About George Crowther

Mormon Pioneer Overland Travel 1847–1868

   The Crowthers must have crossed the plains in 1857 for the following reasons: 1) They had a child born in Illinois in March 1856; 2) They do not appear in the 1856 general financial records of the church in Utah; 3) Another child was born in Utah 15 Aug. 1858. They may have traveled with the Israel Evans handcart company.
