President's Message 14 2 number ISSUE 150 TABLE OF CONTENTS PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE We can appreciate the transition of another Prophet and First Presidency in January and recognize the molding of their marvelous lives in the Hands of the Lord. To see these Brethren, their interactions, their Apostolic statures, their love and respect for the Lord and each other is a quiet miracle. These past several years of our membership and participation with the Sons of Utah Pioneers have been a blessing for my wife Elizabeth and me. Chapter meetings have been our date nights and Family Home Evenings together. They have been our social agenda when we are not engaged with our children and grandchildren. We have learned so much about the Pioneers and Pioneer history in chapter meetings and the yearly Historical Symposiums. My hope is that every SUP member can feel this same brotherhood as we draw nearer to our ancestors and our Pioneer Heritage. I have felt the spirit of Elijah and his charge to “turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers” in this organization as powerfully as when Elizabeth and I were service missionaries. We served in the US/Canada Zone of the Family History Library just across the street from Temple Square. There was such a strong influence felt as we assisted patrons who visited the library from all over the United States and (Continued On Following Page) 1 FEBRUARY 2018 (Continued From Previous Page) other countries. The missionaries would often refer to the Family History Library as the “Elijah Library.” We have felt that same influence as we have searched for our ancestors and performed the Temple Ordinances for them. I have felt again the same inspiration and influence of Elijah as Elizabeth and I served as ordinance workers in the Salt Lake Temple. These activities are all interrelated and point us back to our ancestors. My first assignment with the Mill’s chapter of SUP was to complete a memorialization of an ancestor each year. It was to be turned in to the SUP library at the National Headquarters in order to complete a goal for the Chapter Excellence Award. Again, I felt the spirit and surge of love for those ancestors while I researched their lives’ stories. On one occasion I learned that my great-great grandfather, John Merriman Robinson, had been a tailor and emigrated from North Wales. I did not know about him when I served for five months as a missionary in Wales. I learned that my great- great grandfather had tailored suits for President Brigham Young and that he was imprisoned for several months for the practice of polygamy. While he was in prison, he tailored suits for the warden and some of the guards. This was how he supported his families while he was in prison. It then became apparent to me what a treasure it was to have inherited his sewing machine. I have often pondered the words of Moroni to Joseph Smith in September 1823. Moroni quoted from the old testament prophet Malachi in reference to Elijah, chapter 4 verse 6 with a variation “And he shall plant in the hearts of the children the promises made to the fathers, and the hearts of the children shall turn to their fathers.” There are many SUP members and wives who are or have been engaged in these same activities. We hope you feel the same influence and inspiration of this important prophet of the Lord. Keith Van Roosendaal - National President [email protected] 2 FEBRUARY 2018 MEMBERSHIP REPORT NAME .

It may be a request for help or just letting the members know what is going on . All items must be SUP related and any costs involved must be clearly stated . Contact the Trail Marker editor, Don Lee, at donlee0938@gmail .com to place any request . 2018 REGIONAL SYMPOSIUM LEGACY DONATION UPDATE The National Society of the Sons of Utah Pioneers has recently adopted an upgrade to its Legacy program. Bringing the SUP in line with other national organizations, we will now be offering members and friends the opportunity to donate in multiple ways in addition to the traditional, historic giving programs. The new program is designed to help any interested donor to “DO SOMETHING MONUMENTAL,” even if they are donors of modest means. More details will follow in the upcoming months. We appreciate the support that many have given us so far, and we feel that this new program, with its range of options, will allow us to have more donors, and donors who receive the gratification from doing something monumental, that will allow them to create a Legacy, by, in many cases, getting “more bang for the buck” as the rocket scientists Saturday, March 3rd, 2018 say. Steve Kruman, an Area Vice President, who is a 1:00 - 7:00 pm Financial and Estate Planner, will be the person serving the SUP for the upgraded program. He will be sharing Bloomington, St George Stake Center information with your Chapter Presidents, and we 200 W Brigham Road, Bloomington, UT hope to have a brief presentation made in the Chapters during 2018. If you need to reach Steve sooner, so that you can obtain an additional tax deduction in 2017, you may contact him at (435) 463-2778. 4 FEBRUARY 2018 (Send National News submissions to SUP1847@gmail .com) SONS OF UTAH PIONEERS 2018 NATIONAL LEADERSHIP We have a great group of 2018 National Officers and this is going to be a great year!

  • Manly Virtue: Defining Male Sexuality in Nineteenth-Century Mormonism
    Manly Virtue: Defi ning Male Sexuality in Nineteenth-Century Mormonism Russell Stevenson Sexuality in antebellum America constituted a set of contradictions. Men should be steely, resolved, and assertive; women ought to be reserved, fl ighty, and, under the right conditions, sexually explosive. As historian Karen Lystra has observed, “There are no sexual absolutes. Sexual experience is time-bound,” a fact that holds true for the Mormon experience as well.1 Much scholarship on the history of virtue in America has focused on the feminization of sexual virtue in the mid-nineteenth century. Mary Ryan writes that the Perfectionist community of upstate New York demonstrated how an experimental free-love community even- tually came to be the exemplar of feminine domesticity, emphasizing female virginity and restrained sexuality.2 Indeed, as Barbara Welter argues, women sought to wield sexual abstinence as a weapon in their defense. If they could fend off male advances, then they could be the saviors of male-kind from descending into barbarity and back- wardness.3 Nineteenth-century notions of female sexuality likewise exhibited the complicated relationship women had with their sexual self-identity. While some voices exalted the purity of the female vir- gin, some physicians encouraged husbands to be proactive in seeking their wives’ sexual pleasure.4 At the same time, other physicians as- sured insecure men that women would receive happily whatever was given them.5 This narrative of the feminization of virtue and sexuality, how- ever, does not address an important trend in Mormon history: the 48 4701spring2014Dialogue.indd 50 4/21/2014 11:36:06 AM Stevenson: Manly Virtue 49 role and defi nition of male virtue in the discourse on sexuality.

I would like to address a very large topic—conflict over marriage in the nineteenth-century United States—by considering a single object, a quilt made in the Territory of Utah in 1857. The quilt survives today in two parts. According to family tradition, a twelve- year-old boy won it in a raffle in Salt Lake City in 1857, then years later, when his own children were grown, cut it in two for his oldest daughters. In 1996, Carol and Dan Nielson of Salt Lake City inherited one half. Carol was determined to find the other. Through savvy research and a bit of luck, she did. Then she set about iden- tifying the sixty-three women whose signatures—in thread and in ink—are clearly visible on the squares.
