Bennion entitled Captivity, Adoption, Marriage and Identity: Native American Children in Mormon Homes, 1847-1900. be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Department of History David Holland, Committee Chair Diedre Clemente, Committee Member William Bauer, Committee Member P. Jane Hafen, Graduate College Representative Thomas Piechota, Ph. D., Interim Vice President for Research and Graduate Studies and Dean of the Graduate College August 2012 ii Abstract The Indigenes of North America’s Great Basin developed a way of life based on the available resources the Basin provided. Their culture and customs provided a stable means of understanding and interacting with the forces of nature and men. Their myths elaborated on their expectations, hopes, and fears, in real and metaphorical ways, as evidenced by stories of the trickster Coyote. As Great Basin bands came in contact with the Spanish and other Europeans, they adjusted their mode of gathering necessary resources based on new technologies, such as horses and guns, as well as their myths to cope with change. This process entailed some adjustment in their perceptions of the world around them and in their own perception of their identities. Some Indigenes, such as the Utes and Comanches, raided other Native bands throughout the Southwest enslaving women and children who they traded to the Spanish in exchange for additional horses and guns. Native American children, acquired through this difficult and wrenching raid-and-trade process, experienced a major cultural shift that imposed upon them an external identity. They reacted to that shift in varied ways that expressed individual constructed identity. The Utes and others who sold, traded or gave them away, and the Mormons who purchased, accepted or received them in trade, struggled to define rules governing the practice and their obligations concerning the children caught up by that practice. Individual personality characteristics, preconceived notions about the opposing culture, and the external actions of the United States federal government, complicated rules definition and the subsequent behavior of those involved. As the children came of age to marry, some faced prejudice and others found acceptance. Individual and family personalities, rather than cultural conventions alone iii often determined the outcome of the marriages. During this time Native Americans and Mormons experienced conflicts with each other, but especially with the U. S. Army and federal agents, and worked to negotiate their place in new structures. The Mormons and Native Americans experienced disillusionment in this time as fervently accepted concepts collided with hard realities, resulting in a mixture of anger, accommodation, assimilation and acculturation. Adult Native American children who grew up in Mormon homes negotiated their individual identities based on cultural cues from their combined cultures. This was a complicated process, but subsequent secondary literature written years after the fact tried to simplify the complexity as dictated by preconceived, often culturally skewed, notions. iv Acknowledgements I offer sincere thanks to my thesis committee. Dr. David Holland guided me through the thickets of American religious thought and offered many hours of guidance and encouragement during my studies. Dr. Willy Bauer taught me to separate Lakotas, Dakotas, Utes, Pahvants, Paiutes, Goshiutes, Bannocks, Shoshones, Navajos and other Indigenous nations from the generic European appointed designation of “Indian.” Although I understood the difference he taught me to see individuals, not stereotypes, and to listen for the story that came before the written narrative. His knowledge of historiography proved invaluable. Dr. Deidre Clemente opened my eyes to hands-on history and widened my historic horizons. She constantly encouraged me and warned me about becoming “addicted to words.” Dr. Jane Hafen provided enthusiastic support from the day she first heard about my topic, and guided me to find funding necessary to complete my research. Each has been tough on me when I deserved it and kind when I needed kindness. Other excellent instructors such as Dr. David Wrobel, Dr. Janet Ward, Dr. Andy Fry, Dr. Marsha Gallo, Dr. Elizabeth Nelson and Dr. Andy Kirk encouraged me, introduced many concepts that broadened my view and provided me with tools to craft this current work. Dr. Brian Cannon and Jesse Embrey at Brigham Young University provided research guidance, and the Charles Redd Center at BYU granted me funds and a summer location to complete the majority of my primary document research. I thank also the staff of the L. Tom Perry Special Collections at the Harold B. Lee Library, at BYU in Provo, Utah, the staff of the Church History Library of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in Salt Lake City, and the staff of the Lied Library and Special v Collections at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, especially Dr. David Whittaker at BYU, and Priscilla Finley and Claytee White at UNLV. Dedication My exquisitely patient wife, Luisa, dealt with my odd study habits and night owl hours. She kept me grounded and gave me wings. Bruce and Peggy Bennion gave me a sense of heritage. My grown children Karl-Erik, Shawn and Liesel offered love and encouragement Mike Bennion, June, 2012 vi Preface “Write about a Native American topic,” said Dr. Willy Bauer, as he introduced us to his graduate seminar on the American West. As a new non-traditional student, returning to academia after a 32-year absence, I wondered where a white middle-aged male might look for a topic and whether anything I wrote would be believable or acceptable. I remembered that my third great-grandfather once traded a horse for “an Indian boy, two or three years old.” Or so his journal said.1 My journey began. The resulting research over the past two years opened my eyes, sometimes horrified me, often humbled my heart and left me amazed at the resilience of the human spirit and the ability of women and men to respond in positive ways to crushing circumstances. Native Americans and Mormon settlers became my companions and friends as their life narratives unfolded in books, on microfilm, in videos and audios and in live oral interviews. I made new friends and learned new things. 1 John Bennion, Diary, September 15-17, 1858, http://content.lib.utah.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/UU_EAD&CISOPTR=1795 accessed March 5, 2010. vii Table of Contents Abstract…………………………………………………………………………………...iii Acknowledgements………………………………………………………………………..v Dedication………………………………………………………………………………...vi Preface…………………………………………………………………………………...vii List of Tables……………………………………………………………………………..ix List of Figures……………………………………………………………………………..x Introduction………………………………………………………………………………..1 SECTION I: Slavery, Indenture and Adoption…………………………………………..34 Chapter one: From Before the Europeans to Mexican Independence…………...35 Chapter two: Encounters, Negotiations Extra-legal Slave Trade, And the Indenture Act, 1847-1853………………………………………………65 Chapter three: Growing Up Indentured or Adopted: Accommodation, Resistance, and Identity, 1854-1865………………………...102 SECTION II: Marriages, Conversions, Perceptions, and Identity……………………...151 Chapter four: Maturing and Marriage 1865-1900……………………………...152 Chapter five: Epilogue………………………………………………………….188 Appendices……………………………………………………………………………...241 I Glossary……………………………………………………………………….241 II Tables………………………………………………………………………...245 III Maps…………………………………………………………………………256 IV XLS Database……………………………………………………………….258 Bibliography……………………………………………………………………………273 Author’s CV…………………………………………………………………………….293

Northern Utah was in many ways a Crossroads long before the emigrants, settlers, railroad and military came here. As early as pre-Fremont Native Americans, we find evidence of trails and trade routes across this geographic area. The trappers and traders, both English and American, knew the area and crisscrossed it following many of the Native American trails. They also established new routes. Explorers sought additional routes to avoid natural barriers such as the mountains and the Great Salt Lake. As emigrants and settlers traveled west, knowledge of the area spread. The Crossroads designation was permanently established once the Railroad spanned the nation.

  • Latter-Day Saint Liturgy: the Administration of the Body and Blood of Jesus
    religions Article Latter-Day Saint Liturgy: The Administration of the Body and Blood of Jesus James E. Faulconer Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT 84602, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Latter-day Saint (“Mormon”) liturgy opens its participants to a world undefined by a stark border between the transcendent and immanent, with an emphasis on embodiment and relationality. The formal rites of the temple, and in particular that part of the rite called “the endowment”, act as a frame that erases the immanent–transcendent border. Within that frame, the more informal liturgy of the weekly administration of the blood and body of Christ, known as “the sacrament”, transforms otherwise mundane acts of living into acts of worship that sanctify life as a whole. I take a phenomenological approach, hoping that doing so will deepen interpretations that a more textually based approach might miss. Drawing on the works of Robert Orsi, Edward S. Casey, Paul Moyaert, and Nicola King, I argue that the Latter-day Saint sacrament is not merely a ritualized sign of Christ’s sacrifice. Instead, through the sacrament, Christ perdures with its participants in an act of communal memorialization by which church members incarnate the coming of the divine community of love and fellow suffering. Participants inhabit a hermeneutically transformed world as covenant children born again into the family of God. Keywords: Mormon; Latter-day Saint; liturgy; rites; sacrament; endowment; temple; memory Citation: Faulconer, James E. 2021. Latter-Day Saint Liturgy: The In 1839, in contrast to most other early nineteenth-century American religious leaders, Administration of the Body and Joseph Smith, the founder of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints1 said, “Being Blood of Jesus.

  • A Brief History of the Scandinavian Mission by Andrew Jensen
    A Brief History of the Scandinavian Mission Andrew Jenson, Encyclopedic History of the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-Day Saints p.779- 780 SCANDINAVIAN MISSION (The) embraced the three Scandinavian countries, Denmark, Sweden and Norway, and at different times also Iceland and Finland. The headquarters of the mission were at Copenhagen, Denmark. The population of Denmark is about 3,000,000, Sweden about 6,140,000, and Norway about 2,890,000 [in about 1940]. The preaching of the restored gospel was confined to the English-speaking people (Indians excepted) until 1843, when the first missionaries were sent to the Pacific Islands, where they founded the Society Islands Mission in 1844; but after the headquarters of the Church had been established in Great Salt Lake Valley and the first missionaries were called from there to foreign lands, missionaries were chosen to open up the door for the restored gospel in France, Germany, Italy, and Scandinavia, on the continent of Europe. Thus Apostle Erastus Snow was called to open up a mission in the Scandinavian countries, and with him Peter O. Hansen was called specially to Denmark, and John E. Forsgren to Sweden. These brethren left Great Salt Lake Valley, together with other missionaries, in October, 1849, and arrived in Great Britain early the following year. Erastus Snow, while stopping in England, chose George Parker Dykes, who was laboring as a missionary in England, to accompany him and the other brethren mentioned to Scandinavia. Elders Snow, Forsgren and Dykes arrived in Copenhagen, Denmark, June 14, 1850, (having been preceded there by a month or so by Peter O.

  • Cache Valley
    C a c h e V a l l e y V i s i t o r s B u r e a u Cache Valley HERITAGE DRIVING TOUR CACHE VALLEY driving tour Cache Valley extends more than 50 miles into the states of Utah and Idaho. Beautifully nestled among the steep slopes of the Bear River and Wellsville mountain ranges, the valley averages 4500 feet in elevation and is four to twelve miles in width. The surrounding high mountains, clear streams and productive soil all combine to make it a valley rich in the blessings of nature. Cache Valley was the scene of many events important in the settling of the American West. It was here that mountain Indian tribes found ample hunting ground for game, that rugged mountain men splashed through streams in search of beaver, and where Mormon pioneers built new homes in the wilderness of the American frontier. For centuries before the mountain men and the Mormons came to Cache Valley, Native Americans hunted, fished and gathered seeds from the grass that was plentiful upon the valley floor. These Native Americans, the Northwestern Shoshone, named the valley Seuhubeogoi, “Willow River,” and established both winter and summer camps along the major rivers. As nomadic hunters and gatherers they followed centuries-old migratory patterns in search of food. Famous Northwestern Shoshone leaders were Sagwitch, Bear Hunter, Pocatello, Pahvants, and Sanpitch. Mountain men in search of beaver were the first white visitors to Cache Valley. During the years of the Rocky Mountain fur General Merchandise Store, built 1879 Cover photo: American West Heritage Center All photos: USU Special Collections 2 trade, the valley was a crossroad and campground for almost every mountain man who ever fought, trapped or traded in the region.

  • “For This Ordinance Belongeth to My House”: the Practice of Baptism for the Dead Outside the Nauvoo Temple
    Alexander L. Baugh: Baptism for the Dead Outside Temples 47 “For This Ordinance Belongeth to My House”: The Practice of Baptism for the Dead Outside the Nauvoo Temple Alexander L. Baugh The Elders’ Journal of July 1838, published in Far West, Missouri, includ- ed a series of twenty questions related to Mormonism. The answers to the questions bear the editorial pen of Joseph Smith. Question number sixteen posed the following query: “If the Mormon doctrine is true, what has become of all those who have died since the days of the apostles?” The Prophet answered, “All those who have not had an opportunity of hearing the gospel, and being administered to by an inspired man in the flesh, must have it hereafter before they can be finally judged.”1 The Prophet’s thought is clear—the dead must have someone in mortality administer the saving ordinances for them to be saved in the kingdom of God. Significantly, the answer given by the Prophet marks his first known statement concerning the doctrine of vicari- ous work for the dead. However, it was not until more than two years later that the principle was put into practice.2 On 15 August 1840, Joseph Smith preached the funeral sermon of Seymour Brunson during which time he declared for the first time the doc- trine of baptism for the dead.3 Unfortunately, there are no contemporary accounts of the Prophet’s discourse. However, Simon Baker was present at the funeral services and later stated that during the meeting the Prophet read extensively from 1 Corinthians 15, then noted a particular widow in the congregation whose son had died without baptism.
