  Very few stories of faith exhibited along the trail exist making the story of Daniel Bigelow a treasure for his posterity. Daniel was born on March 18, 1842 in Mercer County, Illinois to Nahum and Mary Jane Gibbs Bigelow. When Daniel was just eight years old he traveled to the Utah Territory in the Edward Hunter Company. One day a scout rode back to the wagon train and informed them that just up ahead were ripe choke cherries. Many young people grabbed containers and headed up the deep ravine. Daniel with his curly head of hair was no exception. As Daniel trudged along, too late he heard a rattlesnake. He tried to jump out of the way but was struck just below the knee. His older brother grabbed him and ran him to their mother. Mary and several others did all they could for him, but Daniel was feeling the effects of the poison in his bloodstream. Daniel requested that he be allowed to be baptized before he died. The elders agreed and carried him over to the river and preformed the ordinance. From the moment he was baptized, his body began to strengthen and eventually he was completely healed. The members of the company knew that it was a miracle. They offered praise to Heavenly Father for answering their prayers. Daniel went on to marry the pretty little Permelia Mecham on July 23, 1865. Together they had five children. Daniel entered into two additional polygamous marriages, having some twenty children. Daniel made many sacrifices for the education of his children as well as to have them complete temple work. His oldest daughter, Permelia Emily, wrote that she was doing endowment work at age fourteen. Daniel was gentle and affectionate and had a beautiful voice in which he sang hymns like “Who’s on the Lord’s Side, Who?” and gave lovely recitations. Daniel’s faith was tried when he was going to be tried for polygamy. Instead of going to jail, he went into seclusion for about a year. When he returned, he had many debts and three households to manage. He began working to pay the debts and accumulated many worldly possessions. As time raged on, Daniel, with failing eyesight, at the encouragement of his children went to Glines to live with Permelia Emily and her family. The day after he arrived, on October 22, 1921, he knelt in prayer and returned to his Father in Heaven.
