Family Pioneers

The Pioneer period of Utah history is from 24 July 1847, when the first immigrant settlers entered this deseret area, until 10 May 1869 when the railroad from the east and west met at Promontory, Utah. During those 22 years, nearly 100,000 pioneers traveled to this valley by foot, handcart, or ox drawn wagon. They came from all parts of the world.

The following list comprises family members who came to the Utah Territory/State of Deseret; died crossing the plains; or was born in the Utah Territory/State of Deseret between 1847 and 1869.

This list is a work in progress, if you have additional family members that need to be added to the list let us know.

(?) Research has not been completed to know if there is information at the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers S. L. C., Utah Museum

One of the purposes of this list is to help family members not waste their time and money on copying information that has already been copied by the family organization. If you would like to help in gathering all of our family information that is at the museum, take this list along and copy the information for those pioneer family members with a (=) by their name. Then if you would make an extra copy and forward the information to the family archives to be shared with other family members. Thank You. Family Mailing Address
