MARRIAGE: MARRIAGE RECORD

Remarks- I need to research this again. I miss them the first time.BIOGRAPHY: Asked Frances Swendsen (email: frances.swendsen@shaw.ca) a relative of James Cordon Casson Cahoon where the Casson name came from.
Her answer: In regards to James Cordon Casson Cahoon – I don’t know where the Cordon came from – I think that was just a name that they chose. There is a story about the name Casson. James’ mother was Mary Wilson Dugdale. Her first husband was James Casson. They had two children (Sarah and Hannah – both died before their first birthday). James Casson died (6 Dec 1844) 11 months after the birth of their second child. Mary then married William Farrington Cahoon (his 2nd wife) 23 Sep 1845. They had four children and they all had the name Casson as part of their name.BURIAL: I am able to find William E French, Martha's second husband) and Adelia D French (William's first wife who died in 1924) buried at Hill Spring, Alberta, Canada cemetery called Ensign Pioneer (Mount View Mennonite) cemetery. I am unable to find Martha Braithwaite who married William French in 1925 and he died months later and was buried with first wife, Adelia. Martha's first husband - she divorced - Martha's second husband James Cahoon is buried in Manti, Utah with his first wife.

BIOGRAPHY: Autobiography
October18, 1871
Moroni City,
Sanpete County
My History of Sarah Pippin Jolley’s Life
I was born in North Carolina, Franklin County, twenty-five miles east of
Ralaigh, on the 28th of May 1812, My parents lived there until I was about
fourteen years old. Then they came to Tennessee; the western part to
Weekley County. There I married to Reuben M. Jolley, on the 13th of January
1829.
William G. Jolley was born the 8thl0f November 1829 in Tennessee. Then Washington L. Jolley was born May 16, 1831 in Tennessee, Weekley Co. R.B. Jolley was born March 16,1834 in Tennessee, Weekley Co. Sarah Ann was born December 18, 1838 in Tennessee, Weekley Co. Marion Jolley was born April 9, 1841 in Weekley Co. Tennessee. Reuben M. Jolley was born in Illinois, Hancock Co. Nauvoo, June 4th, 1843. Joseph was born in Illinois, Hancock Co. Nauvoo, March 24th, 1846. Henry Jolley was born November 28th, 1848, Iowa, VanBuran Co. Sarah G. was born in Utah Co. the l7” of September 1862 at Payson City.
We lived in Tennessee, Weekley Co. until 1848. My husband and myself, we embraced the gospel and were baptized on the 18th of February in 1842. The 21st of April the same year, we started for Nauvoo. We lived through the troubles while Joseph and Hyrum were murdered at Carthage jail. My husband and myself were there to behold that bloody scene. I was one that was one in the company that followed the corps to the Mansion, when we all went home and came on the morrow to see them, which was a sight to behold. Then the word came to build a temple. My husband and the boys worked on the temple until it was done. Many days they worked and had nothing to eat but bread and water, but it was good. I did not complain. I had the privilege of going through the temple with my husband, so I was paid in full for all my troubles.
In 1846, we left Nauvoo, crossed the river, on the 5th of May. In Iowa, VanBuran Co. there we lived a little over two years. We all were working to get something to come up to the Church. We had traveled around until we had not much to travel with but a large family. We were getting ready to start to Salt Lake when my husband was taken sick. He was sick twenty days and died on the 29th of April 1849. There I was left with ten children, no house nor home; among strangers, a babe in my arms three months old, I was broke up. When he was on his death bed he would talk and tell me what he wanted me to do a little at a time until he told me he wanted, he said he was going to leave me for a while, but he wanted me, as soon as I could, to come to the valleys of the mountains, to the basin of the church and bring the children all with me, so I strive to do so. I have ever born it in mind. I buried him the first day of May, at Keasackway grave yard, VanBuran, Co., Iowa. In 1849, 2nd. day of July, my children and me started for Council Bluffs. There we wintered. Next spring, the 6th day of June we started for Salt Lake. In 1850 I had a hard time with my little children, but the hand of Lord was over me and children and all we had with us, Cholera was very bad that year. Two of my children came near unto death, but the Lord seen fit to spare them.
I arrived in the valleys on the 27th of September in 1850. I had not much to live upon, times were very hard for the grasshoppers and crickets had eaten everything up.
Grandfather Jolley came on before we did. When he heard we were coming he met me and the children on Imagration St. He took us to his home. We stopped there a few days. He said he was going to move to Utah County, to a place called Pleasant Grove. He moved there about the 15th of October. Then my boys moved a little house to help to make a fort. On the 20th of December, grandfather Jolley died and was buried at the same place. I then felt as if I was I was lost again, but had to so the best I could.
In 1852, Washington L. Jolley was called to go on a mission to the states to preach the gospel. The Indians proved to be very bad. In 1853 I had. two of my boys shot. One never got over it, the other is living but is a cripple in his right arm.
