1904 | Hi, MY name is Eva Lapree Horn. I was born September 5th ,1920 in Medical Springs, Oregon. I am the 3rd daughter born to Joseph Horn and Katie May England. At the time of my birth my family was living on a 140 acre ranch, that my dad was helping farm. My family moved to Cashe Valley, Logan, Utah when I was very small, My first years of school was there. I think I was in the 4th grade when we moved to Rupert Idaho which is where I grew up. I remember the years of growing up on the farm helping my dad herd sheep and when he cut the hay using our horses, Gub and June, to pull the swather. My mom, my sisters and I would put the hay in big round piles by hand so dad could rake it up. My dad took us to school on a horse pulled wagon. Going to school was a real hoot. We were always getting in trouble with the boys. My favorite sport was baseball and track and math was my favorite subject. I graduated in 1938 from Heyburn. I liked going to the Art exhibits that were held at the Heyburn school every spring. In fact that is where I met my future destiny.... This day that I am writing this is April 6, 1993. The remembrance of my life with Father and mother the two lovely man and women who brought me to this world was named Joseph Horn and Katie May England. My father was age of 28 and my mother at age 26, living on a ranch at Medical Springs Oregon,l the day of September 5th 1920 at 11:30 pm. I was the third child and my father and mother named me Eva Lapree. It is hard to remember my age, I would guess, 4 years old, my mind goes back to Cash Valley Utah on a farm at Logan, Utah. I remember a church Christmas party there was a big green tree decorated up pretty colored lights all lit up. A person in a red suit, white hair and a beard was by the tree he was giving out gifts and calling out names. He gave me a package and when I unwrapped it there was a pair of pretty blue necklaces. I thought how could he know my name. Rememberance of school, daddy as I remember took us 2 miles to school in a wagon pulled by horses, the school was called Young school. Now on the farm in Logan, Daddy had pure bred white faced panama sheep. He would always sheer them for wool to sell. My dad had us girls heard them on ditch banks on the farm. I remember my dad out plowing with two white horses named June and Gub. Daddy would hum a song as he was doing his farming watching the dirt roll over. Daddy cut his hay down using the only mower he had, June and Gub pulling it. Then when the hay dried, he raked it into ferlos, then us girls, Zylpha, Gladys, Delva and I and also mother, would put the hay into round piles to dry. Our mother was always out worling in the fields. She would go to the house and fix inner, us four girls took turns doing the dishes. I remember us arguing whose turn it was, that day to do dishes. Our mother had us girls take turns mixing bread in a big round pan with a live yeast mix of potatoe juice. She kept it in a qt jar, our Dad would take us to school on a sled with horses pulling it. on the way we would pick up other kids. some of them is my cousins, Benches also living in Burley. We had a herd of sheep in Logon, us girls would herd them around our farm, also cows, I tried to milk a cow one night and she had hobbles on, but still kicked over the bucket and spilled the milk. I cried over that so dad said for me not to milk again. O boy I was about 6 or 7 then. My mother, Dad and sisters always worked together on the farm, thinning beats topping them, and hauling them in a wagon pulled with the horses. We all picked potatoes together. | Horn, Eva Lapree (I50545)

1911 | His daughters UHQ article found on her Find-a-Grave has insight into his life and lonely ending as inscribed on his headstone alone in California. Daughter of Joseph Mount and Elizabeth Bessac Married Myron Tanner, 22 May 1856, Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah Children - Lewis William Tanner; Arthur Leroy Tanner; Joseph Marion Tanner; Mary Elizabeth Tanner; John Tanner; Myron Tanner; Grace Lillian Tanner; Gertrude Tanner; Bertrand Amasa Tanner History - In 1841, Mary's parents joined the Mormon Church, and she moved with them to Nauvoo. She recalled some of the early persecution there, and the death of Joseph Smith. She remembered their making preparations to leave the city, selling their belongings for very little. And she remembers the start of their journey: "I think I shall never forget that long lonely day; waiting on that vast undulating prarie that stretched as far as the eye could reach, covered with grass and flowers. It must have been a lovely scene that bright spring morning, but I hardly think it was properly appreciated by the little band who were so bravely leaving home, friends, country and kindred to take their toilsome march across the rocky mountains. The oxen were detached from the waggons and feeding lazily among the green grass, knowing nothing of the future that lay before them...My childish heart knew as little as they of the hardship that lay before us." Mary Jane was 10 when they arrived in the barren Salt Lake Valley in the fall of 1847. The first real home for the family was a crude cabin Joseph Mount built in the canyon, where he was also building a sawmill. They eked out a sparse living, fighting off crickets and harsh weather, for two years. When news of the gold discovery in California reached Salt Lake, Joseph determined to seek his fortune. He left his family in the care of his partner, agreeing to send the partner half of what he made in the gold fields. He did do reasonably well there, but this move cost his family much suffering both while he was gone and from the later consequences of the move. "We had a sack of flour which we had kept very carefully and would not use it as long as we could get it other ways; for my mother had learned to look out for emergencies. She had smelled something unusual, and, as she was not accustomed to foul odors about the house, set to work to learn the cause. Finally she traced it to the flour sack where she found a dead mouse. The smell had impregnated the flour and rendered it unfit for use. "To those who have plenty, and never knew the wretchedness of hunger and privation, this may seem a little thing; but to us it meant bread which is the staff of life and we scarcely knew how to replace it." In 1851 Joseph sent for his family to come to California, but they did not feel they should leave the valley. When Joseph heard this he became very angry, and thus began a little drama that changed the lives of the Mount family. Joseph demanded a divorce. Elizabeth, feeling abandoned and at a loss to know how to care for her family, obtained a divorce and soon after became the second wife of a Stillman Pond. By the time Joseph calmed down and came to make peace with the family, it was too late. Joseph also married again, and for a time Mary Jane lived with him, but felt a great sense of aloneness, not quite fitting in with either family. Eventually her father moved back to California, a bitter man. Her mother didn't find happiness, either, leaving Stillman Pond a few years later, and marrying a third time, to Timothy Foote. In 1856 Mary Jane married Myron Tanner, a young Mormon from San Bernardino whom she met on one of his trips to Salt Lake City. They were going back to California, but on the counsel of Brigham Young, decided to stay in Utah. They lived in Payson for a time, then moved to Provo, where they spent the rest of their lives. Myron and Mary Jane were the parents of nine children, three of whom died in infancy. Ten years after he married Mary Jane, Myron took a second wife, Ann Crosby. "Of this I will say but little. It is a heart history which pen and ink can never trace. It was a great trial, but I believed it to be a true principle, and summoned all my fortitude to bear it bravely." A cordial relationship existed between the two families for a time, but it eventually deteriorated into discord and bitterness because, said Mary Jane, of the interference of Ann's family. In later letters, however, she always defended the practice. And the insight she offers into the realities of polygamy is fascinating. Throughout her life, Mary Jane suffered from poor health. In 1842, after the birth of one of her children she became very sick from "childbed fever." It was then, and during the lengthy convalescence which followed, that she decided to become a writer. "God had given me a taste and a tallent for writing...and I determined then that if God gave me health I would not prize His gift so lightly, but would do all in my power to cultivate my 'tallent' and not 'lay it away in a napkin.'...As soon as my strength and time permitted I gathered and arranged my little poems and coppied them in a book." Her "Fugitive Poems" volume was published in 1880. She also contributed numerous pieces to Church publications and women's journals of the time. She made no great mark in the literary world, but did become known as the "Utah County Poetess." Her devotion to the Church never wavered. Myron served as bishop of the Provo Third Ward for a great many years; at the time she completed her autobiography, Mary Jane had served as president of the Relief Society for 15 years. She died on Jan. 8, 1890, "ending a useful and honorable career," as the newspaper account read. "She left a large family and a wide circle of friends to mourn her departure." And in her writings, particularly the fragments so choicely and skillfully presented in this book, she left a precious legacy, a fascinating view of Mormon life as it was a hundred years ago, seen through the eyes of a devout and caring woman.

1914 | HISTORICAL SKETCH OF JAMES PETER JENSEN James Peter Jensen was born 15 November in 1864 in Aalborg, Denmark. He was the son of Thomas Christian and Ane Marie Jensen. His father's occupation consisted of laying streets of bricks and digging wells. The entire Jensen Family was converted and baptized members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints while in Denmark. Of course, they wanted to come to Utah, but being very poor, they could not all come at the same time. Ane Marie's mother, Maren Anderson was the first to have the opportunity to gather with the Saints in Utah and was able to come about 1874. Two years later Ane Marie's turn came. She brought four small children, James Peter, Mary, Hannah and Jacob Willardsen (son from first marriage) with her. They were on the ocean for six weeks and because they were traveling as cheaply as possible all the food they had were scraps the ships cool gave them. This proved to be a very difficult time for them because there was very little food and none of them could speak English, the language used on the ship. Two years later Thomas Christian was able to save enough money to get his passage and again be united with his family. When they arrived in Utah the first settled in Ephraim, later moving to Redmond and finally to Koosharem. where they managed a mill. It was in Koosharem that James got interested in machinery and the milling business. Because of employment opportunities the family returned to Redmond were lived while James grew to manhood. James now a young adult, met a young lady named Elvina C. Orting Nebel (or Nebel Orting). The author was unable to find the circumstances surrounding their meeting, however, it is known that she was working in Salt Lake City at the time. Very little is known about her life before her marriage to James. They were married on 13 November 1887, at Manti, Utah. This union was later solomized in the Manti Temple on 14 November 1894, the day before James thirtieth birthday. The young couple selected Koosharem as the place to make their home. Life was not easy for the little family. They lived in a small log room with a lean-to used as a kitchen. There was noelecrticity, their only light was a dish with mutton tallow and a piece of cloth used as a wick. Admid these humble surroundings they had their first five children, Peter Leslie, Clyde Ezra, Zao Elvina, Celsta Marie, and Eulida Pearl. Running water??yes Elvina had to carry all the water needed for her family about two city blocks. Many times she did this with a baby in her arms and another child holding on to her skirts. When she was in bed with a new baby James would bring an old wooden bench to the bedside, place a galvanized tub and a scrub board on the bench with water and a bar of homemade soap. Here she would do the baby's laundry while James was in the fields. James had to farm in a most primitive way. Because of this his farm was not really productive, He supplemented his family's food by trapping game and catching fish at Fish Lake in Sevier County. He would bring this food home, the fish by the barrel full and clean them, cure them in salt and smoke them for the family to eat during times when he was unable to find fresh food. James also raised pigs that he prepared in the same way for winter food. | Jensen, James Peter (I91899)

1916 | History - Lucina Streeter was born 16 Oct 1785 at Chesterfield, Cheshire Co, New Hampshire, the oldest child of William Streeter and Hannah Mason. Her parents were both born at Cumberland, Providence Co., Rhode Island. William and Hannah had gone from Cumberland to Chesterfield soon after marriage and their first five children were born there. About 1797 they moved back to Rhode Island, where they had seven more children. Lucina was just 16 years old when she married 19 year old Levi Snow on 26th of November, 1801 at Chesterfield. The marriage was performed by Abraham Wood, Town Clerk. Levi Snow was born 22 July 1782 at Chesterfield, Cheshire Co., New Hampshire, the son of Zerubbabel Snow and Mary Trowbridge. When Levi was twelve years old his father, Zerubbabel, died leaving one third of his home, farm, and sawmill on Catsbane Brook to Levi, one third to his older brother, John and one third to their mother, Mary. Many of the neighbors were moving north where new lands were being opened up. Levi and Lucina wished to be to themselves and to acquire their own- home and farmland. The farm in Chesterfield was insufficient to support two families. It seemed prudent to make a move. Levi sold his share of the property to his brother John and prepared to leave. Soon they, with baby Levi Mason, set out for Lunenburg, Essex Co., Vermont, one hundred and twenty five miles north, up the Connecticut river valley on the Vermont side of the river. Through some litigation, Levi was swindled out of the farm he had hoped to have in Lunenburg. This was a great loss and a heartbreak to the young couple. They moved on to St. Johnsbury, Caledonia Co., Vermont, twenty miles to the west. Here they found many friends they had known in Chesterfield, N.H. They took up land in the north east part of the township, known as the Chesterfield district. With the help of kind neighbors and friends they were able to clear their land and build themselves a home. Through typical Vermont frugality, hard work, and untiring energy, the farm was expanded, the home furnished and added to as needed. Education was primitive, but not neglected. Schools only functioned two or three months of the year. The three "Rs", Reading, Riting, and Rithmatic, were the principal subjects. Schools were free but the parents furnished wood for heating and board for the teacher. By the spring of 1826 a fine new barn had been constructed and was in use. During the hot summer their house caught fire and was burned. The fire started in a pile of firewood stacked on the north side of the house. All of the men were out in the fields working. They were able to save only a few pieces of furniture and a box of books. The fine new barn became their home for several months. With the help of the neighbors a new house was built. Lucina is quoted as saving "since the barn was built between plantings, a house could be built between harvestings" and it was done. There was a strong religious conviction among all of the Vermonters at St. Johnsbury. By 1809 a church house was built and services were held regularly. For only two years was it headed by an ordained minister. The Snows were regular in attendance. Lucina joined the Wesleyan Methodist Episcopal Church and was very active in its affairs. The others, including Levi, were living good Christian lives but felt that it was not necessary to join any church. Erastus, at age nine, wished to join with his mother but Levi insisted that he wait until he was fully ready before joining. On the 4 May 1832, Orson Pratt and Lyman E, Johnson came to Charleston, Vermont and held a meeting. They explained that a new Prophet had been called by God and that the Gospel had been restored. They talked about a new book, "the Book of Mormon" and other important truths. Lucina's sons William and Zerubbabel were working in the neighborhood and attended the meeting. They were favorably impressed and sincerely interested. The conclusive testimony came when they witnessed the miraculous healing of Olive Farr, wife of Winslow Farr. William was baptized 19 May 1832 and Zerubbabel soon after. These Mormon missionaries went about the area preaching and visiting. William joined forces with them and many converts were made. On the 3 Feb 1833 William baptized his younger brother Erastus, age 14. On the 18 June 1833 Lucina and three more children were baptized. Soon the whole family except Levi Mason, Shipley Wilson, and father Levi were members of the restored Gospel. These three never joined. The Levi Snow barn became the Mormon meeting house and regular meetings were held, Lucina was overjoyed with the truths of the Gospel and did everything in her power to bring its blessings to all she knew. Levi was really converted but couldn't bring himself to accept the discipline of a church so was never baptized. Lucina and Levi left St. Johnsbury in the summer of 1836 and went to Kirtland, Ohio. They were accompanied by their daughter Lucina (who had married Albert Warner 3 Oct 1831} her husband and three children; William and wife Hannah; Charles; Lydia; and 10 year old Melissa. By fall all except the Warners were in Far West, Caldwell Co., Missouri. The Warners stayed in Kirtland until 1840 when they moved to Janesville, Wisconsin. Lucina and Levi took up land 1/2 mile north of Far West, built a home and prepared to stay there. Prior to the coming of the Snows in Missouri the Saints had been driven out of Independence. They were gathering in Clay county where they had been befriended. Some took up land and built homes. As their numbers increased the older settlers of Clay county became somewhat alarmed and by mutual agreement were asking that the Mormons move to the north where there was enough unoccupied territory to support a large influx of settlers. As this was new territory, unorganized, the Saints were permitted to organize the area as Caldwell County in December of 1836. During the winter of 1836-37 Far West was founded and laid out as a city. The Levi and Lucina Snow family were early settlers of the area. Persecution became rampant in all of Missouri and the Saints suffered mobbings, burnings, and all of the inexplicable indignities heaped on them by the depraved society among whom they lived. Finally the infamous "Extermination" order of Governor Lilburn W. Boggs was issued on 27 Oct 1838. The Snows left on 15 Apr 1839 and arrived at Quincy, Illinois on the 27th. At this same time Joseph Smith had escaped his captors and arrived in Quincy on the 22 April. The Saints were now homeless and anxiously searching for a place to settle. The hamlet of Commerce in Illinois was purchased, which later became Nauvoo, and permission granted to take up land on the Half-Breed Tract, across the Mississippi River, at Montrose, Iowa. There were some old unused Army Barracks at Montrose which were used for some time as shelter, While the Snows were still in Far West the engagement known as the Battle of Crooked River took place. Captain David W. Patten led his forces against the mobsters forces on the 25 Oct 1838, and was mortally wounded. He died during the night. At the funeral Lucina reports the words of the Prophet "There lies a man who has done just what he said he would. He has laid down his life for his friends". A Conference of the Church was held In Quincy, Illinois on 6 May 1839. Willard Snow, a Seventy, and William Snow a High Priest, were in attendance. It is quite certain that the other members of the Snow family were also there. Levi and Lucina moved on north to Lima, Illinois for a short stay. Others of the Snows remained at Lima where Gardner was made Bishop of the Ward in 1841. By June Levi and Lucina were in Montrose, Iowa. They took up land in Montrose and built a home. Joseph Smith arrived in Commerce, Illinois on Friday 10 May 1839 and took tap his abode in an old cabin. A General Conference of the Church was held at Commerce, Illinois on Saturday 5 Oct 1839, at which a branch of the Church was established in the Territory of Iowa. John Smith was called as President and twelve were chosen as duly elected members of the High Council. Among these were Willard Snow and Erastus Snow. Among the members listed were Jeter Clinton, Willard Snow, _____ Snow, Lucina Snow, Melisa Snow, and Charles Snow. This Organization continued for several years. Willard Snow was Ordained a High Priest 6 Dec 1839. On 18 July 1841 Willard was chosen as Clerk of the Council. On the 2 Nov 1841 Levi Snow died of Pleurisy at Montrose, Lee Co., Iowa, and was buried there. Lucina was left with her three unmarried children still at home. Levi had never accepted baptism so was not a member of the church. He had thrown his lot with the church ever since his St. Johnsbury days and had withstood the persecutions and mobbings equal with any of the Mormons. His passing at the age of 59 undoubtedly was the direct result of the hardships he had undergone. Little is known about Lucina during the Montrose and Nauvoo period of her life. She cared for William's 3 1/2 year old daughter Abigail while William was away serving on a mission. Abigail's mother (Hannah) had died, leaving William alone to care for her. Lucina made a trip to Rhode Island to visit Levi Mason where she remained until after the Martyrdom of the Prophet Joseph Smith. Lucina was evidently still in Rhode Island when Lydia married John Lewis on 26 Feb 1844 at Montrose, Iowa, They remained in Montrose until about 1852 when they moved to Irish Grove, Mo. Charles had gone there in 1848 where he married Sally Etoline Mann 10 Sep 1848. Charles and Lydia's husband John Lewis became medical doctors and set up practice together at Rockport, Missouri These two families became estranged from the Mormon church. After the death of the Prophet, Joseph Smith, in 1844 the Saints rallied and with increased effort finished the Nauvoo Temple.

1917 | HISTORY OF EDWIN WHITING, Compiled by Jennie Bird Hill, daughter of Abby Ann Whiting, daughter of Edwin and Hannah Whiting, 1919 “About the year 1800, in the little town of Lee, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, near the border of New York, lived the family of Elisha and Sally Hulett Whiting. Elisha Whiting's father was a sea captain and lived in Connecticut. He died when Elisha was very young. His mother, not knowing what else to do, bound him to an old Quaker, who was very cruel to him, and after a few years, he ran away to Massachusetts and worked on a farm with a wheelwright. Here he was married to Sally Hulett. They were highly respected, honest, generous and firm in their convictions. Elisha Whiting followed the trade of wagon and chair maker and did his work well. His wife was very gifted in making prose and poetry, a characteristic that has been bequeathed to many of the Whiting descendants. To Elisha and Sally Whiting, twelve children were born, eight sons and four daughters as follows: (1) Charles, (2) William, (3) Edwin, (4) Charles, (5) Katherine Louisa, (6) Harriet, (7) Sally Emeline, (8) Chauncey, (9) Almond, (10) Jane, (11) Sylvester, and (12) Lewis. Edwin Whiting was born September 9, 1809, the third child of this family. When he was six years old, his parents moved to Nelson, Portage County, Ohio. At that time, it was the western frontier of the U.S.A. but probably the very thing his father wished to be to get a suitable timber for his trade, for the support of his large family. Edwin Whiting's chance for education was very limited, but they were all taught the “3 R’s”,Readin', Ritin', and Rithmetic, and he wrote an legible hand, an extraordinary feat for his time. At an early age, he wrote credible verse. His early life in the forest, no doubt, accounts for his love of the out-of-doors, the beauties of nature, the trees, the flowers, the mountains and the desire to hunt. One Sunday morning, when but a small boy, he decided to go hunting. He knew this was contrary to his parent's teachings, so he tried to draw his gun through the cracks between the logs of his bedroom and go unmolested. His gun caught and was discharged, inflicting a serious wound in his left arm. This, he said, was a lesson to observe the Sabbath Day and to obey his parents. He learned the chair making trade from his father and his workmanship was considered very good. In 1833, when Edwin was twenty-four years old, he married Elizabeth Partridge Tillotson, an Ohio girl of French descent. She was a highly educated school teacher, quite an accomplishment for those days. In 1837, the Gospel was brought to the Whiting family. Edwin and his wife, his father and mother and some of his brothers and sisters joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They were baptized by Thomas Marsh in 1838. Here, as in the time of Christ and His Apostles, the humble, hard-working class of people were the ones to listen and accept the Gospel of truth. They were among the early members of the church and soon joined the saints in Kirtland, Ohio. Testimony of Joseph Smith By Edwin Whiting My children, I have guarded the prophet Joseph Smith while he slept; I have guarded him while he walked the earth. I have slept at his side. I have felt the power of God in his life. I have seen the mantel of the Holy Ghost hover over him. I have received the witness that I know that he is and he was a prophet of the living God, and I want you children, may family to honor him and to honor each succeeding prophet following him because your security in the kingdom of God and your security in the church depends upon your full allegiance in the prophets in the earth. This testimony I leave with you and I know that he was indeed a prophet of the living God. It was here that their trials, hardships and persecutions began and it took true manhood, womanhood and faith in God to endure. They were forced to leave their new comfortable home, complete with furniture, orchards and land in Kirtland, Ohio, and took only their clothing and a few valued relics and went to Far West, Missouri. By this time, Edwin and Elizabeth had four children: William, Helen Amelia, Sarah Elizabeth and Emily Jane. They were only in Far West a short time and had just built a new home, when the mob, several thousand strong, ordered them out. Every house in the village was burned except father Elisha Whiting’s, which was spared because he was so sick they could not move him. We remember of hearing aunt Elizabeth tell how she sat on the pile of bedding far into the night with little daughter Jane in her arms. Little Jane died soon after from exposure and lack of proper food. Sarah clapped her hands at the big bonfire the mob had made with their fences and the select wood from her father's chair shop. They were compelled to flee again so they joined the saints at Lima in father Morley's branch, where Edwin Whiting acted as counselor to brother Morley. For Several years, the saints were happily building up the city of Nauvoo, and their temple. Here they worshiped God without so much persecution as they had experienced at Lima. Edwin was appointed Colonel in the Nauvoo Legion and was an active worker at all times for the up-building of His Church. Through the advice of those in authority, and for a righteous purpose, he entered the law of plural marriage. On January 3rd 1845, he married Almira Meacham. The following year, January 27, 1846, they were sealed in the Nauvoo Temple, and also to Mary Elizabeth Cox, his third wife. That same year, he was called on a mission to Pennsylvania and was there at the time of the martyrdom of the Prophet Joseph and Hyrum Smith. He soon returned home and took up arms with his brethren to protect his property and the lives of his family. During the battle of the Crooked River, his brother Charles was killed. Still a greater test awaited him, his brothers, Almond, Sylvester, Chauncey and Lewis and his sister, Louisa did not feel that Brigham Young should be the leader of the Church so they followed Alpheus Cutler and called themselves "Cutlerites" and moved up into Clitherall, Minnesota. To this day they hold tenaciously to the teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith. They still correspond with the children of Edwin Whiting, and have given us, for temple work, an extensive genealogy of the Whiting family. Edwin Whiting, his families, his father and mother stayed with the saints, who were compelled to move west as far as Mt. Pisgah, (now known as Talmadge) Iowa. There they stayed to prepare for the journey across the plains. The dreaded disease, cholera, took the father and mother of Edwin, his little brother and little daughter, Emily Jane. Their names are on the monument lately erected at that place in memory of those who died there. So many of his family were sick at one time, that there was no one well enough to get the sick ones a drink, but even in those trying times, they still had faith and rejoiced in the Gospel, for the Lord was with them. Emeline, a sister of Edwin, married Fredrick Walter Cox and the two families were as one big family for years. They established a chair factory and hauled the chairs to Quincy, Illinois where they were sold. From this and their crops, they prepared to come west. Aunt Mary taught school two terms and helped the family some. While at Mt.Pisgah, three children were born. Albert Milton was born to Mary. Oscar Newell was born to Elizabeth, and Catherine Emeline was born to Almira. In April, 1849, Edwin and Emeline, the only children of Elisha and Sally Whiting who stayed true to the Church, started westward in brother Morley's company. Volumes have been written of the westward journey of the saints, and as Congressman Leatherstood has said, “It is the greatest emigration trail that was ever blazed, and our pioneers will, some day stand out in history as the greatest pioneers of the world.” They fought Indians, had their cattle stampeded, suffered for lack of proper food, and even though tired from that long and tedious trek, still they went on. After reaching the Black Hills, a heavy snowstorm came and for three days they were shut in. Many of their cattle died and perhaps they would have died had not the teams and provisions sent by President Brigham Young come to their aid. On October 28, 1849, they reached Salt Lake City, which looked like a haven of rest to that travel-worn company. Aunt Mary said, “I have never beheld a sight so good and so beautiful as Salt Lake City. We were so thankful our journey was at an end.” But their rest was of short duration, for in a few days Edwin Whiting, the Morley's and the Cox's were called to settle the San Pitch River, now known as Manti. Again they journeyed on. It took three weeks to go from Salt Lake City, because they had to build their own roads. Provo was then a village of about six homes. As they passed Hobble Creek, afterwards known as Springville, Edwin Whiting remarked, “This is a fertile spot. I would like to stop here.” They arrived in Sanpete county on December 1, 1849, with almost nothing to eat, no food for their cattle, no shelter to keep them warm, and cold weather upon them. They made “dugouts” on the south side of the hill where the Manti Temple now stands. It was a severe winter, with snow so deep the cattle could scarcely get grass and most of them died. Food had to be divided with the Indians to keep peace. President Young had promised them provisions and help, but none came, so Edwin and Orville Cox put on snow shoes and with a little parched corn in their pockets for food, placed their bedding on a sleigh and started toward Salt Lake City for help. When they reached Nephi Canyon, they met their help, brother Dace Henry, his wife, her brother, Mr. Doge and an Indian, snow bound. Their cattle had died and their wagons were all but covered with snow. The young wife was very sick, so Edwin gave them the sleigh to pull her to Manti. They put their quilts on their backs and walked on to Salt Lake City and reported conditions to President Young. Aid was immediately sent, but some of that company went back to Salt Lake City. Edwin's family now numbered fourteen. They lived in a large room in the wall of the hill with their chair factory in one end. The men and boys hauled wood from the hills on the hand sleighs. The following spring (1850), there were three girls born. Harriet Lucinda was born to Mary Elizabeth in April, Louisa Melitia was born to Elizabeth in May, and Cornelia Dolly was born to Almira in June. For several seasons, very little was raised. It became necessary to build a fort to protect themselves from the Indians, for they felt that the white man had stolen their land. The gates of the fort were locked while the men went to the fields with their guns. From this developed the Walker War. Edwin was appointed Captain of the Militia. Twice the Indians drove his cattle off and stole whatever they could. Edwin often told us of one big old ox that he owned. The ox would rebel whenever an Indian tried to drive him. He would turn on his captors and break their defense and come home. He hated Indians and would always lower his head and challenge them if they came near. Edwin tried planting fruit trees, shrubs and flowers, but they could not survive the very cold winters. Their crops were poor, but they managed to exist and were a happy family in spite of their hardships. In 1854, he was called to Ohio on a mission and was gone for two years. While he was away, the grasshoppers came and took everything they raised. They faced starvation, but miraculously, where the crops had been, a patch of pig weeds grew and they lived on them until the corn ripened in Utah County. A strange thing it was, for the Indians said those pig weeds had never grown there before, nor have they grown since. Walter Cox divided with his brother's (brother-in-law) family while Edwin was away. Edwin, upon his return, brought many kinds of fruit trees, (some from his father's farm that he helped to plant when a boy) shrubs and flowers, and again tried to grow them, but the climate was too cold. On the 8th of October, 1856, Edwin married Hannah Haines Brown. Abby Ann Whiting was born to this couple at Manti in 1858 and Lorenzo Snow Whiting was born at Manti in 1860. On the 14th day of April, 1857, he married Mary Ann Washburn. Two children were born to the family while they resided at Manti. Daniel Abram was born in May, 1858 and Monroe Finch Whiting was born in November, 1862. While he lived at Manti, Edwin was among the foremost men in religious and civic affairs of the community. He was councilor to the Stake President. He was mayor of the city from 1857 to 1861. He was a member of the legislature for two terms, and as stated before, he was Captain of the Militia in the Walker War. After finding the climate of Manti unfavorable for raising fruit, his special work, he was advised by President Young to try out his nursery at Springville. He moved to Springville in 1861 and was able to plant and grow all kinds and varieties of fruit trees, vegetables and flowers. People used to come from neighboring communities to see his flowers. He built a home on the lot where the Springville Second Ward Church now stands. That old two story adobe home will stand in the memory of the members of the Whiting Family as a place of many happy evenings and of fun and amusement. Aunt Mary also taught school there. He transplanted, in different towns, many evergreens from the mountains. Those around the old Court House in Provo, those at the Springville City park, and one large evergreen that stands southwest of the Manti Temple which can be seen for miles around. He once said “I brought that in my dinner bucket and I think it was the first evergreen transplanted in Utah.” His life was typical of this great tree. A poem written by Emmay Whiting, wife of Daniel Whiting, describes his life and this tree as being similar. Edwin had one of the largest families in Utah. Many of those stand at the head of Stake and Ward organizations in our Church. Among his descendants, we found seven bishops. In his later life, he did temple work for his dead relatives in the Salt Lake Temple, St. George Temple, and in the Logan Temple. He lived the principles of his religion. He was honest, charitable, and never accumulated great riches. He was thrifty and loved his wives and children and gave them the comforts of life. He died at Mapleton, Utah on the 9th of December, 1890 at the age of eighty-one years. He was firm in his belief and testimony of the truthfulness of the Gospel. His descendants are numerous and are found in Idaho, Arizona, Mexico, California, New York, and in Utah. [1919]” Edwin arrived in Springville, Utah County, Utah in 1861 along with his wife, Hannah and her children. Other family members remained behind in Manti until homes were constructed. During the first winter, Edwin, Hannah, and their children, lived in a lean-to that was made by placing boards against the 12-foot high wall of the Springville Fort. Edwin later secured property near Main Street and 400 South in Springville and built two identical homes out of adobe with a fifty foot space in between. A third structure was eventually constructed between the two smaller homes, and the completed home became known as the "Big House." Edwin was active in community life in Springville. In 1861, Edwin Whiting's family were all living in Manti where he had been sent by Brigham Young to organize the San Pitch River. Finding the climate too cold for his occupation as nurseryman, he asked permission of Pres. Young to come north, which was permitted. He left all his wives and children in Manti except Hannah and her children and moved to Springville. Their home for the first winter was a lean-to by placing boards against the old 12 foot high fort wall. Edwin bought a strip of land extending from Main street extending to where the High School now stands. (The high school is no longer standing but it was east of the present Art Museum). On this land he soon made homes for the rest of his family. Two homes exactly alike were built of adobe leaving a space of fifty feet between, later filling in this space and joining onto the previously built and we designated it as the Big House, a two story structure with spacious windows and doors, large airy rooms, broad halls and broad steps of native sandstone transported from the quarries of San Pete by ox team by the older sons. Choice fruits and berries grew in his orchard near the house. These budded from eastern varieties. A school was taught in one of the rooms until a suitable house could be built. There all lived in love and harmony. by Abby Ann Whiting Bird Heritage Tree: Red Juniper Tree planted on the Edwin Whiting Property: Family tradition holds that Edwin was responsible for planting several trees throughout the city and Utah County. Many have become diseased or have been removed due to other construction, but one significant specimen still stands at this location, approximately 445 South Main Street. I t would likely have been near the front of The Big House. Edwin's biographers, including his daughters, say that he got many of his trees from the Utah Mountains east of Springville. This tree measures just under 13 feet in circumference and stands about 40 ft. high. It is much bigger than any other Juniper in the area and could have been purchased elsewhere. Other records we have tell us of Edwin purchasing trees in Salt Lake. We are not quite sure where the name “Juniper Red” comes from. Juniper Red is not a Utah Native Tree. There is a plaque at the base of the tree placed by the Daughters of the Pioneers. Several photos over the years show the development of the tree and the changes in the buildings surrounding it. The "Big House" was later demolished and in 1913, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints built a chapel on the property. Extensive remodeling on the historic church building was completed in 1998 and the building was rededicated by Gordon B. Hinckley, then president of the Church. The building was extensively damaged by vandals in 2006, who set fire to the structure. It was demolished as a result. The juniper tree still stands (2011). Edwin Whiting Beekeeper There are two articles about Edwin Whiting and his association with a group known as the “Utah County Bee Keepers Association”. The first one lists Edwin first as one of two Vice Presidents of the group. The lengthy article lists some of their activities and problems with bee keeping. It can be found at : http://digitalnewspapers.org/ The article is in the Deseret News 3 Aug 1870, pg 12 under “Correspondence”. The second of an even longer article titled, “Report of Committee on Bees”, at the very bottom, refers to “One Swarm kept by Whiting of Springville, Utah Co., paid a profit of $125.00, estimating young bees $25.00 per stand and honey 50c per pound,” Source: Deseret News Online 27 Dec 1870, pg.3. http://digitalnewspapers.org/ Wayne Johnson, a grandson of Edwin has sketched several items about the house and yard of Edwin, one of them is labeled "The Apiary", which is a place where bees and their hives are kept. This image can be seen in this site at Historic Places, Driving Tour of Springville.

This story has probably originated from the fact that the brethren have heretofore not succeeded in bring melons into maturity. This has been laid to the door of Jack Frost, but this is not the sole cause, for it is well known that while there from one to five hundred Indians in our midst during the greater part of the summer, and while they are allowed to travel over our fields, gardens, & unmolested and unrestrained, we can do but little in the way of raising melons. This season, many of the brethren have their city lots fenced, and are living on them; those that are thus situated, are blessed with fine melons, squashes, pumpkins, tomatoes, & articles that have not been raised with any degree of successes, previous to this year. I had a squash from the garden of bro. Holden a few days since, that was equally good as any I ever saw in Great Salt Lake Valley. Bro. Edwin Whiting showed me a number of heads of cabbage a few days since, that equal any that ever grew in Buncombe, N.C. He raised his cabbage from the seed last season, (‘51) cut the heads from the stalks and buried the stocks in the fall so as to protect them from the winter frosts. In the spring he took them up and set them in rows, from 20 inches to two feet apart; after they had started the many shoots that usually come out on an old stock, he selected the healthiest and most thrifty bud or shaft, and broke the others off. The buds so left, have sprung into large, hard, white heads of cabbage; in fact, this cabbage is better headed than any I have ever seen in the valleys. Bro. Whiting has tried this experiment two seasons, with good success, and recommends this process of raising cabbage very highly. We have had a high frost on the bottoms, but none to injure any sort of vegetation in this city as yet. We had a very severe hail storm in this place, this morning; but as the harvesting is almost over, it could have done but very little damage. After the hail, it rained a fine shower, which will hasten the growth of turnips, &c. I am yours, AND. L.

Deceased was born September 9 1809 at Lee, Berkshire County, Massachusetts. When six years of age his father moved with his family to Portage County, Ohio. Brother Whiting was married to Elizabeth Partridge Tilotson in 1833, moved westward in 1837 and was baptized by Thomas M. Marsh August 1838. He was one of the brethren who were compelled to lay down their arms at the order of the mob. He listened to the infamous speech of General Clark and was forcibly expelled with the saints from the State. Locating in Lima, in the Morley settlement, he there became counselor to father Morley. Deceased was on a mission in Pennsylvania at he time of the Prophet Joseph's martyrdom and was recalled that year. After the burning of his house by a ruthless mob he was driven to Nauvoo. In the year 1846 he journeyed with the saints for the great west, staying at Mount Pisgah. He was President of that branch for one year. In 1849 with a family fourteen in number he went to the valley of the Great Salt Lake, before reaching which he enrolled his name with a company (of which father Morley was president) to go to Sanpete, there to establish the settlement of Manti, where he remained twelve years, and became counselor to the president, also mayor of the city and a member of the Legislative Assembly of Utah. He was likewise captain of militia during the Indian troubles. All these positions he filled with much honor. He went on a mission to Ohio in 1855-6 and moved to Springville, Utah County in 1861. The deceased was well known as a successful fruit grower and brought the first of a number of varieties of fruit to Utah. He worked eight successive winters in the the Temple, for the dead. Brother whiting was the father of twenty sons and sixteen daughters, twenty five of whom are living. He had 135 grandchildren and twenty-nine great grandchildren.

1918 | HISTORY OF HANNAH HELENA ROSEBERRY AND GEORGE LARSEN FAMILY from "History of Hannah Helena Roseberry" by her daughter, Mary L. Owens written between 1968 and 1970 Just a few memories of our mother we would like to add to the Book of Remembrance. Our mother Hannah Helena Roseberry, was born October 2, 1861 in Utah. Mother and Uncle Charlie Roseberry were the second set of twins for Grandma [Helena Ericksson (Roseberg) Roseberry], also the first born in America, after their arrival. Of course, mother was raised like all of Grandma's children. They had to work and get by the best they could. Our mother never said much about her early life, most of us were so young and we didn't ask questions. So we didn't remember much that was told to us. Aunt Louisa [Rogers] told us about their early life, and I don't think any of Grandma's children had it easy. When Grandma [Helena] left Utah with a company of saints for Arizona in 1878, our father, George Larsen, was with them. Dad had been asked by the church to drive a wagon for Mrs. Peterson, a widowed lady with a family of small children, but non old enough to drive. They were about five months getting to Snowflake, Arizona where some Mormon pioneers were living. They hadn't been in Snowflake very long when mother and Grandma and our father, George Larsen went to St. George, Utah. Mom and Dad were married in the St. George Temple, November 6, 1878. It was getting cold so they spent the winter in St. George, Utah. When they returned to Snowflake, they stayed about a year then joined a company who was coming to the Gila Valley [Arizona]. There were eight families living in Pima when they arrived in May 1880. Of course, the men got busy clearing the ground, making ditches, etc., so they could start raising food. Our father and Uncle Joe Roseberry did some freighting from Globe to Willcox, which was about 140 miles each way from Pima. Glove was a copper mining town and Willcox was as far as the railroad came. They would load up in Willcox with supplies for Globe then haul copper from Globe to Willcox. Grandma Roseberry stayed with mother most of the time while Dad was freighting. I remember very well when mother goat a letter from Aunt Betsey Loving, asking for someone to come to Mexico and bring Grandma to Pima as she was verby very sick and wanted to come back home. Uncle Charlie Roseberry was living in Ft. Thomas, a little town about 12 miles from Pima, so mother had Uncle Charlie go for Grandma. I also remember the night he came home with Grandma. Dad and our brother Sam were at the depot to bring her to mamma's. I and two little sisters were so thrilled to think of seeing our Grandma, but she was so sick that Mamma let us see her but one time. Of course we were disappointed. Grandma Roseberry passed away at Mamma's home December 18, 1899. Our mother's health was very bad. She had heart trouble as far back as I could remember. In July and August 1907 six of us children had the measles and mother overdone herself in taking care of us. Early in September, she had a heart attack. The doctor kept her in bed and did everything possible for her. Then a few days before her death, she had another attack and she passed away Monday night, a few minutes after midnight, October 1, 1907 and was laid to rest on her 46th birthday, October 2, 1907. A good neighbor lady, Sarah Follet and our Dad was with her when she died. Our father passed away June 6, 1910 from pneumonia, two years, eight months and six days after mother. Dad had a nice farm to leave us children, plenty to keep us very comfortable. Our brother Sam cared for the farm along with his own. He had fifty acres with a home on it that Dad and Mamma had bought and given him. Dad always had beautiful horses. In November 1908, he sold a matched team to the Globe Fire Department and Sam delivered them in Globe. Sam was married in March 1913, so us six children lived by ourselves. My brothers and sisters were the best children that ever was; no trouble to anyone. We just tried to be good and kind to each other. About two years after Sam's marriage, he decided not to run Dad's farm. About that time, Hilda married Edwin Taylor. Our brother Joe wanted to buy Dad's farm, so we divided the farm and sold it to Joe. So with Hilda's husband helping Joe with the farm, everything went well. Hilda ahd her husband lived at the home place. Hilma [Lamb (Hilda's twin)] and I were working away from home helping other families with housework. Hilda looked after the younger children at home, which were Joe, Beatrice and Bill. Hilda and Ed were surely good to them. Our brother Joe passed away [appendicitis] November 18, 1931 at Hilda's home. Of course we are all scattered now as all families do. Our only brother Bill lives in Montana. The youngest girl, Beatrice is in Los Angeles. Hilma is in New Mexico and Hilda is in Pima, Arizona. Mary is in Safford, Arizona, eight miles east of Pima. Mother and Father have 24 grandchildren, 76 great grand children and 63 great great grand children. | Rosberry, Hannah H (I95964)

1919 | History of Jens Christensen By his Granddaughter Doris Christensen Wood Christensen was born 25 November 1797 in Steinbroen, Hjorring County, Denmark. His parents were Christen C. Christensen and Maren Jensen. He joined the Latter-Day-Saints Church in Denmark in 1852. On his estate in Denmark, there was a stone bridge near his home. Because of this he was called Jens Stenbroen (Stenbroen meaning stone bridge in Danish). He was called Jens even after he came to Utah. On this stone bridge a mob tarred and feathered the Latter Day Saint missionaries. After, the mob went up to grandfather's house and broke the windows in his house. (This was told to cousin Rilla Jensen by brother Severn Lee). He was a boy of twelve when this happened. Then grandfather sold his estate and came to Utah in 1854. He also paid the way for several saints to come also. He was a contractor and builder in Denmark. When he came to Brigham City he helped build the Tabernacle and the back part of the Court House and other buildings in Brigham. His picture is in the book: History of Box Elder County with the first band of Brigham City, Utah. His first wife was Anne Petersen. She was the daughter of Christen Andersen and Kirsten Pedersen. They were married 4 October 1818 at Taars Parish, Hjorring, Denmark. Their children were: Johanne Marie Jensen, born 3 Dec 1818, in Houstrup, Hjorring, Denmark Christen Jensen, born 30 Mar 1820, in Houstrup, Hjorring, Denmark Kirstein Margrethe Jensen, born 7 Oct 1821 Christine Jensen, born 25 April 1823 Kirsten Marie Jensen, born 21 Sept 1824 Nicoline Jensen, 9 Sept 1826 Peder Christian Jensen, born 8 Dec 1827 Christen Jensen, born 16 Aug 1830 Niels Christian Jensen, 15 July 1832 His second wife was my grandmother Amelia Christensen (Munk). [Christensen underlined]. My grandfather married my grandmother after all his other children were grown up. They had four children: Anne Marie Christensen, born 2 april 1861 in Brigham City, Utah James Christensen, born 6 January 1864, in Brigham City, Utah; died 2 Jan 1948 Amelia Christensen, born 19 Dec 1867, in Brigham City, Utah; died Dec 1950 Martha Christensen, born March 1870, in Brigham City, Utah They were married in the Salt Lake Endowment House in 1861, she was twenty four and he was sixty one years old. All my father could remember of his father was that he had long white whiskers for his father died when he was nine years old. Grandfather died 28 April 1873 at Brigham City, Utah at the age of seventy five years old. He was buried at Brigham City Cemetery on 2nd East street down by Williard S. Hansen's (Rilla's father's plot) | Christensen, Jens (I140942)

1923 | History of Wilford Woodruff, Millennial Star 27 (1865), In tracing the history of my fathers, I find it difficult to obtain a satisfactory account of the Woodruff family for more than three generations. My great grandfather, Josiah Woodruff, lived nearly one hundred years, and possessed an iron constitution, and performed a great amount of manual labor nearly up to the time of his death. His wife's name was Sarah; she bore to him nine children, as follows:--Josiah, Appleton, Eldad, Elisha, Joseph, Rhoda, Phebe, and [two names not given.] My grandfather, Eldad Woodruff, was the third son of Josiah. He was born in Farmington, Hartford County, Connecticut, in 1751; he also possessed a strong constitution. It was said that he performed the most labor for several years of any man in Hartford County, and from overexertion in hewing timber, he was attacked with rheumatism in his right hip, which caused severe lameness for several years before his death. He married Dinah Woodford, by whom he had seven children--viz., Eldad, Elizabeth, Samuel, Aphek, Titus, Helen and Ozem. Eldad married Lewey Woodford; Elizabeth, Amasa Frisby; Samuel, Miss Case; Aphek, Beulah Thompson and Azubah Hart; Titus, Louisa Allen; Helen, Amos Wheeler; and Ozem, Acksah Merrill and Hannah Hart; all of whom had large families. My grandfather died in Farmington, with the spotted fever, in 1806, aged 55 years. My grandmother, Dinah, died in 1824, in the same place, with a cancer in the left breast; her sufferings were very great. My father, Aphek Woodruff, was born in Farmington, November 11, 1778; he married Beulah Thompson, who was born in 1782, November 29, 1801. She bore three sons--namely, Azmon, born November 29, 1802; Ozen Thompson, born December 22, 1804; myself born March 1, 1807. My mother died with the spotted fever, June 11, 1808, aged 26 years, leaving me fifteen months old. My father's second wife, Azubah Hart, was born July 31, 1792; they were married November 9, 1810; they had six children--viz., Philo, born November 29, 1811, and died by poison administered by a physician November 25, 1827; Asahel Hart, born April 11, 1814, and died in Terrahaute [Terrehaute], October 18, 1838; Franklin, born March 12, 1816, and died June 1; Newton, born June 19, 1818, drowned September 1820; Julius, born April 22, 1820, and died in infancy; Eunice, born June 19, 1821. I married her to Dwight Webster, in Farmington, Connecticut, August 4, 1841. My father was a strong-constitutioned man, and has done a great amount of labor. At eighteen years of age he commenced attending a flouring sawmill, and continued about 50 years; most of this time he labored eighteen hours a day. He never made any profession of religion until I baptized him, with all his household, into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, on the first day of July 1838. He was a man of great charity, honesty, integrity and truth, and made himself poor by giving to the poor, and accommodating his fellowmen by loaning money and becoming surety for his neighbors, and always saying yes to every man who asked a favor at his hand. | Woodruff, Aphek (I107453)

1928 | Holger Reedtz, Holger Christian Reedtz, 14.2.1800-6.2.1857, diplomat, minister. Født i Odense (Knuds), død på Palsgård, begravet i Assens, Bjerge hrd. R. blev student fra Odense katedralskole 1818 og cand. jur. 1823. På en afhandling om de af Valdemarerne erobrede Østersøkyster vandt han 1821 universitetets guldmedalje og fortsatte sine historiske studier med udgivelse af Repertoire historique et chronologique des traités conclus par la couronne de Dannemare depuis Canut-le Grand jusqu'å 1800, 1826. Hans undersøgelse i München 1827 af det af Christian II bortførte arkiv førte til nogle afskrifter, men - uvist af hvilken grund - ikke til nogen udgivelse. R. vendte sig derefter fra historisk forskning og ansattes 1828 som volontør i udenrigsministeriet, blev sekretær 1831 og tog sin afsked 1842 da han følte sig krænket ved Christian VIIIs indgriben i en sag han behandlede. Han trak sig tilbage til Palsgård som han var blevet medejer af ved faderens død, eneejer fra 1845, og beskæftigede sig med astronomiske studier fra et observatorium han lod opføre. 1847 valgtes han til Viborg stænderforsamling, men deltog ikke i dens samling 1848 da han 8.4; genindtrådte i statstjenesten som depechesekretær i udenrigsministeriet. Under treårskrigen anvendtes han især til ekstraordinære sendelser. Han ledsagede tidligere gesandt ved den tyske forbundsdag Fr.v. Pechlin til drøftelser i London om våbenstilstand i juni, udenrigsminister F. M. Knuth til Malmø juli-aug. hvor våbenstilstand aftaltes og undertegnede i Berlin erklæringen af 27.9. der gav Preussen og derigennem slesvigholstenerne adgang til at udpege fællesregeringen som skulle styre hertugdømmerne under våbenstilstanden. Denne erklæring som de nationalliberale ministre D. G. Monrad, Orla Lehmann og L. N. Hvidt stemte imod i statsrådet, hindrede et tillidsforhold mellem R. og de nationalliberale. Kampene 1849 afsluttedes med R.s undertegnelse i Berlin 8.7. af våbenstilstanden og præliminærfreden med Preussen. Han overskred her sin kompetence idet han gav større indrømmelser end hans instruks tillod. Hans bevæggrunde var tilskyndelser fra russisk og engelsk side og egen vurdering af de storpolitiske forhold under de fremtrængende reaktionære strømninger. Hans handlemåde vakte megen misfornøjelse i Kbh., men regeringen accepterede de trufne aftaler og accepterede også at R. på Pechlins udtrykkelige forlangende fulgte ham som anden befuldmægtigede til de afsluttende fredsforhandlinger i Berlin juni-juli 1850. Derefter udnævntes R. 14.7. til direktør i udenrigsministeriet og overtog 6.8. udenrigsministerposten som konseilspræsident A. W. Moltke havde beklædt siden F. M. Knuths afgang nov. 1848. R. havde adskillige forudsætninger for at fylde posten. Han var en øvet og kyndig diplomat, men savnede smidighed og talefærdighed hvad der gjorde det vanskeligt for ham at hævde sig over for rigsdagen. Han stod Carl Moltke nær og var afgjort helstatsmand. Det lykkedes ham at afspore det såkaldte notabelprojekt, udarbejdet af nationalliberale ministre. Det gik ud på at en gruppe af monarkiets ansete mænd (notabler) skulle drøfte Slesvig-Holstens forhold ud fra et ejderpolitisk synspunkt. Holsten skulle adskilles fra Slesvig og kun have konge, diplomati og hær fælles med monarkiet. Dog gjordes der helstatsmændene den indrømmelse at Slesvig ikke skulle indlemmes i Danmark. R. erklærede at projektet var uigennemførligt og at han ikke kunne arbejde for det. Efter en rundrejse til Warszawa hvor han forhandlede med den russiske kejser, til Wien og Berlin forsommeren 1851 kunne han over for statsrådet berette om europæiske strømninger der stærkt gik imod ejderpolitik og nationalliberalisme og havde ladet ham forstå at det ville være gavnligt at regeringen fik en ændret sammensætning. Under disse forhold meddelte han i statsrådsmøde 27.6.1851 at han ikke længere kunne fortsætte som udenrigsminister. Han fremkaldte dermed regeringens demission, men indtrådte 14.7. påny som udenrigsminister i A. W. Moltkes 3. regering. Af nationalliberale var nu kun J. N. Madvig i regeringen. R. kunne imidlertid ikke udnytte sin sejr. De tyske magters krav voksede og han veg tilbage for en kamp med rigsdagen. Kun Carl Moltke støttede ham og 18.10.1851 tog han sin afsked, afløst af C. A. Bluhme. 1849-51 var R. medlem af landstinget for 10. kreds og sad 1854-56 i rigsrådet, men spillede ikke mere nogen politisk rolle. - Medlem af Danske selskab 1828. - Kammerjunker 1824.

Andrew Leete, son of the Governor, possessed a liberal portion of the excellencies of his father. He was early appointed commissioner, or justice of the peace, and had principal concern in managing the affairs of the town. In 1677 he was elected an assistant in the colony, and was annually re-elected until his death, October 31, 1702. He is said to have had the principal agency in recovering the charter of the colony during the time Major Andross usurped the government, and to have kept it for a season in his house here. He appears to have been a man of infirm health, most of his life subject to fits of epilepsy, which impaired his usefulness. For a number of years he was one of the Justices of the County Court for new Haven County. He married a daughter of Thomas Jordan, Esq., one of the principal settlers, and after the return of his father-in-law to England about 1660, occupied his estate and dwelling house on the northwest corner of the Green.

His family moved to Southern California when he was four years old. Mike was born with a love of the sea and grew up surfing and sailing in Southern California. He attended public school, joined the Navy shortly after high school and served valiantly during World War II. After serving in the Navy, Mike received a bachelor's degree from UCLA and earned a PhD in Biology from UC Davis. Mike married Valora Prentice 1951 and together they moved to Utah in 1953 where Mike became an air pollution consultant for US Steel. He also taught classes concerning air pollution at BYU. Mike joined the faculty at the University of Utah in 1958, where he was a much loved and highly regarded professor of botany for 35 years. For years he was the keeper of Red Butte canyon's ecological research station, and oversaw research there. Mike's internationally recognized studies of gaseous pollutants were integral to the discovery and identification of acid rain and the early discovery of the depletion of the ozone layer. Mike loved the outdoors, and believed skiing the Wasatch was second only to surfing in the Pacific. Mike spent all of his free time up the canyons near Salt Lake, and authored texts about the flora there. He was an avid member and past president of the Wasatch Mountain Club. Mike opened one of the first retail establishments on Snowbird's plaza, the Timberhaus, which expanded to Park City and Vail. His greatest pleasure was skiing, hiking and boating with his children. Mike was an avid Boy Scout, and was awarded the Silver Beaver for his leadership in Scouting. Mike married Marilyn Tueller in 1980 and helped raise her two young children, teaching them to ski and sail, sharing his love for adventure and the outdoors. In the summer of 1992 Mike married Jean Frances. Mike travelled the world, enjoyed tennis, played bridge and lived in retirement with Jean. Mike is preceded in death by his parents, his beloved baby daughter Kaaren, his son Paul and second wife, Marilyn Treshow. He is survived by his adoring wife Jean Frances Treshow, his brother Kenneth Treshow, and his children Michael Treshow VII, Nathan Tueller, Annie Tueller Payne and Jean's four surviving children. Other survivors include his grandson Anthony Paul Treshow, and nearly 30 stepchildren and step-grandchildren who love him and call him "Farfar". In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Mike Treshow's name to the Utah Road Home. An open celebration of Mike's life for all those who loved him will be held on November 10th at the Unitarian Church on 569 S. 1300 E. at 11:00 a.m. Details of the celebration will be posted at garnerfuneral.com.

The Chronicle of Alberic de Trois-Fontaines names "Radulfum de Esselduno qui fuit comes Augi" as "Hugo Brunus fratrem natu maiorem" (presumably an error for "minorem"), adding that "horum pater Hugo de Lisegnen" had "fratres…Gaufridum, Henricum regem Cypri et Guidonem regem Ierosolimorum"[1091]. "Maiorem" is presumably an error in this source for "minorem", or represents a transcription error: no scenario has been identified in which Raoul being the older brother is compatible with the other information relating to the Lusignan family. According to the Complete Peerage, "Esselduno" was "Exoudun, Deux-Sèvres, arrondissement Melle, canton La Mothe-Saint-Héray" not "Issoudun, Indre"[1092], although the editor of the Monumenta Germanica series states that the place was "Issoudun, départ. Indre"[1093]. Comte d'Eu, Seigneur d'Exoudun, de Melle, et de la Mothe-Saint-Héray. The date of the marriage and Raoul’s succession as count is uncertain. It must have taken place before 1194 when "comes de Auco" paid scutage on land in Sussex[1094]. "Radulfus Augensium comes" confirmed donations to Tréport, made by "antecessores mei comes…Robertus et Guillelmus filius eius et Henricus avus Henrici junioris et Johannes pater eiusdem Henrici et idem H.", by charter dated 1191[1095], indicating that the marriage took place some years earlier assuming that this document is correctly dated. The Annals of Burton record that “Warinus de Clapiun senescallus Normanniæ” besieged “castellum de Denecurt”, on the orders of John King of England, adding that King Richard had given the castle to “Radulpho de Ysoudun comiti de Aueo, fratri Hugonis le Brun”, but that the siege was lifted by Philippe King of France before the arrival of King John[1096]. The same passage is given by Roger of Hoveden[1097]. "Hugo Brunus comes Marchie", on leaving for Jerusalem, recommended "R. comiti Augi et Hugoni filio meo" to take the abbey of Châtelliers under their protection by charter dated to [1200][1098]. "Hugo Brun com March et Rad com Augi" swore homage to John King of England, dated 28 Jan 1200[1099]. Ralph of Coggeshall records that in 1202 John King of England made war against "comitem de Marchis…Hugonem cognomento Brun et fratrem eius comitem de Eu" who had rebelled against him "pro filia comitis Engolismi, quam Hugo prædictus prius affidaverat"[1100]. Seigneur de Civray et de Chizé: an order of King John dated 2 Nov 1202 refers to "gentes Com Augi de Siveray et de Chisie"[1101]. An order of King John dated 7 Nov 1202 granted safe passage for a visit to "R. com Augi"[1102]. "Comes Augi" pledged his lands for his homage to Philippe II King of France, and that of "fratres sui comes Marchie et vicecomes Castri Eraudi" dated (by Delisle) to [1209][1103]. His date of death is indicated by the following document: the mayor and commune of Niort wrote to King Henry III, dated Feb/Mar 1220 (O.S.?), notifying the death of certain persons including “le comte d’Eu, monseigneur Porteclie, messeigneurs Geoffroy du Taunay, A. de Rochefort, Pans de Mirebeau et monseigneur Ceebranz Chaboz” leaving heirs “qui sont en bas âge”[1104]. The necrology of Ulterioris Portus monastery records the death "1 May" of "Radulphus comes Augi"[1105]. m (1194) ALIX Ctss d'Eu, Lady of Hastings, daughter of HENRI II Comte d'Eu [Normandie] & his wife Mathilde de Warenne (-[13/15] May 1246). The Chronique des comtes d’Eu, written in 1390, names "Aalis et Jehanne" as the two daughters of "Henry et Mahault", adding in a later passage that Alix married "Radulphus de Yssouduno...filz du conte de la Marche mainsné" in 1200, and died in 1245 "à Villeneuve en Poitou en un sien lieu appelé la Mote"[1106]. “Haelisia comitissa Augy quondam uxor Radulfi de Ysondun comitis Augy” donated property to Roche Abbey, for the souls of “…Radulfi filii mei”, by undated charter witnessed by “domino Willielmo comite Warennæ avunculo meo…”[1107]. An order of King John dated 1 Apr 1202 relates intelligence that "filia Com. Aug…uxor Rad de Exoldun mortua est"[1108]. “A[lix] comitissa Augi” confirmed that she relinquished "terram de Forz…ex eschæta Guillelmi quondam domini de Forz et comitis Aubemarle" to Louis IX King of France by charter dated Feb 1233 (O.S.)[1109]. The necrology of Ulterioris Portus monastery records the death "14 May" of "Aelis...comitissa Augi"[1110]. Comte Raoul & his wife had four children: (Raoul, Guerin, Mathilde (Maud) and Jeanne).
