Brigham Young, as quoted by, Richard E Bennett, “Winter Quarters,” Ensign SARAH ANN, ELIZA, ABIGAIL, SUZANNE, What did you leave when you left your home land? When you followed a husband, who followed his God? Would you have come, if you had known the path your feet would trod? Eliza, you didn't believe like your husband Sam, That God had provided a promise land. So why did you come o'er the ocean and then, Pull that handcart thru' icy rivers and snow? Even after he died and was left on the trail; why did you stay and embrace his beliefs After all that? It's amazing to me. Sarah Ann, pampered and spoiled as a child, You of all people, I would have expected to stay In Philadelphia, where your charmed life, Had to do with ponies, and satin cushions and no strife. Hiding, because of your "delicate condition", You listened to the truth, And traded it all, For nail keg and goods boxes, loaded in wagons. Women of courage, with faith in every step, When I hear their stories, such a pattern they set, In them, I see my way more clearly, I may get there, yet. These stories have hardships and trials and death But when told by those who the journey trod, They were led and protected by the Hand of GOD. Too many stories, I must tell some more. Lydia and her husband left persecution in Maine, To come to Utah and try to settle again. Elizabeth and her husband died back in Maine, neighbors dug their graves, crooked so their souls they could not claim. Hannah in Missouri, was safe, but wait, Their neighbors were exiled, they couldn't stay. Haws Family History Timeline 3/24/2010 update printed 17 February 2016 akrc 1 of 20 Phoebe left some children in England, grown, to go, With their father to Utah to build a new home. Ann, from Mars Hill, her husband dead, Watched her children pull the handcart, all of them lived. Mary Ann, too, walked with the handcarts, when only six years old; Now, to Mexico with her husband’s young wives she must go. Lucy from Kentucky to Arizona much later, by train, With so many nearly grown daughters to wed. Alice, came to Arizona and married, so young, To a man who wouldn't see his children grown. Martha and Mary, like their mother, twins.... Left her buried in Mexico, came back alone. Mabel dragging her children across the state, To be with her husband as work would dictate. SARAH ANN, ELIZA, ABIGAIL, SUZANNE, How did you feel when you left your home land? When you followed a husband, who followed his God? Would you have come if you had known the path your feet would trod? Yes! You would come if you had know, the path your feet would trod! In honor of my pioneer grandmothers: Suzanne de la Tour Lamoreaux was a Huguenot who left France 1685 so that her children could be raised in religious freedom. Abigail Losey Lamoreaux was exiled to Canada when her family fought for the British in the Revolutionary War and then moved to Kirtland after Parley P. Pratt converted her and her husband in Canada in 1836. Eliza Chapman Gadd left England in the 1840's after her husband and older children joined the church. They pushed a handcart in the Willie Company. Her husband and two children died on the trail. She was baptized one month after reaching the Salt Lake valley. Sarah Ann Pedrick Asay was raised well to do, was disowned for joining the church in the pioneer trek in the 1850's. She had to hide to hear the missionaries because genteel ladies did not go out in public when they were expecting. The last verse honors Lydia Young Crockett, Elizabeth Brockett Crockett, Hannah Whitcomb Haws, Phoebe Colburn Barrett, Ann Jewell Rowley, and Mary Ann Gadd Rowley, Lucy Susan Stinson Pedrick, Alice Arminda Hendricks Asay, Martha Haws Rowley, Mabel Asay Lamoreaux, and Martha Barrett Haws.

My grandparents had a herd of sheep, some cattle, and a farm. …some distance from Nauvoo, his family hadn’t suffered the brunt of the persecution. …leaving his friends, …brothers and sisters to join a most unpopular cause was a grave and difficult decision to make. But, he did wish to gather with Saints, so he began to make some preparations. “However, they didn’t leave Wayne Co. until May 1847. They traveled in a northwest direction through Illinois, crossing the Mississippi River into Iowa, then went west past the first encampment of the pioneers at Garden Grove, which was about 150 miles from Nauvoo, and traveled on 100 miles to Mt Pisgah where they stayed for the winter. “My father [William Wallace Haws] was 12.

Her crew were often called ‘packet rats’ because of their dubious backgrounds. “Packet ships were sturdy, full-bodied, and somewhat tubby in appearance. “…in a 51 year period not one LDS emigrant company was lost in the Atlantic. …between 1847 & 1853, 59 such vessels were lost, with all who were on board.” “…fear of the ocean often submerged all other hardships.” “…the safety record of these vessels was remarkable. Masters and passengers often attributed the safe voyages to the hand of Providence, and to the fact that the ships were usually dedicated and blessed before embarking. Many of the vessels were eventually lost at sea, but not while transporting Latter-day Saints. “…uniquely organized… Large companies were divided into wards, each with its own presidency. “In the early years, emigrants supplied their own food. Later maritime legislation required shipping lines to provide a daily ration. Few emigrants could afford cabin fare, and sleeping accommodations in steerage were rude and usually overcrowded. …both space and privacy were very limited. …sea travel remained quite primitive. “…a mock-up of steerage quarters …is a confined areas with tiered bunks ranged along each side. A ladder or steep stairs provided the only exit, and during storms the quarters were ‘hatched down’ to prevent water from flooding the hold. The only light came from a few lamps hanging in strategic locations and shedding a dim glow. The only sanitary facilities were buckets or chamber pots. Some later packets had water closets built on the main deck, but during severe storms – sometimes lasting for days – steerage passengers were hatched down and could not get to the deck. It is easy to imagine the resulting chaos and stench. “Overcrowding compounded the misery of seasickness, dysentery, cholera, and other diseases. Many emigrant companies exceeded 500 passengers.

Converts to the church who had never been far from home soon found themselves at the mercy varying winds and uncompromising waves. At night, lying in their berths, they could hear the creaking and straining noises of the ship, the flap of canvas, the wind whistling through the shrouds and rigging, and the shouting officers and crew… Below deck, the emigrants little world was dark and confined. It was a discordant symphony of children’s crying, the retching and vomiting of the sea sick, the muttering and groaning of despairing companions and, above all, the waves crashing against the hull and over the deck.” “Sometimes ships were becalmed for days, creating water and food shortages.” “To combat disease, tedium, and discouragement, LDS emigrants established patterns of shipboard living. Scrupulous sanitation was emphasized, including frequent fumigation and sprinkling of lime (used as a bleaching) in living quarters. To promote health, leaders insisted that in warm and calm weather, everyone – sick and well – spend time on deck in the air and sunshine.
