Elizabeth Pugh

Notes:

Elizabeth's mother died when she was little and she was raised by a n Esther Brown near Waynesville, Warren County, Ohio. Elizabeth was of 6th ge neration Quaker heritage. When she was 23 she married Joseph Young, who was 1 8. They were baptized into the church when their youngest child was 7. They s ettled in PLeasant Grove two years later. Joseph C. Young went into polygam y when he married Martha Alldrege, a widow. Martha and Elizabeth were both sea led to him in the Endowment House. She had been married to a Keller by whom sh e had Joseph, Samuel, and Julia. Elizabeth, Joseph's first wife, must not have liked the arrangement , because two of her sons, James Madison and Peter (who had never married and w eren't members of the Church) talked her into leaving Joseph and going to Id aho to keep house for them. At the time of her death, Elizabeth was living with a daughter, Rache l Ann Fenn in Colville, Washington. IGI (7104910-56). Found in the 1880 Census in Idaho with her dau., Rachel Ann and her h usband, John Butler Fenn. According to Lue Park, Elizabeth's marriage to Joseph Young was an "o ut of unity" marriage and Elizabeth would have been ousted from the Friend s church. Lue Park has her birthdate 14 May.

Allen Stuart Adamson Machinist or Carpen|Machinist or Carpen

Notes:

Spelled Stuart or Stewart. Sources: Spanish Fork Ward Records, 0027309. Utah 59a Spanish Fork Cemetery Records. Utah 59b Spanish Fork Census Records. He was a machinist and carpenter by trade. IGI (7104910-57). A quote from his journal, kept in Pitman shorthand. (He was living i n Dundee, Scotland, was in the Methodist faith, and age 22 at the time): "... a man came to work at the same place I was working and he was a 'Mormon'... H e offered me the Book of Mormon to read. I accepted it with the remark that 'I wo uld point out his error for him.' I read the book carefully too. Instead of me detecting errors in it, I found that it showed many errors in my fait h. After I read it, I was convinced that it contained more truth than I had ev er been taught to believe... I was not at peace in my mind. I thought tha t I would come to a determination upon the subject. I saw the Methodists and a ll my former friends up against me if I joined the 'Mormons.' On the othe r hand, I saw the truth of God, and I saw how despised the Latter-day Saints we re. Here, in August of 1845, I reasoned that the truth of God was of greater va lue to me than the smiles of my friends; so there and then I said to myself, ' I will go and be baptized and let people say what they might.' I shall never f orget the peaceful sensation which passed over my whole system the moment I det ermined to be baptized." He served as a missionary for the Church from October 1849 to Decembe r 1851, baptizing 39 converts. To quote from his journal, "I...preached th e mission of Joseph Smith, the Prophet and Seer of the last days, and the coming f orth of the Gospel... Stones and other things were thrown down from the gall ery. An egg was thrown and smashed, nearly striking a man. One stone struc k past the side of my head. I did not feel any way put out by this, but I ende d my last lecture in that place." He immigrated in 1852 to Nova Scotia, then to Salt Lake, then to Span ish Fork. In 1884 he built the roof on the Provo Tabernacle for $6,396--all mat erial and scaffolding furnished. He was a member of the Spanish Fork choir. From a letter he wrote to his sister, May: "We arrived in Salt Lak e City Sept. 29, 1854, being a little over three months on the Plains, as we cal l them. But it was a healthy exercise and we enjoyed ourselves around our campfir es at night. Although we were in Indian country, still we felt all right . The Lord was with us. On these great Plains you could see the buffalo by hund reds and the antelope and deer in herds, free as the air, free to any that nee ded food or venison. The principle with the Latter-day Saints was not to kil l any game unless they needed it for food... When I came to this valley, I di d not come to make money. I came for the Gospel's sake and lo, the Lord has giv en me temporal blessings also so that I am comfortable and able to school t he children also and give a meal's victuals to the stranger who may com e in."
