Welsh Mormon History "A History of William John Lewis and Jane Davis" (www.welshmormonhistory.org) Notes: 12 Jun 1850 Captain Gardner Snow’s company of emigrating Saints, the second fifty of William Snow’s hundred left the Missouri river for G. S. L. Valley. From a letter written Aug. 28, 1850 at the upper Platte Ferry, signed by Joseph Young and Gardner Snow and addressed to the First Presidency in the Valley, and forwarded to the valley by a special messenger (David Lewis), we call the following: “We are the second fifty of Captain Snow’s hundred; Gardner Snow is captain. Joseph Young, president, Winslow Farr, consellor, Lucious N. Scovil and Geo. W. Parish, marshalls, Aaron M. York, John Cater and Thomas Rich, captains of tens, and Samuel Pollock, clerk of the fifty. By council of our brethren from the Valley, we, by mutual consent, have divided our company for the convenience of traveling. Brother Truman Leonard and Harmon Pearsons are the captains of the tens that are not with us; they are in our advance and we cannot give an account of their situation. We were met by Brothers Stratton and Hanks at the branch of the La Bonta on Tuesday, Aug. 20th. They read to us a document from the Presidency and Counsel in the Valley. We were truly thankful to hear from you and have concluded to send a messenger forthwith (Brother David Lewis) in advance of Brothers Stratton and Hanks to represent to you our situation as early as possible. When we left the Missouri river as a camp, we were short of teams and had no extra ones. We have 42 wagons in our company, besides those with Brothers Leonard and Pearsons. About 20 head of our cattle are crippled, an if any more should give out, we shall be under the necessity of leaving some of our substance by the way-side. But we feel that we need all we have, as we are among the poorest of our people, yet rich in faith. If you could send to our assistance, as soon as possible, from 12 to 16 yokes of oxen and 2 wagons, you will confer on us a lasting favor that we will duly appreciate. With such help we may extricate ourselves, our wives and our little ones from these mountains.” Gardner Snow |
