49Sheri E. Slaughter: Index of Early LDS in St. Louis, Missouri

On a cold February 1846 morning in Nauvoo, eleven-year-old EllenPartington bid a tearful farewell to her mother while preparing to cross thefrozen Mississippi River with her surrogate family. Little did Ellen know that itwould be nearly eight years before she saw her family again in the Salt LakeValley. She would be married with her own son when next she saw the peopleshe loved. Ellen’s mother, Ann, who had been so terribly ill while in Nauvoo,probably believed she was saying her last earthly goodbye to her young daugh-ter.

Ann Taylor Partington was one of the first English women to embrace theMormon faith in Preston, England, where she was baptized in 1837 in the RiverRibble. With her husband Ralph and their four children, they emigrated fromLiverpool aboard the ship Swanton in January 1843 to join the growing numberof Saints in Nauvoo. Shortly after the ship sailed, Ann gave birth to a son theynamed Joseph Hyrum. Because both Ralph and Ann suffered severely from agueafter landing in Nauvoo, they were unable to work to support their family.Willard and Jeanetta Richards, seeing the family’s plight, decided to adopt eight-year-old Ellen. She reluctantly went to live with the Richards family where shehid food to take to her mother who was near death’s door. Another neighbortook care of the Partington’s baby, Joseph Hyrum, who soon died.

Although the Richards were kind and loving, Ellen missed her parents, hersisters Catherine and Sarah, and her brother William. Jeanetta Richards’untimely death caused Ellen to long for her family even more. Mother Ann gavebirth to another son, James Taylor Partington, on 3 May 1845 in Nauvoo.Eventually, Ralph regained his health and worked as a carpenter on the temple

where Ellen Partington was sealed to Willard Richards as his daughter.As the Saints prepared to leave their beloved city on the Mississippi, Ellen

anxiously watched as her father Ralph built a wagon to take his family on theirlong journey. However, they could not afford provisions and were unable toleave with the Richards family that frigid February of 1846. Along the cold,snowy trail in Iowa, Ellen watched and hoped for her family to join the pioneercompany, but the Partingtons never arrived.

Ralph and Ann Partington were among the poor Saints forced from theirNauvoo homes during the summer of 1846. They crossed the river to Montrose,Iowa, knowing they lacked the provisions to continue. Like many NauvooSaints, instead of crossing Iowa, they ventured 190 miles down the river to St.Louis in search of jobs.

In 1848 at Winter Quarters, Ellen Partington once again prepared for a longjourney with the Richards family. For two years, she had vainly waited for herfamily to arrive. She occasionally received letters or presents from her family inSt. Louis, which she cherished, but they also caused her to yearn even more forthem. In Dr. Richards’ home, Ellen felt she “had too many bosses” and longed“to run away to St. Louis, if I had known how to do it. . . . I did want to see moth-er so bad, that I could hardly stand it.”1 During the spring of 1848, Ellen scout-ed the banks of the Missouri River for each steamboat from St. Louis to arrive.She would run on board and peer into every face, but “the faces I looked for werenot there . . . [and] I gave vent to my feelings in a good crying spell.” Her folksdid send her some good clothing and shoes, which helped immeasurably in thejourney west.

Ralph Partington found work as a carpenter in St. Louis from 1846 to 1853,and Ann Partington gave birth to another son, Heber George Partington, on 14March 1850. Ellen never saw this brother, as he died in St. Louis on 3 September1850. The Partingtons remained at St. Louis until 1853 when they had sufficientmeans to cross the prairie and plains with Captain Moses Clawson’s St. LouisCompany.

Ellen Partington (Richards)2 married James Moburn Kay on 19 June 1851in Salt Lake. Finally, in September 1853, Ellen Partington Kay had the “blessedprivilege of meeting my father, mother, brothers and sisters, after a separation ofalmost eight years.” Her mother “held up her hands and thanked God, that Hehad spared her life to see that day.” Baby Willard Kay was eleven months oldwhen he met his grandparents for the first time. Ellen’s brother “Jimmy” hadbeen a nine-month-old baby when she last saw him in Nauvoo. He was now aneight-year-old whose “black eyes . . . were sparkling with fun.”

The poignant story of the Partington family is just one of the many dramascarried out during the Church exodus. Not all Nauvoo families were able tomake the 1846 pilgrimage across Iowa. Many families “went south” to St. Louis,where they found employment to pay their passage to Zion. This was just oneway in which St. Louis played a vital role during the early “gathering” years of


the Church. There were an estimated fifteen hundred Latter-day Saints in St.Louis during the winter of 1846–47.3 According to the federal census, in 1840,St. Louis had a population of 16,469 (History of the Church, 4:xxiv). During thisimportant period of Church history, Latter-day Saints comprised nearly 10 per-cent of the population of St. Louis.

The Significance of St. Louis to the MormonsSt. Louis, Missouri, became known to the Latter-day Saints in the late

1830s when Oliver Cowdery, Parley P. Pratt, and three other missionaries passedthrough on their way to Independence in Jackson County; and since that time,St. Louis has been prominently connected with the history of the Church.Thousands of LDS emigrants landed in America at New Orleans and than trav-eled up the Mississippi by river boat and located temporarily at St. Louis untilthey earned means to take them to the Salt Lake Valley.4

Following Governor Lilburn Boggs’ 1838 anti-Mormon “exterminationorder,” many St. Louis residents sided with the Mormons and sympathized withtheir plight. Several leading St. Louis newspapers condemned the actions ofGovernor Boggs.

When the St. Louis Stake of Zion was organized in 1855, the LDS mem-bership there was numbered at about three thousand. Thousands of missionariesbound for the eastern states and Europe made their way through St. Louis, wherethe members gave them food, lodging, supplies, and financial aid to continuetheir journeys.

“Throughout the Missouri and Illinois periods of the Church, up to thecoming of the railroad to Utah in 1869 and beyond, St. Louis was the mostimportant non-Mormon city in Church history. . . . St. Louis has played twoimportant roles in Mormon history—as a city of refuge and as an emigrant cen-ter.”5

Almost every major Church leader of the period was connected with theChurch in St. Louis, including Joseph Smith, Brigham Young, Heber C.Kimball, John Taylor, Parley P. Pratt, Sidney Rigdon, Oliver Crowdery, MartinHarris, Frederick G. Williams, Willard Richards, Charles C. Rich, Franklin E.Richards, Ezra Taft Benson, George A. Smith, Orson Pratt, Jedediah M. Grant,Orson Hyde, Amasa Lyman, and others.6 These names are not included in theindex that follows.

In 1855, the Church encouraged European emigrants to sail to the EastCoast; and by 1856, the emigrants no longer went through St. Louis on theirroute to Utah. St. Louis gradually lost its importance to the Church.

The St. Louis LuminaryIn the interest of the Church, the St. Louis Luminary was a weekly newspa-

per published at St. Louis from 22 November 1854 to 15 December 1855. It con-sisted of a four-page folio, each page containing five wide columns. The paper

52 Nauvoo Journal

was edited by Apostle Erastus Snow and was filled with details of importantChurch events and emigration news. The subscription price was $2 per annum.Its motto was “Light Shineth in Darkness, and the Darkness Comprehendeth itnot.”7

Rationale for an Index of St. Louis SaintsTo date, there has never been a compiled inventory of Latter-day Saints

who were born, lived, worked, or died in St. Louis, Missouri, during the early his-tory of the Church. Mormons are noted for keeping good records, but such wasnot the case in early St. Louis. The clerks, as well as the general membership,were constantly coming and going, so the written records, if kept at all, werebrief and incomplete. The purpose of the “St. Louis” index that follows is tocompile as many names as possible of early LDS members who spent time in St.Louis. This list does not include the thousands of LDS immigrants who simplypassed through St. Louis on their way to Nauvoo or Utah.

The most important records used in this compilation are the St. LouisBranch membership records for the years 1847–62, which consist of three sepa-rate lists of names. First, there is a list of members who attended the conferencein St. Louis on 31 January 1847. Second is a record of members’ deaths from1849–62. Third is the record of blessings of children 1857–62.

St. Louis Branch Members at the 31 January 1847 St. Louis Conference(StLM)

At this conference, the clerks calculated the LDS membership populationat 1,478. The list of members present at this conference is a good indication ofwhich members went from Nauvoo to St. Louis in the 1846 exodus. An actualcount of the names written by the clerk at the conference is about 599 (includ-ing unnamed children), so obviously many names were not recorded or many aremembers who did not attend the conference.

St. Louis Branch Death Records 1849–62 (StLD)This record contains approximately 350 deaths. The years “1849–1862” on

the book heading are deceiving, as there are only two deaths listed for the year1849 when the huge cholera epidemic began. From 1 January to 30 July 1849,4,547 people in the city died of the dreaded disease.8 Certainly hundreds ofLatter-day Saints must have died during the year 1849, and those deaths werenot recorded. Likewise, only a few deaths were recorded in the years 1850 and1851, as deaths from cholera continued to plague the city. It appears that therecord was kept more consistently starting in the summer of 1852. However,even during that period, not all members’ deaths were recorded. Included in thisrecord were twenty-one deaths at sea aboard the ship Clara Wheeler, sailing fromLiverpool to New Orleans, occurring during December 1854 and January 1855.The deaths were recorded on pages eight and nine of the St. Louis Branch death


records. Because many of the families may have settled in St. Louis for awhile,they are included in the index that follows.

Sadly, the parents’ names were very seldom included in the children’s deathrecords and were never included in the adult death records.

St. Louis Branch Blessing Records 1857–62 (StLB)From 1847–57, hundreds, maybe thousands, of LDS babies were born in St.

Louis. The record of “blessings given to children” did not begin until 1857 whenSt. Louis was no longer on the emigration route of the Church. By then, mostof the members had immigrated to Utah, so only 113 blessings are included.These records are sketchy and incomplete. Many times the names of the parentswere left from the record, or a birthday or blessing date was not included.

As incomplete as the branch records are, they are the only written docu-mentation of members in St. Louis at the time of the actual events. Most refer-ences to time spent in St. Louis come from reminiscences or biographies, ratherthan from documents.

MethodologyFinding references to St. Louis from thousands of biographies, autobiogra-

phies, and reminiscences would be an inconceivable task without computer aids.However, with the help of LDS Family History Suite by Infobases, Inc. on CD-ROM (1996 edition), it was easy to extract references to St. Louis from Pioneersand Prominent Men of Utah,9 LDS Biographical Encyclopedia,10 Church Chronology,Susan Easton Black’s compilation of Early Membership of The Church of JesusChrist of Latter-day Saints,11 and the DUP compilations Our Pioneer Heritage

12 and

Daughters of the Utah Pioneers and Their Mothers.13 With this computer program,the key word St. Louis was used to highlight all persons or events associated withthe city.

Is such an index of St. Louis names necessary? For anyone doing research onearly Mormon families, such an index may be significant. Many children wereborn to these early Mormon families in St. Louis, and probably just as many chil-dren died there. Many early members never made it to Utah. They may havedied on the ocean, on the river, or in St. Louis. Some may have left the Churchand simply remained in St. Louis. These “lost” St. Louis Saints may help com-plete someone’s family picture. The index that follows will also give a more com-plete view of how important St. Louis was in the early history of the Church.

Is this index complete? Of course not. Hundreds of St. Louis Saints neverhad their names recorded in any record and were never mentioned in anyone’sbiography or reminiscence. This index is only a beginning.

Whenever possible, enough information about a person has been includedto distinguish him or her from someone else with the same name. Errors mayhave occurred in the transcription of records; and, of course, there may be errorsin the sources used to collect this information. Errors are not the fault of the

54 Nauvoo Journal

Nauvoo Journal. None of the biographical data listed with the names should betaken as fact, since this information was taken from secondary sources. Each per-son mentioned in the index was at one time a member of The Church of JesusChrist of Latter-day Saints. Not all of the people in this index stayed with theChurch.
