We had a great group of birthday boys and girls this month: William Woodland, Lorenzo Hatch, Elizabeth Fox, John Welch, Elizabeth Briggs Welch, Jane Muir, Hiram Cramer, Margaret Mendell, William Hunter, and John Cottam.
Leave a comment about who is your favorite January ancestor and why--you could win a prize! Something pretty exciting, perhaps a framed photo of that ancestor...

William Woodland! The lasso/eloping to SLC story rules!
ReplyDeleteWilliam Hunter! Helping to build the beautiful St. George temple and missing an iceberg! Although, I'd also like to cast a vote for Mr. Bacon, (noticed he wasn't on the list) for the fact that he shares Eliza and Julian's birthday too!
ReplyDeleteWell, I would vote for Eliza R. Snow, but since she's not an official ancestor, I say either Margaret Miller Mendell or William Hunter. Margaret because of her funny hair and the neat experience I had with her relatives in the temple, and William because of all the awesome things he did. I sure wish we could have his writings! All of our other ancestors are amazing too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing--William it is! I will get photos of both Williams to David and Jayne. Eliza's probably seen enough ancestral photos around the house lately :-)
