About Jerusha Parks Burdick
Daughter of Benjamin Marvin Parks & Lucy Clark
Married Alden Burdick
Jerusha was married to Alden Burdick but the date is in doubt. The Ancestral File gives the date of the marriage as 1845 in Nauvoo, Illinois but the oldest of Alden and Jerusha's eleven children was born about 1824 with younger children being born along over the years. It is inconcievable that Alden and Jerusha were not married all those years. The Ancestral File may be in error or it might be referring to sealing in the Nauvoo Temple which took place years after their civil marriage. It seems far more likely that Alden married Jerusha about 1823 when he was about twenty.
Notes

She gradually gained a knowledge of medicine, which she practiced as her profession in Carson City, Nev., and in California.
