The Cro,Vthers Fountain Green, Utah The Cro,vthers of Fountain Green, Utah ZroN's PRINTING & PuBLISHING Co. INDEPENDENCE, JACKSON Co., Mo. Copyright r943 William 0. Crowther Manassa, Colo. Printed in the United States of America THOMAS CROWTHER Born in Easthope, England, 1797, died March 3, 1871, buried at Bridge North, England. HI() ,rn ) ( PREFACE About the year 1850 a number of Elders of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints went to England. Those that went to Shropshire made many converts. Among them were three brothers and a cousin, Thomas, Francis, Richard and George Crowther. All four emigrated to the U. S. of America. The sole pur­ pose for making their home with the Saints of God (commonly called Mormons). Francis came in 1852 and died {)n the plains on his way to Utah. Thomas came in 1855, Richard in 1864 and George in 1857. These two brothers and cousin chose Fountain Green, Sanpete County, Utah, as the place to make their permanent home, where they lived and reared their families, for thirty years. Then Thomas moved to the San Luis Valley, Colorado where he and his family helped to make settlements. Richard moved his families to Southern Utah and later moved to Logan, Utah, with one family where he died. George remained at Fountain Green until his death. To keep a record of these three families is the pur­ pose of publishing this book with a desire of connecting their Genealogy with the Crowthers that are in England and also many of that name who came to America. This task of family historian has been assigned to Wm. 0. Crowther who has been laboring along this line for thirty years. At the reunion of the Thomas Crowther family held in Sanford, Colo., July 26, 1941, it was agreed by this assembly to have this record published. Wm. 0. Crowther was appointed chairman with Lewis R. Ander­ son of Manti, Utah, and Arthur F. Crowther of Salt Lake City, Utah, as aids to see that this work was accomplished. I want to thank these two men for their support and loyalty to this cause, and all members of the family who have rendered aid in this undertaking. Especially do I want to thank Mrs. Leah Kirby for her untiring help. May it prove a blessing and help to future generations yet unborn and all members of this great family to "KNOW YOUR KINFOLKS."

"My father's name was Thomas Crowther, he was born in r797, and he died March 3, 1871, and was buried in the cemetery at Bridge North, Shropshire, Eng­ land. My mother's maiden name was Ann Preece. She was born 9, Oct., 1800. She died 27, Aug., 1846, was buried at a place called Stanton, Shropshire, England. When I was nine years old my parents sent me to school for about twelve months. After that my father having a large family, put me to work as soon as I was able. By this time I was able to read in the Testament with­ out much difficulty. But I never made a letter or figure at school. What I know about writing or the value of figures I have picked up myself and that after a hard days work. At eleven years of age I hired out to an old gentleman by the name of John Bradley at a place called Ditton Priers. I stayed with him for two years and four months, and worked on his farm. He was a good man as far as he had light and knowledge; he was a strict Methodist and taught me good moral principles that had a lasting impression on my mind in after years. He would have me go to Sunday School every Sunday morning and meeting twice during the day, which I thought at that time was very irksome. But I have thought since it was all for my good. When I left him I hired to a man by the name of Edward Hughes, at a place called Kinsley, near Bridge North. I stayed with him two years, but did not get that religious training as I did of my former master. For he was a worldly man." I continued to hire out until I was twenty-two years of age, and notwithstanding the religious training that I 12 THE CROWTHERS OF FOUNTAIN GREEN, UTAH had received in my youth it did not seem to have that impression on my mind as it does on some people; that is I could not reconcile myself in regard to what God re­ quired me to do to be saved. "I went from one sect to another but I still felt an aken void. I seemed to be hunting something that none of the religious sects had got. About this time I was twenty-two years of age when I quit farmer's service and went into Staffordshire and worked at blast furnaces, that is manufacturing of iron. I continued to work at this business the remainder of the time I stayed in England. When about 26 years of age I married a young woman by the name of Sarah Thompson. About the time that we got married I went and paid a visit to my mother-in-law. When for the first time my eyes beheld the Book of Mormon. This was about 1849. There happened to be a Mormon Elder at my mother-in­ law's, by the name of Thomas Shelly, he presented me with a copy of the Book of Mormon which I took home with me and read it through, and truly I thought I had found the pearl of great price. My father - and mother-in-law had already been baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and had two of their children healed in a miraculous manner. They were both healed by the power of God, which caused quite a stir in that neighborhood. Several joined the church there about this time, and as I stated I read the Book of Mormon through and was very much interested in the little light that I had gained through reading that precious record. It caused me to long for more. I was not long in hunting up the place where the Latter-day Saints held their meetings, and the first or second time I went to see them, one elder ·spoke in Tongues and another interpreted the Tongue. The substance of it was, that THOMAS CROWTHER FAMILY 13 branch should grow and prosper and many should be added to the church. I ·shall never forget the sensation that came over me at that time, for I was satisfied that these men spoke by the power of God. I saw that prophecy fulfilled to the very letter. In the next three months there were forty-four added to that branch, my­ self and wife included among them. We were baptized Oct. 13th, 1850, into the Tipton Branch of the Birming­ ham Con£ erence, by Elder George Hill, president of that branch. Was ordained to the office of priest, December 26, 1851 by Elder John Weston. Later ordained an elder by William George, 13 May, 1853. About this time I met with a bad accident. I hurt one of my shoulders so bad I could not lift my arm up. I had faith in the power of God and his ordi­ nances. I went to meeting at night and took with me some oil and requested the elders to anoint my shoulder with the oil and pray to the Lord in the name of Jesus Christ to heal me; which they did and I was healed from that very moment, and went to my work the next morning to the astonishment of all my fel­ low workmen. Although my shoulder was black and blue and discolored for weeks afterward, but not to hurt me in the least. This was the first time I had the power of God manifest upon my own body. Previ­ ous to my hearing the Gospel I had one of my legs broken which caused me to be helpless for three months. This was about two months after I was married. During this time I read and reflected a great deal. I prayed earnestly for the Lord to guide me in the right path. I realize that it was through this circumstance that led me to investigate and embrace the Gospel.

  • Ancestry and Descendants of William Henrie, the “Heir” and Progenitor of the Henrie Families of Utah
    ANCESTRY AND DESCENDANTS OF WILLIAM HENRIE 1799—1883 by Manetta (Prince) Henrie (Revised, Updated and Reprinted by Ryan Henrie) Published 1954 Provo, Utah DEDICATION: To the younger generation and those who come after, this history of the WILLIAM HENRIE FAMILY is dedicated. PREFACE This volume includes data which the author has found and recorded on the ancestry and descendants of William Henrie, the “heir” and progenitor of the Henrie families of Utah. Much time and effort have been expended in the stupendous task of compiling this history. It seems to have been the custom of members of the general Henry family, in Scotland and elsewhere, to write the surname as “Henarie,” as Michael, the emigrant ancestor from Scotland, signed his name. Other common ways of spelling the name were “Hendry,” “Henery,” “Henry,” and “Henrie.” In America, there are thirty-two various spellings of the name. Host of the later records in this book, genealogical and biographical, were received from members of the family. The data were conscientiously checked and compared with every available source; but it is difficult to write history covering the activities and biographies of different members of any family and not have some part of it conflict with that written by others, no matter how painstakingly the material has been gathered. Family history is interesting, but not always accurate. If there are errors, it is hoped that the family will not disdain to appreciate the product as a whole. If more apace has been devoted to one individual than another, it is because more information was submitted.

  • A Medley of Cultures: Louisiana History at the Cabildo
    A Medley of Cultures: Louisiana History at the Cabildo Chapter 1 Introduction This book is the result of research conducted for an exhibition on Louisiana history prepared by the Louisiana State Museum and presented within the walls of the historic Spanish Cabildo, constructed in the 1790s. All the words written for the exhibition script would not fit on those walls, however, so these pages augment that text. The exhibition presents a chronological and thematic view of Louisiana history from early contact between American Indians and Europeans through the era of Reconstruction. One of the main themes is the long history of ethnic and racial diversity that shaped Louisiana. Thus, the exhibition—and this book—are heavily social and economic, rather than political, in their subject matter. They incorporate the findings of the "new" social history to examine the everyday lives of "common folk" rather than concentrate solely upon the historical markers of "great white men." In this work I chose a topical, rather than a chronological, approach to Louisiana's history. Each chapter focuses on a particular subject such as recreation and leisure, disease and death, ethnicity and race, or education. In addition, individual chapters look at three major events in Louisiana history: the Battle of New Orleans, the Civil War, and Reconstruction. Organization by topic allows the reader to peruse the entire work or look in depth only at subjects of special interest. For readers interested in learning even more about a particular topic, a list of additional readings follows each chapter. Before we journey into the social and economic past of Louisiana, let us look briefly at the state's political history.

Civil War Treasures: The Siege of Vicksburg From Without and Within. Siege warfare must necessarily produce radically different experiences for those besieging a city and those trapped within its walls. Such distinctly dissimilar impressions from the siege of Vicksburg are recorded in two small diaries contained in the LSU Libraries Special Collections. The Aaron P. Record Diary (Mss. 4869), kept by a private of the 8th Iowa Infantry Regiment, contains accounts of the quick-moving action of the wider Vicksburg campaign in vast strides from the first steamboat landing at Duckport, a trek down the west bank of the Mississippi River to the crossing at Grand Gulf, a mad dash to Jackson, to crisscrossing the road between Jackson and Vicksburg to force their capitulations. The Lewis Guion Diary (Mss. 826) conversely records the static, confined experiences of an officer of the 26th Louisiana Infantry Regiment inside the besieged city with its harassing incoming cannon fire, diminishing rations, and rumors that never cease in both their frequency and absurdity.

PREFACE To Abraham Lincoln, the Civil War was essentially a people's contest over the maintenance of a government dedi- cated to the elevation of man and the right of every citizen to an unfettered start in the race of life. President Lincoln believed that most Americans understood this, for he liked to boast that while large numbers of Army and Navy officers had resigned their commissions to take up arms against the government, not one common soldier or sailor was known to have deserted his post to fight for the Confederacy.
