[14237] Married by Samuel Kelsey Esq.
[1477]
William W. Phelps (1792-1872) was born at Hanover, New Jersey. Well educated, Phelps was an aspirant for the office of lieutenant governor of New York at the time he first learned of Mormonism through reading the Book of Mormon and talking with Sidney Rigdon. He visited Kirtland in 1831, was baptized, and became active in editorial work, establishing the "Evening and Morning Star". One of the Prophet's scribes, he assisted in preparing the first hymnal. Excommunicated in 1839, he returned to fellowship in 1841 and fulfilled a mission to the eastern states. He was implicated in the difficulty surrounding the destruction of the Nauvoo Expositor and was summoned to be tried for treason with Joseph Smith at Carthage. He accompanied the pioneers to Utah, where he became one of the first regents of the University of Deseret and a representative in the Utah legislature.
LDS Church Hymns by William W. Phelps include the following:
"Gently Raise the Sacred Strain"
"Now Let Us Rejoice"
"Hosanna Anthem" ("The Spirit of God")
"Praise to the Man"
"Vade Mecum"
From "The Phelps Family of America and Their English Ancestors," by Judge Oliver Seymour Phelps & Andrew T. Servin. (Eagle Publishing Company, Pittsfield, Mass., 1899).
JUDGE WILLIAM W. PHELPS, b. Dover, N. J., 7 Feb., 1792, removed with his father and family to Homer, N. Y., in 1800, m. Stella Waterman (now called Sally.) Mr. Phelps had a common school education. When quite young he removed to Ohio, soon returning to Homer, N. Y., where he started a paper called the "Western Courier. " From there he removed to Trurnansburgh, Tompkins Co. N. Y., and started the publication of a paper called the "Lake Light." From there he removed to Canandaigua, Ontario Co., N. Y., where he published a paper in the interest of the Anti-Masons, called the Ontario Phoenix. While he resided there the "Book of Mormon" came before the world. He was infatuated with their new religion, abandoned his paper and removing his family to Ohio, joined the Mormon church, and went to Missouri with the first Mormon missionaries. In the fall he returned for his family, purchased a printing press in Cincinnati, and removed with his family to Independence, Jackson Co., Missouri., then a new Mormon settlement.
In the fall of 1833 the Mormons were banished from Jackson Co., removing and settling in Colville Co., Mo. From here they were soon routed and removed to [Nauvoo,] Hancock Co., Ill., where they flourished for some time and built a Temple. In 1843 they were again banished.
Their next location was Salt Lake City, after which their history is generally known. Mr. Phelps removed and settled with them in Salt Lake City, where he was quite a prominent man, holding for many years the position of Judge. He died there 6 March, 1872 in his 78th year, leaving a widow, his first wife, Sally Waterman, and several children, His widow, Sally, says there are three children in Salt Lake City, the rest in the states; as to the number of wives he took and as to his children we have no full records.
The following is a copy of a letter to Mr. O. S. Phelps from Mrs. Phelps on the death of her husband. This shows how deeply the people are infatuated by their religion:
Salt Lake City, 18 Mar., 1872
Dear Friend: I received your kind letter and was glad to hear from you. I have to inform you that Mr. Phelps died the sixth day of March, and will have a part in the first resurrection of Saints and Apostles.
Through all his fightings and doing he has died at a good old age. Peace to his memory. His works will follow him. He is with Joseph and Hiram, the Blessed Martyrs, who died for the Testimony of Jesus, who believed in Revelation and Resurrection literally fulfilled. God is our Judge and our (here there are three or four words obliterated) are free Jesus and his Apostles were thought not fit to live on the Earth, and were slain for their religion, but we fear not what man can do unto us knowing that God is on our side. Should like you to come to Salt Lake City and see and hear for yourself. Should like to hear from you often. Accept my best wishes and may Peace attend you and yours, I remain your friend and well-wisher.
Sally Phelps
Early in life he was a candidate for the office of lieutenant-governor of New York. He was baptized into the Church in June, 1831, and undertook a mission to Jackson County, Missouri, where he located as a printer, and published a monthly paper, "The Evening and Morning Star," the first number of which appeared in June, 1832. While he was attending to his duties at the printing office, on July 20, a mob attacked his house, which contained the printing equipment, and pulled it partly down, seized the printing materials, destroyed many papers, and threw his family and furniture out of doors. Again on July 23, the mob renewed their depredations, and William W. Phelps and others offered themselves as a ransom for the Saints, being willing to be scourged, or to die, if that would appease the anger of the mob. The mob would not accept this sacrifice, however, but continued to utter threats of violence against the whole Church.
This persecution culminated in the Saints being driven from their homes in Jackson County, in November, 1833. Mob leaders warned Brother Phelps and others to flee for their lives, or they would be killed. Despite repeated appeals, which Elder Phelps helped to frame, to the governor of Missouri, and to the president of the United States, no protection or redress was ever given them.
When the exiled Saints in Clay County were organized into a stake, David Whitmer was chosen president, with William W. Phelps and John Whitmer as counselors. He took a prominent part in all matters pertaining to the welfare of the Saints in Missouri.
In the early part of 1835, he and his son Waterman were called to Kirtland, where they made their home with the family of the Prophet Joseph Smith and assisted a committee appointed to compile the "Book of Doctrine and Covenants." About this time, Elder Phelps subscribed $500 toward the erection of the Kirtland Temple. When the Church purchased the Egyptian mummies and papyrus from Michael H. Chandler in 1835, William W. Phelps served as one of the scribes in the translation by Joseph Smith of the "Book of Abraham."

[1413] William W. Phelps married Sally Waterman, April 28, 1815, at Smyrna, Chenango County, New York. Volume I of "The Waterman Family," by Donald Lines Jacobus shows her as a daughter of David Basset Waterman (Flavius, Ebenezer, Thomas, Thomas, Robert) and Jerusha Case (daughter of Roger and Molly (Owen) Case), and her date of birth as July 24, 1797.
[1503]
William was a member of the Mormon Battalion. Some members did not rejoin Church members in Utah, but remained in California.

Education Pioneer
John Morgan founded Morgan Commercial College, which taught many prominent early day Utahns
Last updated 06/26/1998, 12:01 a.m. MT
By Dennis Lythgoe, Deseret News staff writer
His male students included Heber J. Grant, Orson F. Whitney, Mathias Cowley, J. Golden Kimball, James H. Moyle, Joseph T. Kingsbury and Brigham H. Roberts.
Some of the women at his school were Ruth May Fox, Dora Stringham Ashley, Minerva Hinckley, Lelia Tuckett Freeze and Mattie Bailey.
John Morgan, a pioneer of early Utah education, brought these and numerous other Utah students under his wing at Salt Lake City's Morgan Commercial College.
Morgan, who was born in 1842 in Indiana, farmed until the age of 20, then enlisted in the Union army, where he served honorably until the end of the Civil War.
Afterward, he moved to Poughkeepsie, N.Y., and enrolled as a student in Eastman's Commercial College. After graduation, he accepted a contract to drive a herd of Texas longhorn beef cattle from Kansas City to Salt Lake City.
The Great American Desert appealed to Morgan, so he stayed, operating his college first out of the old Deseret Museum Building, then relocating to the southwest corner of Richards and South Temple.
The college included Utah's first free public library and reading room.
Because interest in a business education was keen, Morgan soon had so many students he was forced to move to a more spacious two-story building at 257 S. Main.
When Morgan married one of his students, 16-year-old Helen Melvina ("Mellie") Groesbeck, her father gave them a block of land as a wedding present. So in 1869, Morgan built a new college at 144 W. 100 South.
The college thrived from 1867 until 1874, when it closed due to intense competition from the University of Deseret, soon to become the University of Utah.
Although founded before Morgan College in 1850, the University of Deseret initially struggled, then took a 16-year hiatus until Morgan College's success inspired its comeback.
At its peak, Morgan College had 700 students, compared with the University of Deseret's meager 200. As principal, Morgan freely spread such pithy words of wisdom as: "Do not allow the long winter evenings before you to be thrown away; or worse, do not allow yourself to be drawn into the company of the vicious, within the walls of drinking saloons and billiard halls."
When Morgan College was founded, there were no other schools in the territory offering education above the elementary grades. When the college first opened, the subjects taught were bookkeeping, grammar, spelling, mental and practical arithmetic, commercial and international law and business correspondence.
Although not a member of the LDS Church, Morgan lived in the home of LDS Bishop Joseph L. Heywood of the 17th Ward. Some of the leading citizens of the territory were uneasy that many young LDS men and women were attending a school administered by a non-Mormon.
These concerns were alleviated in November 1867, when Morgan was baptized into the LDS Church.
Besides Morgan himself, Morgan College had seven teachers, whose teaching methods were highly practical. It took a student from six months to two years to complete a course of study.
Periodically, eminent businessmen, bankers, lawyers and merchants gave lectures to the students.
The college maintained miniature grocery stores, dry goods stores, brokerage houses and a bank to enable students to dabble in business life. If a student wanted to operate a grocery store, he did so, buying merchandise at wholesale and selling it at retail.
After the college closed, Morgan served in the territorial Legislature, then as an LDS missionary and later as president of the Southern States Mission.
Finally, he spent 10 years as a member of the LDS Church's Council of Seventy. He died unexpectedly at the premature age of 52, after suffering for several weeks with typhoid-malaria.
On May 8, 1959, the eloquent and charismatic Morgan was honored by his son, Nicholas G. Morgan Sr., when a Vermont granite monument to his memory and to that of Morgan College was unveiled at 257 S. Main in front of S.H. Kress Co.
A fountain adorned each side, and on top of the monument was a bust of Morgan, sculpted by Ortho Fairbanks.
Two bronze plaques were embedded in the base, one showing a picture of the historic institution, the first commercial college west of the Mississippi, and the other recounting its brief history.
Karen Matthews, a granddaughter of John Morgan, remembers a day several years ago when she noticed Morgan's head had disappeared from the monument.
"I was very upset. I called the mayor and asked 'Where is the bust of John Morgan?' "
No one knew. About a year later, Matthews' cousin, Bud Morgan, got a call from someone who said he had the bust. He said a friend had picked it up at a garage sale, then gave it to him when he moved to California.
Sure enough, family members recovered the bust, in surprisingly good shape, from a home on the Avenues.
Although the Morgan family made certain the head was fastened more securely, the monument had to be removed during the recent construction of the American Stores Building.
So Matthews is planning the return of the monument to its rightful home on Sept. 12, with most of the students' names permanently etched into it.
"I thought it would be fun for people to know if their ancestors went to the commercial college," says Matthews.
Ortho Fairbanks has redesigned the monument, with a marble base. He replaced the fountains on either side with a young male student and a young female student.
As John Morgan once said, "A school room without order is a public nuisance."
From the University of Utah Marriott Library
John Morgan fought in the Civil War as the Color Sergeant for the 123rd Regiment of Illinois during the last two years of the Civil War, 1862-1864.
Morgan's unit fought in three preliminary battles near Stevenson, Alabama, before the great battle of Chuckamanga in Georgia. John Morgan played an important part for which he was given official recognition. The library has a large collection of photos of John Morgan.

John is listed as a Lieutenant in the "Samborne & Sanborn Family History". John was arrested October 1684 at his house in Old Hampton, New Hampshire, for not admitting the title of Mason to his property there. The next year he was chosen to represent Hampton in General Assembly at Portsmouth, New Hampshire.
His religion was Puritan, and had come under considerable pressure from Quakers, but remained Puritan. John was commissioned Lt. of Hampton forces.
From "Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England, 1620-33"
John Samborne received from his maternal grandfather Stephen Bachiler land in Hampton a deed for land, as follows:
On 20 April 1647 "Steven Bachiler late of Hampton in the County of Norfolk in New England & now of Strabery Bank for ... love and affection towards my four grandchildren John, Stephen & William Samborn & Nathaniell Batchiller all now or lately of Hampton" deeded to grandson John Samborne "all of my dwelling house & land or ground whether arable, meadow & pasture or other ground with their appurtenances together with all the buildings, commons, profits, privileges & immunities whatsoever to the same or any part thereof belonging or in any wise appertaining, the greater part thereof being now or lately in the tenure, possession or occupation of the said John Samborn & other part thereof not yet particularly appointed by the town &c. (excepting out of this grant the land with the appurtenances which I formerly sold to William Howard & Thomas Ward)," said John Samborne to pay £20 apiece to each of the other three grandchildren [NHPLR 13:221].

Washington County, WI death certificate. Volume 2, Page 253.
John was a blacksmith by trade.
John was best man for Jacob Terlinden. On the marriage certificate inGermany it was mentioned that their father, Peter was no longer livingand their mother could not read or write. John was also the only onethat signed his name in English letters, the rest was all German script.He must have been practicing to come to the United States which he didn'tachieve until two years later. John's father is listed as Peter"Kleinterlinden". (Klein in German means tiny). Klein or tiny goes wayback to the early 1700's. Eichloch was under French rule then and thebirth record is in French. John Terlinden's application for citizenship- Oath was Oct 25, 1852 -Court #1418-Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. It listsarrival date of Oct 1851 to New York. Witnesses were Wm. Scheid and JohnRohrer. Final date of papers listed as Dec 15, 1858-Vol.A P 285. Johndied in the home of his son-in-law, Wm. Backhaus. Between 1860 and 1863John moved from Ashford to Wayne.
According to Loraine Stindt there were lots of land sales between John &Catherine with the Scheid's and the Terlinden's.
[11400]
Catharina's sponsors were: Cath. Scheid.
Katherine is buried with her mother in a single grave on a cemetery inWayne, WI. The grave is actually about 1/4 mile east of the cemetery inthe brambles on top of a big hill. There are only two or three othergraves surrounding it. The gravestone was originally knocked over,probably from nature itself but one day we discovered that someone hadplaced it upright again. I have a picture of it. So far, we have noidea what she died of or what her daughter died of. All we know is thatthey died within hours of each other on the same day. Originally, themarkers read as follows:
At the north: Katherine Scheid - Born a Weiskopf
Died 1863 - age 65
At the south: Catherine Terlinden
Born: Jan 15, 1835
Died: May 21, 1863
These Scheid's were known as the "Cathedral Scheid's back then in Germany.
[11314]
Mrs. Backhaus belonged to the sparse remainder of the old pioneer womenof the county. She was a kindly and much esteemed woman. Her familylife and her relations to the world were all that could be wished, andher children and all those who knew her iwll preserve for her, a kindmemory.
She leaves 10 grandchildren and one great grandchild. Funeral serviceswere held at Evangelical REformed Church in the town of Wayne, the Rev.A. graff officiating. Burial took place in the congregation's cemetery.
[11401]
Phillip is buried with his sister, Ottilie. His wife, Augusta, is buriedall by herself.
In the 1880 U.S. Census, Augusta Butske is listed as a servant/housemaidin the household of John and Ulricka. Phillip was then 25 years old andAugusta 20 years old. Isn't this romantic??? Sounds like a romanceblossomed between these two!
The 1900 Census says that there were 8 kids, 7 living.
[11402] Peter died of a stroke after a lingering illness. His funeral was heldat his son, Ben's home. Peter had blond hair and was a very easy goingperson.

Anton and Minnie lived in Quincy, and their children were born there.
(Jim Bremser says there was information on Anton in a directory at
Camp Point, ILL.) - Found it later:
Bremser Anton, groceries and saloon, 7th and Ohio streets; residence, same. He was born in Schwalbach, Nassau, Europe, Nov. 2, 1844 and emigrated to America, May 21, 1868, landing at New York City, and coming from there direct to Qunicy. He married Miss Mina Miller in Qunicy, Jan. 14, 1870; she was born in Qunicy, Ill., May 19.1849. Four children: Edward, born March 30, 1871; Sophia, born March 26, 1874; Frederick, born Jan. 4, 1876, and Eliza, born May 19, 1878. Religion, Lutheran; is a member of Qunicy Grove No. 10, U. A. O. D., and is a cabinet-maker by profession.
According to Ned Bremser, only German was spoken in the home of
Anton and Minnie. The German area of town to the south was called
Calf Town. Jim Bremser read that Minnie's parents died in the 1830's in
the hog cholera epidemic.
There were many families of Muellers/Millers in Quincy according to Ned
Bremser.
[11533]
Uncle Fred was a bachelor and lived with his sister Elise. He lost a lot of
money in the Depression, like all working people did.
[11534]
Aunt Elise had white hair which she wore in a bun. She worked at
Grossman's hat department. She was hit by a car which fractured her
hip. A blood clot formed, and she died six days later. This happened
sometime after Tom Bremser was born. (1952?)
[11532]
The story , as per his son Ned Bremser, is that Laurence's wife's father ,
Joseph Wall, used his pull in town to get Laurence deferred from military
service in World War I. Laurence was in his early 20's at the time. He
regretted it for the rest of his life. Will Wall also set Laurence up in the
ice cream business after he married Mildred.
