Lived in Wellsville, Utah for 39 years (last years) of her life.
A SHORT SKETCH OF HER HISTORY.
Mrs. Archibald was born in Linlithgowshire, Scotland, on Feb. 11th, 1818, and was married to Thomas Archibald in 1835. She was baptized a member in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in 1848, by Robert Dean. Her husband died April 6th, 1857, leaving her with ten children, one of whom died while young. She emigrated to this country in 1862 with four children. Two of her children preceded her to this county and three followed. At New York her trunks were stolen and they were left without a change of clothes. She crossed the Atlantic on the ship William Tapscott, and crossed the plains with a team in Captain Hayett's company. She has now seven children alive:-- One son at Cardston, Albert county, Canada; one son and daughter at Rexburg, Idaho; one son at Clarkston, Cache county, Utah, and two sons and one daughter in Wellsville, and they all have large families. She has 110 grandchildren and 123 great-grandchildren. At her 80th birthday she is surrounded by some of her children, grandchildren and friends and has everything to make her comfortable in her declining years.
Today was our ward conference and we had several visitors from Logan and other places. We have had a delightful day enjoying the speeches of those who are our friends and brethren.
Wishing to be remembered through the MINER to all my friends in Rock Springs and with well wishes for the MINER and Editor, I am, as ever,
HAYSEED.
Wellsville, Feb. 26, 1898.
