Clara C. Whitehead Kimball (sister), Adolphus Rennie Whitehead Sr., Elizabeth Jane Jarrold (mother).
On crossing the plains:
Elizabeth Jane Jarrold Whitehead, 45, brough her 4 children across the plains with the Milo Andrus Company in 1855. Son Adolphus was 13. For some reason husband, Francis stayed in England, but died in 1862 – this date must be a mistake because she is listed as a “widow with four children” on the Milo Andrus Company records.
3 comments:
Elizabeth actually divorced Francis. He was a heavy drinker and a womanizer so she left England and moved to America. She either gave false information regarding her marital status to the Milo Andrus Company, or they wrote it down incorrectly.
Hi. Do you have a source for this? I just want to make sure everything gets documented. Thanks!
Elizabeth married Absalom Pennington Free affter arriving in Utah 5 Oct 1856 at Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah
