Egg on my face....


(idiom) to be extremely embarrassed

Well, after my last post, I received an e-mail from my mother, the genealogist, to remind me (except I didn't know, or didn't remember) that we have two other ancestral lines that crossed the plains. So, in case they are in heaven cursing me out for forgetting them, here's my tribute to them:

Horace Burr Owens, Sr.
Born June 23rd, 1819, Mercer, Mercer, Pennsylvania

Sally Ann Layne Owens
Born Febuary 21, 1829 Glasgow, Barren, Kentucky

Arrived in Salt Lake Valley 24-27 September 1852


George Bryant Gardner
Born April 4, 1813, New Ipswich, Hilsbrough, New Hampshire

Arrived in Salt Lake Valley October 14th, 1850

Harriet Mariah Beebe Gardner
Born February 21, 1836, Milo, Yates, New York

Arrived In Salt Lake Valley in an unidentified company 1852

Married October 16th, 1852.

Thank you, my ancestors, for having the faith necessary to make that difficult journey.
