Tidbits: My son in law Russ Beck has John D. Lee in his ancestory and Curtis Beesley is a great grand son of Ebinezer Beesley who has written the music for a number
of hymns in the LDS hymn book. My wife, Carol Lu is the great granddaughter of Anders Mortensen who with his family were members of the Willie Handcart
Company where one of the Captains was John Chislett who taught the gospel to the Solomon’s in CornwallEngland while on a mission there. On my mothers
side of the family we have at least 2 ancestors who received their endowment in the original NauvooTemple in 1845. They were Crandall’s and Guymons.
