However, several short biographical sketches were written about her by members of the family. The most comprehensive sources were written by Veda Walker Green and included in Veda’s autobiography, Insomnia, later published as Veda Jane. Another short history was written by Veda and is on file at the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers Museum, Salt Lake City, Utah. This life story was compiled using these sketches, with additional information located in other sources such as newspapers, church and census records, and sketches about her husband and children. Some of the stories were just that — stories that may or may not have happened. Mary Jane was a stalwart member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She knew many of the early prophets and apostles, and even knew the Prophet Joseph Smith. Her life presented many challenges. She lost her father when she was very small. Her mother remarried and joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The family followed the Mormons to Nauvoo, Illinois, where Mary Jane lost her stepfather. Her mother migrated west, taking her three children, but lost her life in the exodus from Nauvoo, leaving Mary Jane to care for two younger siblings. Her half-brother succumbed to scurvy in Winter Quarters, Nebraska. Her half- sister Catherine came into the Great Salt Lake Valley in 1848. Mary Jane crossed the plains in a private wagon company in 1849. She had to work her way across the plains, being employed by the William Pickett family. She took care of their twins and did other chores. Her history is one of perseverance and patience. Hopefully the Life and Times of Mary Jane will help you become acquainted with her life. We can be proud to claim her as a progenitor. I have been as accurate as possible with the materials and my conclusions. I give thanks to all who have helped in any way - lending encouragement, correcting, and proofreading this manuscript. Especially do I want to express my appreciation to Hilary Hendricks for her effort in editing this manuscript. Her help was invaluable. Eldon H.

We provide and support rigorous academic, cultural, college, and career- readiness experiences for every student. We challenge, empower, and inspire students to become contributing global citizens and life-long learners. West High School is a diverse school of 2800 students, with English as the central language, and English Language Learners speaking over 50 different languages. It is our philosophy to ensure that the value of the learner diversity is not lost, by providing coursework in English for all students, as well as offering a variety of opportunities for study of other languages. We strive to provide equal access to the curriculum at West High School for all learners, in an appropriate way. We recognize that the teaching and learning environment is dependent upon high standards of conditions of practices in and out of the classroom. Language development for all students is a school value and priority. At West High School, we believe that language is the gateway for exploring and sustaining cultural identity and intercultural understanding, as well as promoting the growth of the individual student’s knowledge, wisdom, character, and confidence, as stated in our mission. We recognize that systems and practices must be in place to advocate for all students to access language development. West High School believes that language is central to learning and literacy, and thus is closely related to the success of all students as they work with curriculum.
