Family History: Pioneer Story

Jeana Rankin has made available to us quite a few photos from the Mills Family archives that we'll be sharing here on the blog. The family connection for the below history is:

Budd and Jerold Simons' parents are Jean Mads Simons and Catherine Mower;
Catherine Mower's parents are Hyrum Deloss Mower and Catherine Ann Mills;
Catherine Ann Mills' parents are Henry Richard Mills and Mercy Malinda Mills;
Mercy Malinda Mills' parents are Richard Webley Westwood and Catherine Dallin;
and, Richard Webley Westwood's parents are Joseph Westwood Jr and Ann Webley.

You'll notice in the third paragraph that Joseph and Ann Westwood are mentioned, and you can read their story as the history goes on. Richard Webley Westwood is also mentioned.
