On 10-6-1839, he took his family from their home in Howard, Steuben Co., NY, and went by oxcart to Carthage, Athens, Ohio. There, they and LDS associates engaged in the manufacture of maple sugar and syrup. In September of 1843 they moved on to Nauvoo, Illinois, where he met the prophet, Joseph Smith. He served the church near there until the winter of 1846, when their great exodus westward began. Losing an ox to a mob for food, he crossed the prairies to Council Bluffs with an ox and cow yoked together, stopping there in August 1847. The remained there until 6-4-1853, leaving then with 2 wagons, 5 yoke of cattle, and 8 children, joining the company of 75 wagons under John Cooley. The trek west to Salt Lake City took 110 days, arriving there9-17-1853. He settled at Farmington, 17 miles north of Salt Lake.
