the 1810 and 1820 census', still with Lucy and Elisha. His daughters also appear on Vermont censuses with their families in Vergennes and Ferrisburg, Addison County, Vermont.

On 16 Sep 1777, Henry, along with 47 other men of Newtown in "the Independent State of Connecticut" signed an "Oath of Fidelity", which showed that they were willing to sacrifice, in defense of principles set forth by the Declaration of Independence. Henry was a patriot! He may have been in the Revolutionary War for a short time from July to August 1780 in Capt. Bezaleel Taft's (9th) Co, Col Nathan Tyler's (3d Worcester Co.) Regt. the "Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors in the War of the Revolution" so states. Another military record also says that "he died in Vermont in 1821".

Another interesting discovery was one listed in the Litchfield, Connecticut history. The history refers to a religious group called the Jemimaites or Sandimans that followed a woman, Jemima Wilkinson. She was living in New Milford, Connecticut between approximately 1775 and 1789 at which time she left with some of her following. She had some peculiar beliefs. In a report regarding being taxed for the local congregations, a Henry Wood from New Milford is quoted as saying on the following on Feb 27, 1794. "This may certify that I the subscriber, Henry Wood, profess the doctrines, tenets, and mode of worship of that society of religious denominations known by the name of Sandimans or Glassites, and that I lawfully and voluntarily attend their public worship and contribute a proportional part for the support of said religion as far as the laws and rules of that society extend, as witness my hand. Henry Wood" Since our Henry Wood lived in New Milford at that time we suspect this is his statement. Perhaps some of the religious group of Sandimans were still in Connecticut.

Henry died, as stated, in 1821 in Vergennes, Vermont. His Will gave property to his wife and three children. In February 1823 there were several land transactions buying and selling between Elisha, Anna, Polly, Lucy and others. Henry was apparently successful financially. The deeds state that Elisha Kent was residing in "Carrolton, Greene, Illinois" at that time. Polly Warner was living in Vergennes, and Anna Reynolds in Ferrisburg. We do not know when or where Lucy passed away.

Hopefully, Henry's ancestors can be found before the Millennium!

Brief History of Lucy BOTSFORD

Lucy was bom 8 March 1758 in Newtown, Fairfield, Connecticut to Abiel Botsford and Abigail Kent. She apparently lived there until her marriage at the age of sixteen on 9 March 1774, also in Newtown. She married Henry Wood. He was five years older than Lucy, and perhaps a newcomer to the area; at least his origins have not been determined to date (2006).

The Botsfords were a well-to-do family that had helped found New Haven and later Newtown. They appear to be well-respected, as were the Kents on her mother's side of the family. They later named one of their children, Elisha Kent Wood (perhaps the Elisha is a clue to Henry's side of the family?).

Lucy's grandfather, John Botsford, gave her some land in 1775 in Newtown shortly after her marriage to Henry. They probably used this as a beginning to invest in future land both in Connecticut and later in Vermont. It is assumed they lived in Fairfield County until they moved to Vergennes, Vermont about 1803/4.

Just nine months after Henry and Lucy were married they had a daughter, Anna (Aimer on the birth records). It shows she was bom 14 Dec 1774 in Newtown. Another daughter, Polly, was bom there in 1777. Anna later married Tyler Reynolds, Polly married Benjamin Warner; and both daughters also lived in Vermont in later years. The only other child we have record of is our line, Elisha Kent Wood. Based on Census records we estimate his birth between 1794-1800. And based on where the Woods lived, we think it was in Connecticut. This would leave a 17 year gap between Polly's children, which is unlikely in that period of history. There were probably more, but we have not been able to locate them.

Henry was involved in several purchases and sales of property in Newtown and New Milford, Fairfield, Connecticut until 1802. He then bought some land and a house in Vergennes, Addison, Vermont, and the sale states "Henry Wood of Newtown, CT". He is also listed on the 1800 census in Newtown, along with Lucy and probably Elisha Kent. After 1804 they appear to have lived in Vergennes, again buying land and appearing on the 1810 and 1820 censuses, still with Lucy and Elisha. Their daughters also appear on Vermont censuses with their families in Vergennes and Ferrisburg, Addison County, Vermont.

By the time of Henry's death in 1821, there must have only been the above listed three children living as in his will he left his estate to Lucy, and his daughters Polly and Anna, and to his son, Elisha Kent.

We do not know where or when Lucy died, but assume she was buried in Vergennes, Vermont near her husband and where her daughters were living.

Brief History of William Eaton RUSSELL

William Eaton was bom in Vermont to Benjamin and Barsheba (Betsey) Eaton. William was the sixth of eleven children. William was bom 22 Nov 1785 in Addison County Vermont. His daughter, Emeline, later stated on the 1880 Census that her father (William Eaton) was bom in 'Massachusetts'.

William married Betsy Ann Hepburn, about 1805 in Vermont. Betsey was four years older than her husband, he was 20 and she was 24 years old when they married. They had at least two children: Emeline bom 6 Mar 1806, and Adaline who was bom July 1808 and died 20 Oct 1809 in Jericho, Vermont. Their little daughter was only 15 months old. Betsy died just five months later at the very young age of 29, on 1 Mar 1810 also in Jericho, Vermont. William had lost a daughter and wife and had a young daughter just four years old to raise. There may have been additional children based on Census records from 1800 and 1810.

William married again quite soon after Betsey's death. He married her sister, Myrtilla L. Hepburn, about June of 1810. She was 22 and he was 24 when they got married. About nine months later, Feb 1811 they had a daughter, Adeline Elizabeth Russell and then a year later, William Hepburn Russell bom 31 Jan 1812. Both were bom in Burlington, Vermont. William Hepburn Russell later was the founder of the Pony Express, and a very prominent personality throughout the United States.

Unfortunately William and Myrtilla's marriage lasted only two years before he died in military service. He left Myrtilla with Betsey's daughter, Emeline; as well as with the two young children he and Myrtilla had together. As stated, there may have been additional children.

It is not known when William joined the military, but on Betsey's tombstone at the Castle Cemetery in Jericho, Vermont is written, "Mrs. Betsey Russell the late beloved consort [wife] of Lieut. Wm Russell of this town, she departed this life March 1st AD 1810, in the 29 year of her age" We know therefore, that he was a Lieutenant in March of 1810. He was in the War of 1812 and commanded the land forces in the little battle of Lake Champlain. William was a Captain when he died as stated n his tombstone. His body was taken back to Burlington, Vermont for burial in 1814.

William became a 'freeman' in Jericho, Vermont Probate records of William Russell, dated 1814 in Jericho indicate that he apparently had five acres of land, but owed several people, including what appears to be his brothers - Chester, Benjamin, and Calvin Russell; as well as having a warrant on his Estate by Truman Barney. Thus, to quote a researcher, Beverly Parsons, "As with all young people life was eternal. So he left his family completely broke. The 5 acres of land he owned in Jericho was going to be sold to the highest bidder of which there was none, so the creditor he owed the most money to was going to take it in lieu of debt. However, this land too they found was not paid for and therefore reverted to the original owner." It should be remembered that William was a soldier and probably earned very little, if any, money from the government for his services. In the end this did not help his widow, Myrtilla, or his children.

Tradition says that" his body was brought back by Second Lt. Oliver C. Bangs of the United States Artillery. His acquaintance with Mrs. Russell ripened into love and they were married." At any rate they were married on Jan 1,1816 at Vergennes, Addison, Vermont, two years after William was killed.

William Eaton Russell died young as had his first wife. On his tombstone it says, "In memory ofCapt Wm. Russell who died 14 Jan 1814 aged 28 years and 2 months. A friend to all and liberal to the poor, He never turned a stranger from his door, had faith in God and Christ, believed them, and in the great Creator, put his trust" He was buried in Elmwood Cemetery, Burlington, Vermont.

So, we know that William was kind, generous, religious, patriotic, and a leader of men (Captain). A good record for such a short life.

Comments:

Another ancestor that died at a very young age. Betsey was only 29 years old when she died, leaving at least one child, Emeline Russell - our line, at the age of four years old. Her husband, William Eaton Russell, was a soldier, and died just four years after Betsey passed away. After Betsey's death, William married Betsey's sister (Myrtilla Hepburn). Myrtilla raised Emeline.

Settle, Stanford Univ. Press. From Lexington, Mo. Library; "Genealogical and Family History of New York," Vol 2, pp 755-757, Census 1800 Vermont

Brief History of Betsey Ann HEPBURN

Very little is known about Betsey Ann Hepburn. It took years of research to find her and her parents. She was bom in New York according to the "Genealogical and Family History of New York" in 1782. She was the fourth of twelve children. Her parents Joseph Hepburn and Hannah Lobdell both came from Fairfield County, Connecticut and were married there. Betsey's three older brothers were also bom in Connecticut. It appears the family moved to New York about 1781, shortly before Betsey was bom. The next two children after her were bom in New York; and then her sister, Mrytilla, which some records state was bom in Addison County, Vermont. (?). If so the family moved back to New York after her birth and had three more children there - and then moved to Middlebury, Addison, Vermont - where the two youngest children were bom. In 1880 her daughter confirms Betsey's birthplace as New York

At any rate, she spent most of her youth in New York. One record says the family lived for "many years in Hotchisstown (now Westville) a suburb of New Haven, CT". That was probably before Betsey was bom based on the birth places of her brothers and sisters.

She married William Eaton Russell about 1805 in Vermont. She would have been 24 years or younger, he was only 20. They had two children bom in Vermont. Emeline 'Marcia' (named after one of her sisters) bom 1806 in Jericho, Chittenden, Vermont; and Adaline bom in Bridgeport, Addison, Vermont in 1808. Adaline's 'big' sister, Emeline, would have been two years old when she was bom. Adaline died when she was 15 months old in 1809 in Jericho, Vermont where she is buried. It is possible they had more children as they were married at least from 1805 to 1810, the time of Betsey's death.

William was in the military in 1810 as a Lieutenant and was a Captain when he died in 1814. It is thought he died during a battle he commanded in a battle of Lake Champlain. Betsey was probably a soldier's wife, with William being gone often. Perhaps that is why her daughter, Adaline was bom in Bridgeport, Vermont. Did she go there to be near family at the birth of her daughter. At one time William had 5 acres of land, Betsey and then Myrtilla must have cared for the land when he was gone.

Betsey's cause of death is unknown She died in Jericho, Vermont. She passed away just five days before her daughter Emeline's fourth birthday and five months after the death of her daughter, Adaline. Her tombstone reads: "Sacred to the memory of Mrs. Betsey Russell the late beloved consort of Lieut. Wm Russell of this town, she departed this life March 1st AD 1810, in the 29 year of her age. Here solemn death its wasting captive keeps while friendship mourns and kind affection weeps. Here numerous virtues in painful day shone brighter as she sunk to kindcid (?) day." She is buried in the Castle Cemetery, formerly Church Street Cemetery, the cemetery is in the first section of Jericho, Vermont.

Brief History of John BADCOCK

Very little is known about John Badcock. He was bom in either Wendy or Abbington Piggots, Cambridge, England on 15 May 1785. His parents were Moses and Sarah (Abbiss) Badcock.

He married Elizabeth *Jackens (Jenkins) in 1804 and they had six children. He and Elizabeth were married in Tadlow, Cambridge. They lived in Wendy, Cambridge where three of their children were bom. They then moved to Croydon, Cambridge where their fourth, fifth and sixth children were bom. It is not known how long they lived there. Croydon is only three or four miles from Wendy and Abbington Piggots. It had a population of about 500 in 1880.

John died in 1845.

*Note: We have not been able to find the ancestry of Elizabeth Jackens. I wonder if he married Elizabeth 'Jackson'. A last name prevalent in town records.

Brief History of Elizabeth JACKENS

Elizabeth's ancestry is unknown. I wonder if her last name is 'Jackens', I think it may be 'Jackson', but some research hasn't connected her with the John Jackson who married Sarah Elsom whose daughter, Mary Jackson married DeGrass Webb in Litlington. Perhaps our Mary was a cousin or sister or ... ???

What we do know is that John Badcock married Elizabeth Jackens in 1804 and they had six children. He and Elizabeth were married in Tadlow, Cambridge, England. They lived in Wendy, Cambridgeshire where three of their children were bom. They then moved to Croydon, Cambridgeshire where their fourth, fifth and sixth children were bom. It is not known how long they lived there. Croydon is only three or four miles from Wendy and Abbington Piggots. It had a population of about 500 in 1880.

It may be assumed that Elizabeth is from Tadlow because that is where they married.

John died in 1845. It is not known when Elizabeth died or where.

Comments:

This couple had twelve (12) children, Mary (our line) being the oldest. All twelve children were born in Royston and Litlington, Cambridge, England. The surname Webb identifies a weaver, common in Southern England. The name Degrass is of unknown origin, and may have been a nickname.

Their daughter, Mary, and five other siblings joined the LDS Church. Mary immigrated to Utah when she was about 70 years old. Through Martha Campkin Young, came Elder L. Tom Perry, an Apostle of the Lord.

The "Webb Family", Jul 1976, compiled by Gay P. Kowallis, Privately printed., 1841 Litlington Census, marriage cert, from Litlington, Birth and Christening records from Litlington.

Brief History of DeGrass WEBB

DeGrass Webb's parents were William [DeGrass] Webb (b. 1745) and Hannah Izard (b. 1747) both from Guilden Morden a little village about four miles from Litlington. DeGrass was the seventh of twelve children, and was bom 6 Jul 1784 in Litlington, Cambridge, England. The name DeGrass was probably a nickname for his father, which he carried out when he named his son.

In October of 1804 at the age of 21, DeGrass Webb of Litlington, Cambridge married Mary Jackson of Buckford, Hertfordshire, England. (Note: Marriage banns in Litlington say she was from Litlington.) All of their twelve children were bom in Litlington, except William, which records state was bom in Royston in 1806, although he was baptized in Litlington.

Less than seven months after their marriage Mary gave birth to Mary Webb, then she had a child every year or two until 1831 when Jonathan was bom. Three years later her husband died; he was 50 years old. Mary was left to raise at least five of the youngest children.

DeGrass Webb was listed as a farm laborer on Mary's death certificate. He died 1 May 1843 in Litlington, Cambridge, England. Mary Jackson Webb lived until 1872, almost 30 years longer.

Note: One of their daughters, Martha (who married first Issac Campkin and then Thomas Young) had a daughter Fanny Young who married a Perry. From that Perry came one of the apostles in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, L. Tom Perry.

Comments:

Mary outlived her husband some 38 years. She would have had at least five children at home to raise by herself. In addition, it appears from the Census records she helped raise two of her daughter, Mary's children. In 1841 she was working as a laundress.

She was born when Hertford, England was going through its change from agriculture to an industrial county. A typical laborer in 1790 fed his family by buying, weekly, foods including: 8 loaves of bread, 2 lbs. each of cheese, butter, sugar and 2 oz of tea, % lb each of bacon and oatmeal and milk. (A tough life.) It appears most male children (and many females) were apprenticed laborers.

Census from Litlington 1841,1851,1861; Parish register entries from Litlington, Cambs, England; The "Webb Family" July 1976, compiled by Gay P. KowaUis. Printed privately

Brief History of Mary JACKSON

The Webb family, namely Gay Kowallis, has compiled many records from Litlington, Cambridge, England about Mary Jackson and her family.

Mary was bom in Buckland, Hertford, England to John Jackson (christened 16 Mar 1780 in Buckland, Hertford, England) and Sarah Elsom (bom 3 Nov 1759 in Buckland, Hertford, England, died 7 Jan 1791 in Buckland, Hertford.). They were married 11 Nov 1784 and Mary was bom two years later, 29 March 1786 in Buckland, Hertford. She had at least two other siblings; Martha Jackson and Sarah Jackson (twins) who were bom on Christmas Day 1788.

Sarah, Mary's mother, died in 1791 when Mary was less than five years old and her sisters three years of age. We don't know of any re-marriage on her father's part.

In October of 1804 at the age of 18, Mary married DeGrass Webb of Litlington, Cambridge, England, and moved there where she spent the remainder of her life. All of their twelve children were bom in Litlington. Less than seven months after her marriage, Mary gave birth to a daughter, Mary Webb; then she had a child every year or two until 1831 when Jonathan was bom. Three years after Jonathan was bom, her husband died; he was 50 years old. Mary was left to raise at least five of the youngest children. She also helped raise two of her daughter Mary's children who were bom out of wedlock.

The England census for 1841 states her occupation as a 'Laundress'. She was living with her daughter Mary (our line) and sons and daughters - William, James, Thomas, Emma, Hannah and Jonathan. Also living with them were two other boys: Edward bom 1843, and Stephen bom 1840. They were the "base bom" sons of Mary, her daughter. In 1851 Mary [Jackson] was living with her son William who was listed as 'head of household', and his wife (or perhaps James' wife) Lydia. Also living there were two of Mary's [Jackson] son - James and Jonathan, and grandsons - Edward and Stephen. She is listed as a 'pauper' age 63 (should be 65).

The 1861 Cambridge census lists Mary as 'head of household', age 76 'widow'. Living with her are sons William, and Jonathon; a grandson, Stephen; her daughter, Emma (a widow), and Emma's two children (Harridence). In 1871 Mary is living with just her grandson, Stephen, who is unmarried at age 34. Mary is listed as 'grandmother' and 'widow' age 83.

Our records indicate that Mary Webb (daughter) and other members of her family including siblings Sarah, James, Martha, and Emma all joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The dates are sometimes uncertain, but we know Martha joined the Church in 1844. Perhaps all of them became members at that time. It is not known if Mary [Jackson] Webb joined the Church in her lifetime or not. Her Temple work was done for her 14 March 1877 in Utah.

Mary's death is recorded in Royston, County of Cambridge as passing away in Litlington 21 Dec 1872 at 88 years of age, having lived 38 years as a widow. She was 'senile' at that time.

Note: An index card to Temple records lists Stephen Webb, chr. 1 Dec 1839; buried 18 Oct 1849. Mother is Mary Webb, no father is given. This death date is obviously in error as he was still on the census with Mary in 1861.

Comments:

Very little is known of Edward Cripps. He married Lydia Johncock and we have records of thirteen children. Certified birth records of their son, Edward, and daughter, Mary Ann; as well of John - our ancestor, are in possession of a Cripps relative. On the IGI LDS Church there are three separate options of parents for William Cripps, Edward's father. I have not added them to my records as they are inconclusive.

A family group sheet is included for the children of Edward Cripps and Lydia Johncock.

In notes in the Cripps family book under "Handful of Turf", reference is made to records being located and temple work being done. Perhaps additional records exist for this family. (Further research needs to be done)

A brief History of Edward CRIPPS

Edward was bom in Harty, Kent, England in 1785 to William Cripps and Mary Cheeseman.

On 7 Nov 1807 at the age of twenty-two he married Lydia Johncock in Oare, Kent, England. They moved to, or already lived in, Leysdown, Kent, England by 1808, as that is where their first son was bom, Edward. He lived only a short while. They had a total of thirteen children, all bom and christened in Leysdown. Leysdown Parish records confirm the information on the family group sheet.

Our line comes through the third child, John B. Cripps. He was bom in 1814 and subsequently joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Records state he was baptized in November 1879. He came to America and settled in Fillmore, Millard, Utah. Information about the other children of Edward and Lydia is not known.

The death date of Edward Cripps is not known, but it is thought to be about 1851 and it is presumed he is buried in Leysdown.

A brief History of Lydia JOHNCOCK

Lydia was bom in Oare, Kent, England to Edward Johncock and Sarah Barber. She was christened on 15 May 1791.

At the age of sixteen she married Edward Cripps in Oare. It was probably at that time they moved to Leysdown, Kent, England. Edward, a son, was bom to the young couple a few months after their marriage (7 November 1807). The child died young. However, Lydia and Edward had twelve more children. All were bom and christened in Leysdown.

It is not known when her husband, Edward, died. Lydia died in 1837 at the age of 46. Her youngest child was only two years old, with several others that were very young. It is unknown who took care of the children after her death.

One son, John B.Cripps, joined the LDS Church and shortly before his death, he immigrated to the United States, and resided in Utah.

Lydia and Edward's temple work was done for them in 1938 in the St. George Temple.

In notes in the Cripps family book under "Handful of Turf \ reference is made to records being located and temple work being done. Perhaps records exist for this family.

Brief History of Jeremiah MILLGATE (MILGATE or MILGEAT)

Jeremiah was bom to Jeremiah and Mary (Evendon or E. Vendon) Millgeat (Milgate) in 1796 in Leysdown on the Isle of Sheppy in Kent, England. Apparently he lived there until his marriage to Ann Reader on 17 April 1817 in Eastchurch, Kent, England. He and Ann moved to Boughton Under Blean, Ann's hometown, by the time of their first child's birth. Matilda Izzard (Izzard being her mother's maiden name) was bom on 5 Jul 1819.

One of the Cripp's records says Jeremiah was a 'traveling musician' and also the 'town chorister'. If so that may account for some of the moves the family made. They moved from Boughton to Leysdown and then to Minster. From there they moved to Harty where they lived for five years and then back to Leysdown where their youngest child was bom, Jesse (a son) in 1838. Jeremiah and Ann had a total of eleven children. They lost two children - the second and third bom to them - when they were two and one year old.

Church records indicate that Jeremiah joined the LDS Church 1 Feb 1852 and that his wife, Ann, was baptized 27 May 1850. Some of their children (Sarah, Jesse, Matilda, Emily, William, ?) also joined and some later went to the United States.

There is a story in the Cripps book that probably doesn't have any validity based on the fact that the ancestral family has been found (which the early researchers said couldn't be done). But the story was repeated in the family frequently enough to indicate some facts were probably accurate. The information comes from a cousin, Emily Millgate Obom, who traveled from England with John Cripps and his wife Matilda Izzard Stringham Cripps when they came to Zion. It is detailed in the Heritage - Cripps-Millett family history book.

"The oldest Jeremiah [Millgate] on the line was disinherited because of the marriage with the French governess of the family, so if they could have a governess they must have been somewhat wealthy. Alvoretta Robinson, who is a descendent of Sarah Ann Elizabeth told this: The father said, 'There's a mill and here's a gate, you can take the name of Millgate' and he sent his son out and disinherited him.

"Aunt Gussie said, her father (who is Jesse [son of Jeremiah and Ann Reader Millgate] used to tell a story that was told by his Grandfather to Jeremiah. Jeremiah remembers as a small boy that his father, also Jeremiah, took him to a beautiful mansion in the London area. As they waited by the gate, the Royalty came out in a beautiful carriage and his father told him, 'That is your Grandfather'. Aunt Jessie told me, her father told her, that his Grandfather (Jeremiah) related to him that he was the young boy standing at the gate of an estate - with his own father who had been disinherited - and watched the Grandfather ride in a grand carriage.

"Maggie Protease, also a descendent of Sarah Ann Elizabeth, told me, 'The disinherited son had gone to the Isle of Sheppy to work herding sheep and he had his young son with him. One day they saw this grand carriage and went to the iron gate of a beautiful estate and saw them. It was his father who would not acknowledge him, and he turned to his young son and said, 'That's the only time you will see your grandfather'.'

"Loretta 's mother also told her, "That her own grandmother used to go and stand by the gate of the mansion and say, 7 should have been royalty'. "

An interesting story, but it may also help with future genealogical research at some time in the future.

Jeremiah Millgate died Nov 1865 in Faversham, Kent, England and is buried at St. Mary's Church there. His wife, Ann, died ten years later; also in Faversham.

Brief History of Ann Izzard Reader

Ann Izzard Reader was bom to Thomas Reader and Elizabeth Izzard in 1797 in Boughton Under Blean, Kent, England. Apparently she lived there until she was married to Jeremiah Millgate 17 April 1817 in Faversham, East Church, Kent.

They moved quite a lot, about every four years, but all towns within a close distance to one another on the Isle of Sheppy in beautiful Kent, England. Jeremiah and Ann had a total of eleven children, two of which died as infants, and one as a teenager. One record says that her husband, Jeremiah, had a 'cultured voice' and was a traveling musician.

In 1850 Ann was baptized into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, probably in Faversham or Leysdown. It was about a year and a half before Jeremiah joined. Several of their children also became members and some immigrated to the United States, including our line, Matilda Izzard Millgate Stringer Cripps.

Ann was given her mother's maiden name, as was customary, but it is interesting that the name "Izzard" was also given to one of Ann and Jeremiah's daughters—Matilda. Possibly it was a prominent name and was prestigious. One record says that when Matilda joined the Church and went to America, she gave up her 'inheritance'.

Jeremiah died in Faversham in 1875 and ten years later Ann died there also. Several of their children moved to America; including Matilda who came to Utah in 1879, four years after her mother's death. However, six years prior to her emigration, she and her husband, John Cripps, sent their only son (Edward) to go to Zion (Utah).

Ann Reader Millgate is buried at St. Mary's Church in Faversham near her husband.

Brief History of Asa WRIGHT

Asa was raised in Westford, Middlesex County in Massachusetts. He came from a family that had resided in that immediate vicinity since at least 1600. Wright is an old New England name associated with many other prominent names in that area. His parents, Asa and Betsy (Patch) Wright, were from that part of Massachusetts as well. Asa was the sixth of seven children bom to his parents - all of which were bom in Westford.

On 23 July 1820 Asa married Bathsheba Dadman in his hometown of Westford. They lived there until after the birth of their first child, Edee P. Wright; and then moved to Groton for at least three years where two of their six children were bom - Esther and Jefferson. Three more children were later bom in Westford, indicating they moved back there by 1831. The birth dates of the children are spread out about every 5-6 years, it is possible that there were other children that were stillborn or died young.

His wife, Rathsheh?^ came, frnm a nearby town of Littleton^ Massachusetts.- Asa was ?,1 years old when he marrie4 an4 Bathsheba was 18.

Two of their children, Esther and Jefferson (our line), were baptized into the Mormon religion and moved to Utah, Jefferson joined the Church in 1844, and was married at Winter Quarters in 1847. Asa would have been 49 years old at that time. There is no knowledge that Asa ever joined the LDS Church, but Jefferson was on a mission with Apostle E.T. Benson in Massachusetts and they may have attempted to convert Asa and Bathsheba. It is not known when Esther joined.

In 1877 Jefferson served yet another mission to the Eastern United States. His father, Asa, died in April 1877, just a few months prior to his trip. His mother, Bathsheba, had died nine years earlier, so Jefferson probably didn't see his parents after 1844. He did a lot of temple work at the St. George Temple - undoubtedly his parent's work was done for them by Jefferson and his wife, Sarah.

Asa was buried at the Wright Cemetery in Westford, Massachusetts.

Brief History of Bathsheba DADMAN

Bathsheba was bom shortly after the turn of the century—in 1802 in Littleton, Middlesex, Massachusetts. Her parents, Joseph and Betsey (Pike) Dadman, came from surrounding towns, namely Framingham and Hopington. Bathsheba's ancestors lived in this New England area for decades.

Joseph and Betsey Dadman were parents of nine children of record; Bathsheba was the sixth of the nine. Census records from Littleton* Middlesex, Massachusetts in 1840 indicate they had ten children at the time the census was taken. The other child or children are unaccounted for at this time. Bathsheba's mother, Betsey, had her oldest child at age twenty and her youngest at age forty-five years of age. The last four children were bom in Littleton.

When Bathsheba was 18 years old she married Asa Wright who was four years older than her. They were married in Westford, Massachusetts and then moved to Groton where two of their children were bom; but returned to Westford by 1831. Records indicate that these six children lived to be adults, but it may be that Bathsheba had additional children as there are several years between children.

Two of her children, Esther and Jefferson (our line) joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and immigrated to Utah with the rest of the Mormons. Jefferson left home when he was about fifteen, but probably saw his parents again while on a mission to Massachusetts in 1844. It may have been at that time that his sister, Esther, joined the Church. She was living in that area, had a baby in 1845, and by 1848 was in Omaha, Nebraska where she had her fourth child. Another was bom in Kanesville, Iowa and the last in 1853 in Salt Lake City. Jefferson arrived in Salt Lake valley in 1848 and by 1853 was living in Brigham City, Utah. He was probably happy to see his sister when she arrived in Utah. Although Jefferson served another mission to the Eastern United States, he did so after his mother and father had died. Bathsheba and Asa probably never saw Jefferson after he left for the West, nor did they see Esther and their grandchildren after about 1846.

Bathsheba continued to live in Westford, Massachusetts where she passed away in October 1868. She is buried in the Wright Cemetery.

Note: In one of the histories above referred to, this statement is made regarding one of his wives: "Solomon took his two wives and families to [Ephraim], a distance of 150 miles. He left Anna there and took Lucy Decker his wife with him to SLC. Solomon had four wives at one time but he was divorced from Lucinda Hutchings ". This may have been where the information of Lucy Decker as a wife came from. Is it possible?

Brief History of Solomon ANGELL

There are several sources of information on Solomon Angell, with several variations on dates, children, etc. The following is the summary we best felt depicted his life.

Solomon was bom to James William Angell and Phebe Ann Morton on 21 April 1806 in Florence, Oneida, New York. Thomas Angell was the first Angell immigrant to America - arriving in 1631. He and Roger Williams were on the same boat and were cousins. "Roger Williams was a clergyman of the Church of England and he disagreed violently with some of the Puritan beliefs, chiefly on the question of religious liberty. So insistent was he on the issue of the separation of church and state that the government banished him and Thomas Angell in 1635. They went to Rhode Island, where in 1636 they, with ten friends, founded the capital city of Providence." ("An Enduring Legacy - Solomon Angell", pg 356/ Solomon came from a religious background.

Regarding the 'Angell' ancestry, one genealogist states, "lam one of those rare mortals who can prove lineage from the celestial realm". The records indicate Thomas Angell's line includes many kings and queens from Scotland, England, etc.

Back to Solomon's parents; James and Phebe had marital problems. To quote their son, Truman O. Angell, "Family difficulties occurred, which caused a separation of my parents [in 1815-6 - Solomon being 9-10 years old]... my mother having seven children to support, and nothing but her hands for her fortune, it can be seen that means of commencing an education were very limited; what I have received was gotten in winter schools, and very little at that. " (We assume Solomon had the same education).

Continuing Truman's account of his childhood, "When I was about 9 years old [Solomon four years older would have been about thirteen in 1819], my father returned to his family" Eight years later [1827] Truman mentions living "in the neighborhood of my father's residence" for a couple of years. It appears Phebe and James were separated again and again. In 1833 Truman took Phebe to live with him "to be near her kinfolk who resided at China (later Java), Genesee, New York". In 1823 Phebe and James' daughter Abigail died, in 1829 a son, James, died; and then two more sons passed away in 1830 - Hiram and Washington. Another daughter also died young - Phebe Ann. Only five out often children outlived their mother and father. They were, of course, Solomon's siblings. Truman wrote, "Her [Phebe's] trials were truly great; she almost sank under them; but my sympathies were with her"

The children left home early in life to make their own way. It is not known when Solomon left Providence, but he married his first love, Eunice Clark Young, in nearby Gloucester, Rhode Island on 13 April 1828, a few days before turning twenty-two. Eunice was eighteen. Their first child, Sarah Elizabeth, was bom 24 February 1832 in Providence, Rhode Island, followed one year later by Alma Truman who was bom in Java (previously China), Genesse, New York. Six more children (that we are aware of) followed with the last three children dying after the exodus from Nauvoo, probably in Winter Quarters or on the plains.

Solomon's mother, Phebe Ann, heard about the restored gospel of Jesus Christ from her daughter, Mary Ann Angell (who later married Brigham Young). On Sunday, 7 Jan 1832, Phebe Ann Morton Angell was baptized in Warsaw, New York. Solomon and Eunice were baptized on that same date according to later Endowment House records. They were probably the first in our lineage to become members of The Church of Jesus Christ. Phebe's daughter, Mary Ann, had been baptized a week before. All had read the Book of Mormon and believed it to be true. A week or so later, a meeting was held at Phebe's home in China, New York, as well as one at Joseph Holbrook's home (he was a nephew of Phebe and James). It is possible that Solomon and Eunice attended those meetings as they were living nearby.

Only a month later, on 24 February 1832, Eunice gave birth to their first child in Providence, Rhode Island.

Their second was bom in Java, Genesse, New York on 12 Jan 1833. April 1834 they and their two children joined with Joseph Holbrook to move to Kirtland, Ohio "the land of Zion" to live with the Mormons, An excerpt from an autobiography of Solomon's youngest sister, Caroline, states, "I left with my parents, Providence^ the place of my birth when I was six years old. The next month after I left there we traveled by steam and canal boats to Buffalo; hence to China, now called Java, in New York State. There I, with the rest of my family, first heard the gospel, and all that was there joined the Church but me, I being only seven years of age. In February 1837 [Note: Solomon and his family were already in Kirtland] we moved to Kirtland, State of Ohio, the first gathering place of the Saints. There I became acquainted with Prophet Joseph and his father, mother, brothers, sisters, and his wife Emma. "

Shortly thereafter, in May 1834, Solomon joined the brethren that comprised Zion's Camp. This group was led by the Prophet Joseph Smith to go to Missouri and help the Saints there who were suffering persecution at the hands of a mob. That purpose of the trip was not achieved, but many future leaders emerged as a result of their sacrifice, obedience and teachings from the Prophet. After the camp was disbanded, Solomon returned to the Kirtland area, where the following year in 1835, he was ordained a Seventy and called into the first 70's Quorum organized, the First Quorum of the Seventy, a presiding quorum of the Church. Thus he entered the ranks of the General Authorities.

Solomon purchased land in Kirtland from Brigham Young where the family lived for a few years; his son John Osbom was bom there in January 1837. The Church headquarters were in Kirtland, and the Prophet Joseph and other leaders lived there. During 1837 an economic crisis occurred which forced many banks, including the Mormons' bank, to close and savers lost their money. Dissention within and without the Church occurred. The Church Presidency were forced to relocate to Far West, Missouri. The other Saints were driven out of Kirtland also. There were also severe problems in Missouri and persecution continued throughout 1837-38, until the Saints living there were driven out after an extermination order from the Governor.

It appears Solomon and Eunice chose to live in Muskingum County, Ohio for a few years as two of their children were bom there (Albert - 1839 and Mary - 1842). There are no records showing the family lived in Missouri. Truman, his brother, and his mother did live in Far West. Phebe Ann Angell was a midwife and assisted in the birth of Joseph Fielding Smith, future President of the Church, a son of Hyrurn and Mary Fielding Smith while living in Far West.

In 1839 the Latter-day Saints began to gather in Commerce (Nauvoo), Illinois. At first there was great sickness but eventually Nauvoo became the "City Beautiful' - as the name implies. There were thousands of Mormons living in or around Nauvoo, and more came daily as Europeans were converted and came to Zion. The Angells continued to live in Zanesville, Muskingum, Ohio until at least 1842 (Mary Angell was bom there in November 1842). It is not certain when the family lived in Nauvoo, but family histories indicate Solomon helped build the Nauvoo Temple, so we assume they moved there about 1843-44. He was also in the Nauvoo Legion. It was in June of 1844 that the Prophet Joseph and his brother, Hymm were killed in Carthage, Illinois. Family histories say that Solomon and Eunice saw the transfiguration of Brigham Young when he spoke to the Saints about the Twelve Apostles assuming leadership of the Church (as opposed to Sidney Rigdon).

Again, the Saints were driven from their homes in the midst of winter, crossing the Mississippi in freezing weather. We next hear of Solomon and his family in Winter Quarters. Sarah Elizabeth was married on 12 December 1847 to Jefferson Wright, she was fifteen years old. It was a bitter, hard winter, many died; perhaps even one or more of the youngest Angell children who died before 1850. Brigham Young asked Solomon, his brother-in-law, to watch over his [Brigham's] wives when Brigham took the first wagon train across the plains in 1847. Solomon agreed to do so, thus delaying his own journey to the Salt Lake Valley for a year.

Solomon built his own wagon and they arrived in Salt Lake City in September 1848 in Brigham's Second Company. Solomon was 43, Eunice 39, Alma, their oldest son, was 15; John 10; Albert 8; Mary 6. Sarah Elizabeth arrived with her new husband. The Angells lived in Salt Lake City until 1866. They built a home

located on the comer of 3rd South and 3rd East in Salt Lake City. Some of the homes had one long room in which dances were held; the Angell home was one of those. He was also a iMinuteman> and on the SLC police force.

Solomon and Francis Fletcher helped to open the first granite ledge in Cottonwood canyon where granite was cut to build the Salt Lake Temple. Solomon was in charge of cutting the stones according to the specifications given him by his brother, Truman Osbom, who was the Church Architect. Solomon was considered a master workman in the carpentry trade; he was able to read and work from blueprints, sketches and drawings and worked closely with his Truman in the actual construction of the buildings that Truman did the architectural work for (which were many in the Salt Lake Valley). Later when the constmction of the Salt Lake temple began, five years after his arrival in the Salt Lake Valley, Solomon worked on the temple. He actually hauled the temple's comer-stone from the quarry to its existing location! Because of Solomon's ability to plan, organize and direct work, for the next 15 years he was one of the foremost carpenters in charge of many different facets in the temple constmction.

Solomon accepted and practiced plural marriage, as did most leaders in the Church. On 6 or 26 November 1853 he married Lucy Ann Fry in Salt Lake City, she died shortly after their marriage. Sometime later he married Lucinda Clark Hutchings (her second marriage after a divorce). They were sealed 15 Jul 1857 but later separated, she stayed in Salt Lake City when Solomon moved to Southern Utah. His last wife was Anna Cajsa Johanson whom he married 31 Oct 1863, and had sealed to him 31 Oct 1863. [Note: Some records state he was also married to Lucy Ann Decker - 1 don't think this is so, she married William Seeley and then Brigham Young.]

In 1863 Solomon and his families were called to help colonize Southern Utah. Eunice and Anna and their children moved to Long Valley, Utah in 1865, where they lived in tents for quite some time. Indians drove them away and with great difficulty they finally found a sheltered, safe place to live and called it Pocketville (later Virgin City). Rains washed down over the mountains into their homes throughout the winter. The dampness caused Eunice to become very ill, and she was bedfast the last ten years of her life. She died on 8 February 1879 in Leeds.

The Angells also lived in Virgin where Solomon helped complete the gristmill. In addition, they helped settle Tocquerville, Harrisburg and Leeds. Solomon built houses of rocks. In Leeds he built a two-story home and made all the furniture for it. He was also the blacksmith in town and the dentist, and made coffins for the

dead. He made his own children's shoes, he planted gardens and orchards and brewed beer and made wine to sell. He had a big bass horn which he blew crossing the plains calling the Saints to meetings.

Solomon was called and set apart by Erastus Snow as Presiding Elder of Leeds Ward 9 May 1869. Indians would come into their home and beg for food, leaving lice which required hard work to comb them out of the children's hair. Brigham Young said it was easier to feed the Indians than to fight them, and encouraged the Saints to befriend them. President Young often stayed with the Angells when he came to Dixie. The children went to school three months of the year.

Much of this information was taken from an account of a daughter of William Henry Angell, brother of George Edward Angell. In conclusion, she states, "Solomon was an old man [age 59!] when he was called to go to Dixie and had suffered much during his life for the want of the necessities and comforts of life, but he ever bore a strong testimony of the Gospel and lived it to the best of his knowledge. He died 20 April 1881 among his family and was buried in Leeds Cemetery. "

Anna, his fourth wife, was a counselor in Relief Society, a Primary President and a mid-wife. She had a daughter, Edith, who became a bedridden invalid from an illness. Anna died 18 May 1914.

Lucinda finished raising her three youngest children. Records indicate after (Saul) her youngest child married in 1885 she lived alone (in Spanish Fork?) until 1905.

Lucy Ann Fry died after 1860 (on Salt Lake 1860 Census). Lucy Caroline was probably her child.

Comments:

One of our first ancestors to Join The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (1832), Eunice experienced almost all of the early Church history. She and her husband, Solomon, lived in Kirtland, Nauvoo, Winter Quarters, Salt Lake City, and then pioneered Southern Utah. She was an eye witness with her husband to a spiritual manifestation that the "mantle" of Joseph Smith had fallen upon Brigham Young and the voice heard was that of Joseph Smith assuring the Saints that he (Brigham Young) should be the next prophet and leader of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Brigham Young was her brother-in-law, having married Solomon's sister, Mary Ann Angell.

Her first three children died 1844-1847 and were buried along the roadside as they traveled with the Saints. She was also left alone often as her husband left for days responding to callings and other activities. Solomon took three more wives in compliance with direction from Church leaders, Eunice being the senior wife. Another remarkable woman in the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Brief History of Eunice Clark YOUNG

Eunice was bom to Nathan Young and Sarah Whitman in Gloucester, Providence, Rhode Island. They were the great-grandparents of President Harry S. Truman. Her ancestors can be traced to one of the Mayflower pilgrims, Stephen Hopkins (1581-1644), who was her 11th great-grandfather. Based on a census and on temple endowment records, we place her birth to be 23 November 1809. Most of her history is taken from the activities of her husband, one of the first general authorities of the restored Church.

Solomon and Eunice were married on 13 April 1828, she was 19 years old, Solomon 21. They lived in or near Providence, Rhode Island for the first few years of their marriage, then moved to Java, New York until 1834.

The Angells were introduced to a new religion about 1831 and embraced the gospel. Original Temple records state Eunice's date of baptism as 7 Jan 1832. She and her husband, Solomon Angell, were baptized on the same day. Sarah Elizabeth, our ancestor, was bom a month later on 24 February 1832. The water they were baptized in was undoubtedly very cold in January, and she was eight months pregnant! Solomon and Eunice also received their endowments at the same time, 25 February 1851 in Salt Lake City at the Endowment House. The work for Eunice was done by Jemima Young and E. Ann Whitney. She received her patriarchal blessing in 1836 at Kirtland, Ohio from Joseph Smith, Sr. (copy in file).

Their first child, Sarah Elizabeth, was bom in Providence, Rhode Island; followed one year later by Alma Truman who was bom in Java (previously China), Genesse, New York. Six more children (that we are aware of) followed with the last three dying after the exodus from Nauvoo, probably in Winter Quarters or on the plains.

Solomon went to Missouri with Joseph Smith in Zion's Camp, leaving Eunice at the home of Brigham Young in Kirtland. The experience strengthened their testimonies. They lived in Kirtland for several years and then moved to Muskingum County, Ohio for a few years where two of their children were bom (Albert -1839 and Mary - 1842). In 1839 the Latter-day Saints began to gather in Commerce (Nauvoo), Illinois. The Angells continued to live in Zanesville, Muskingum, Ohio at least until 1842 (Mary Angell was bom there in November 1842). It is not certain when the family lived in Nauvoo, but family histories indicate Solomon helped build the Nauvoo Temple, so we assume they moved there about 1843-44. He was also in the Nauvoo Legion. It was in June of 1844 that the Prophet Joseph and his brother, Hyrum were killed in Carthage, Illinois. Family histories say that Solomon and Eunice saw the transfiguration of Brigham Young when he spoke to the Saints about the Twelve Apostles assuming leadership of the Church as opposed to Sidney Rigdon.

Again the Saints were driven from their homes in the midst of winter, crossing the Mississippi in freezing weather. We next hear of Solomon and his family in Winter Quarters. Sarah Elizabeth, their daughter, was married on 12 December 1847 to Jefferson Wright, she was fifteen years old. It was a bitter, hard winter -many died, perhaps even one or more of the youngest Angell children who died before 1850

Solomon built his own wagon and the family arrived in Salt Lake City in September 1848 in Brigham's Second Company. Solomon was 43, Eunice 39, Alma, their oldest son, was 15; John 10; Albert 8; Mary 6. Sarah Elizabeth arrived with her new husband. The Angells lived in Salt Lake City until 1866. They built a home located on the comer of 3rd South and 3rd East in Salt Lake City. Some of the homes had one long room in which dances were held; the Angell home was one of those.

Solomon accepted and practiced plural marriage, as did most leaders in the Church. On 6 or 26 November 1853 he married Lucy Ann Fry in Salt Lake City, she died shortly after their marriage. Sometime later he married Lucinda Clark Hutchings (her second marriage after a divorce). They were sealed 15 Jul 1857 but later separated; she stayed in Salt Lake City when Solomon moved to Southern Utah. His last wife was Anna Cajsa Johanson who he married 31 Oct 1863, and had sealed to him 31 Oct 1863. [Note: Some records state

he was also married to Lucy Ann Decker - 1 don't think this is so, she married William Seeley and then Brigham Young,]

In 1863 Solomon and his families were called to help colonize southern Utah. Eunice and Anna and their children moved to Long Valley, Utah in 1865, where they lived in tents for quite some time. Indians drove them away and with great difficulty they finally found a sheltered, safe place to live and called it Pocketville (later Virgin City). Rains washed down over the mountains into their homes throughout the winter. Eunice was about 56 years old at that time, and the dampness caused her to become very ill from then on. The Angells also lived in Virgin where Solomon helped complete the gristmill. In addition, they helped settle Tocquerville, Harrisburg, and Leeds. Solomon's brother, Truman Angell, was the architect of the St. George Temple and Solomon often helped in the building of that temple. The family went and did what was asked and expected of them.

Solomon was called and set apart by Erastus Snow as Presiding Elder of Leeds Ward 9 May 1869. Indians would come into their home and beg for food, leaving lice which required hard work to comb them out of the children's hair. Brigham Young said it was easier to feed the Indians than to fight them, and encouraged the Saints to befriend them. President Young often stayed with the Angells when he came to Dixie. Two of Solomon and Eunice's children lived nearby in Leeds and Virgin, but the other three living children resided in the Salt Lake area in their later years.

Because of the hardships she had endured, Eunice lost her health and was bedfast the last ten years of her life, Eunice died on 8 February 1879 in Leeds, Washington, Utah. A dedicated pioneer woman.
