• Notes

  Family Group Record by Nauvoo Land and Records OTHER SOURCES: Internet Research: rootsweb.com: World Connect, 1 page Name transcribed from A "Grave" Experience at the Mormon Pioneer Winter Quarters Cemetery. By Carlyle B. Jensen and Gail Geo. Holmes, Published by Authors October 1999. Quoted from with permission of Gail Geo. Holmes. The record is a Commencement to bury in the burying ground at Winter Quarters, North West Corner. Spellings, dates and etc. are as written in the original record - mistakes and all." Stated in record above for Mary Croostow wife of James Croostow, "James Croostow; age 61 years, 8 mos., 7 days; husband of Mary Croostow; deceased, Dec. 28, 1846; birthplace, Scotland; birthdate, April 1785, grave no. 47." Name transcribed from Winter Quarters Wards Membership Lists 1846 - 1848. Taken from a variety of historical sources. They are not complete, and because of the difficulty reading handwriting, may not be entirely accurate. Most of the lists seem to be from the winter of 1846 - 47, but some are from later. In addition, people often moved to better housing, thus changing wards. Sources for these lists are: bishop's reports, high council meeting minutes, tithing records, and 'census' reports of widow, soldier's wives and other unassigned members of wards. The original records are available at the Historical Department, Archives Division, of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Salt Lake City Utah. Note: Stated in above record; "7 in family, Widow of Robert Crookstone".
