LIFE HISTORY OF WILLIAM HIRAM CARPENTER
(A MEMBER OF THE MORMON BATTALION)
WRITTEN BY JOSEPHINE, CARPENTER LAWSON (GRANDDAUGHTER)
William Hiram Carpenter was born July 22, 1820, at Glenville, Schenectady County, New York, He was the son of Hiram Carpenter and Elizabeth Schermerhorn.
William Hiram Carpenter's ancestry has always been of great interest to his numerous descendants. He can trace his pedigree to that eminent puritan, William Carpenter, who in the year 1638 came to America in the ship "Bevis", settling his family in Rehoboth in the colony of Massachusetts.
From this ancestor his pedigree can be traced to the noble family of Carpenters from which the Earl of Tyronnell is descended in the County of Hereford and other parts of England. In 1303 (the 20th year of the reign of Edward IV(?)) John Carpenter appeared who was a Member of Parliament in 1323 for the borough of Leakard in Cornwall. A history of the Carpenter families in England and America in found in the book "A Carpenter Memorial", compiled by Amos R. Carpenter, published 1898.
Grandfather's ancestry in similar to this no matter what line he goes back on. His grandfather Ryer Schermerhorn was born in the state of Now York in 1652. This Holland Dutch line goes back to a Princess by the name of Anoka Jans, daughter of William II of Holland, who helped colonize New Amsterdam, the present Now York City.
My Grandfather, William Hiram Carpenter met the Prophet Joseph Smith and Brigham Young in the state of New York, and became interested in the Mormon Church. He joined the Church and was baptized by Anson Sheffield of Glenville, New York.
His father turned against him and was bitter because he had joined. His mother, sister Enter and other brothers refused to join and tried to persuade him to change his mind. So he left his native home in Glenville, Schenectady County, New York to go to Nauvoo, Illinois to join the Saints. He took with him one horse, a saddle, his saddle bags and the personal belongings that would fit in his saddle bags. It was in the dead of winter, very cold, with heavy snow. He traveled for some time and then met another convert to the Church who had a horse and buggy. So the two of thorn "pooled" their resources and traveled together taking turns using their horse on the buggy. They arrived in Nauvoo in early February 1846, just a few days before the Saints were ready to leave for the Great Basin. My Grandfather decided to go with the first group of pioneers, The Brigham Young Company to cross the Great Plains. He used what money he had to obtain an outfit. He acquired a cow, an oxen, a covered wagon, and the other necessities to cross the plains.
The Saints left Nauvoo in February of 1846. At Sugar Creek the body of the Saints made camp and President Young hold a council. It was here that they effected a temporary organization. There were 400 wagons, all heavily loaded with less than half enough team necessary to make the journey. They organized the Camp of Israel and they sent a petition to the governor of the state of Iowa for protection while passing through that state. Grandfather said travel was slow but from day to day the caravan wearily crossed snow covered Iowa,

Between the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers the Mormons built temporary settlements. They broke the land and put in crops for those who were to follow.
On Wednesday July 1, 1846, near Council Bluffs, Iowa the call came from the President of The United States for the Brigham Young Company to furnish 500 men to help their country in the war with Mexico. My grandfather said Brigham Young was very patriotic and could see also, that this move would help the Saints. The soldiers would earn needed money in the army and the government assured them protection if they did as the United States President asked them. President Young said, "We are not a state or a territory but we will do our part to help our country."
So Brigham Young called for 500 volunteers from men between 18 to 45 years. My grandfather was among the first to volunteer. He was 26 years old and unmarried.
Before the Mormon volunteers left for Council Bluffs where they were instructed go. President Young told them, "Young men of Zion, we feel great pride in this group of Latter-Day Day Saint men we are sending to help fight for our country. If each one of you will live your religion as you should, I promise you that the Lord will protect you and that this group will never have to go into active combat."
The Mormon Battalion was formed at Council Bluffs. My Grandfather was in company "C" with James Brown his captain. The Mormon Battalion was to march from Council Bluffs, Iowa, by way of Santa Fe New Mexico to Upper California under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Allen by order of President of the United States.
President Young told them before they left, "Let the Mormons be the first men to met their feet on the soil of California."
The Mormon Battalion were entitled to all comforts and benefits of regular soldiers of the army and when they were to be discharged, after marching to California, they were to go on to Fort Leavenworth to be mustered out.
In the winter of 1966, as I was traveling on U. S. Highway 80, between Buckeye and Gila Bend, I saw a D.U.P. (Daughters of Utah Pioneers) marker which read, "The Mormon Battalion traveled along this trail in 1847."
It was a long trek to California for members of the Mormon Battalion. Grandfather suffered many hardships when he was in the Battalion, but he went on to California as planned.
On one occasion the Mormon Battalion was being brought into active combat. My grandfather said that the enemy looked and saw them coming and to them it looked like a great force of men coming. So the enemy retreated and the Battalion never had to go on the battle field as Brigham Young had promised them.
He went to Sutters Mill where he worked to got money to come back to Salt Lake. On the way back grandfather became sick as did several other men. Captain Jams Brown and the men, who were unable to travel, wintered at Pueblo Mexico. The next spring they came on and arrived in Salt Lake City July 29, 1847 with the James Brown Company, five days after the Brigham Young Company got there.

After staying in Salt Lake City for & while he went back to his old home in Glenville, New York to see his mother and sister. He asked them to join the Church but they refused. While on this trip he married Cynthia Triphosa Weatherbee November 28, 1849 at Centerville. New York. She was the daughter of Wm Weatherbee and Laura Doubleday of Gallands Grove, Pottawattamie County, Iowa, pioneers 1852.
Grandfather and his wife went to Iowa after their marriage, He had taken a liking to this country when they were traveling through with the Saints, They had one son Joseph Weatherbee, born March 17, 1852, at Gallands Grove, Iowa. He soon acquired a prosperous farm and had quite a few cattle. Then a call came from President Young for him to go back to Utah, So grandfather, his wife Cynthia, and young left their farm in Iowa, took what cattle they could and returned to Utah in 1852, His wife died November 30, 1854.
He then married my grandmother Mormora Sheffield, February 13, 1855 at Salt Lake City. She was born August 8, 1838, and was the daughter of Anson Sheffield and Maria Howe Mott.
They moved to Provo, Utah where three children were born. My father William Sheffield Carpenter, May 13, 1856, and two daughters, Maria, born 23 April 1858, died 7 November 1860. Elizabeth born 1 August 1859, died 19 September 1861.
They moved to Payson, Utah where one daughter was born 26 August 1862, died 20 December 1862.
Brigham Young called for volunteers to go to Southern Utah. My grandfather loved Brigham Young very dearly and held him in high esteem and great respect. So he thought it was his duty to answer the call even though it meant leaving all his wife's relatives the Sheffields, the Motts, the Daniels, and all their old friends, the rich productive farmland in the Provo and Payson area for a barren, dry, mountainous, and unknown country of southern Utah.
From my fathers life history he wrote and I quote, "I was born in the town of Provo, Utah. When I was six years old father decided to go to the cotton country in Dixie and sold out in Provo in the spring of 1862, and went to Payson and stayed through the summer of 1863, He worked with Thomas Daniels raising broom corn and making brooms. In the fall of that year, we went to Dixie and settled in Rockville, a place about 40 miles up the Virgin River from St George." Unquote.
Rockville is at the entrance of Zion's National Park. It is very scenic with its big rock formations and bright colors. I heard my father say he remembers when they lived there and how tired he became of looking at the high canyon walls even though they did have such brilliant colors.
There were several pioneers who colonized there. One man was from France, and had brought mulberry trees, which they planted. They thrived very well and silkworms were imported to eat the mulberry leaves. Soon the pioneers made their own silk. This industry flourished for some time. During this time a son, Hiram S. was born on 22 May 1864, and died 23 July 1865, and is buried in the old graveyard there.
Again I quote from my fathers, Wm Sheffield Carpentaria, life history:

LIFE HISTORY OF WILLIAM HIRAM CARPENTER
CONTINUED PAGE 4
"We stayed at Rockville about three years and then father wanted to get in a place that would be more suitable for the broom corn business, so he sold out in Rockville and got a place in St George. In the spring of 1866, we moved to St George. We lived there and made brooms and that was where my boyhood days were spent. About the year 1871, they decided to build a Temple. I remember when Brigham Young came there and dedicated the ground for the Temple. He chose a place for the south east corner and dedicated the ground and broke it and most of the man there throw out a shovel full or two. He asked those that had team to come out and start excavating that afternoon. My father and I did not go that day, but we went the next day and we used to go one day out of ten to help get the ground ready and do what was to be done. My father and I were very interested in helping with the Temple. There was a lot of men from the north came and helped get out the rock and get it on the ground. It was about the year 1876 when it was completed. My father and I were at the dedication. They held Conference for two or three days after the dedication. They started work soon after, baptizing, giving endowments and I had the privilege of going through for myself and helping father do some work for some of his dead."
'"We lived In St George until I was thirty years old, where I worked with my dad raising broom corn and making brooms. We lived in a lovely home my father built." Unquote.
While my grandfather and grandmother resided In St George seven more children were added to their family, but only two lived to maturity.
These last seven children were: Marmora Carpenter born 22 August 1866, married Nephi Fawcett 12 March 1887, died 8 September 1946; David James Carpenter, born 30 April 1869, died 26 January 1871, Vicene Maria Carpenter born 3 November 1870, died 6 June 1873: Anson John Carpenter born 16 March 1873, died 15 March 1873: Hosea S. Carpenter born 14 September 1874, died 15 September 1874: Brigham Carpenter born 8 February 1876, married Effie Burdette Stringham died 8 April 1965: Dica Rae Carpenter born 20 May 1879, died 20 February 1880.
Due to the deaths of so many of their children in early infancy my grandfather and grandmother adopted a little Indian baby. Their grief was so great over the loss of them nine babies that they wanted someone else to love. So my grandfather traded a horse for this Indian child. He got her from an uncle. She was a full blooded Piute Indian. They named her Rhoda. She was sealed to her adopted parents 25 September 1912, in the St George Temple. She is still alive and lives at Gooding, Idaho. She married two times to white men. She is the mother of two lovely daughters.
From my father, his life history, I quote: "About 1881 we sold out in St George and went to Bloomington down on the Virgin River.' unquote. About this time my father married Mary Elizabeth Hodges from Washington, Utah. All the Carpenters and their in laws went to colonize Bloomington, a tract of ground about five miles from St. George.
The settlers had very, few dishes and no money to buy more, Grandfather made a lathe and made beautiful bowls out of cottonwood for or all the settlers.

He helped build the first canal in Bloomington. He built the first broom factory to make brooms,
There endeavors in Bloomington is briefly told in this article from the Salt Lake Tribune, Sunday, February 23, 1964. It states in part:
Writing to Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints official, B. P. Wulffenstein said: "We only farm a little platiron plated, and we have to run the water up hill to all of them."
Old timers in St. George, Bloomington is five miles southwest, including Brigham Carpenter 87, youngest son of William Hiram Carpenter, one finds the pioneers got water to defy gravity through a system of small locks (impoundment and overflow).
This was one of the reasons they had so much ditch trouble and why storms invariably damaged the irrigation system.
Bloomington was founded by Harrison Pearce, his son, John D. H. Cannon and William Carpenter. To lead water to a hummock of land, they dug a small wandering ditch.
That first year crop, whatever it was, was so disappointing that the Pearces and Mr. Cannon both sold out to Mr, Carpenter.
But seven years later though, the tract was yielding stackfulls of broom corn.
The following year was a boom year for Bloomington. A lead in canal was dug from the Virgin River and the St. James Company was formed to manufacture brooms. The company dissolved three or four years later, but
members of the Carpenter family were still making brooms as late an 1954." Unquote. Unquote
Written by: Carl E. Hayden - Tribune Staff Writer
Grandfather also raised sugar cane, cotton, peaches, grapes, pomegranates, nuts and many other things at Bloomington.
Grandfather made another trip back to his native home in New York to get his mother and sister Ester to come out West. They came with him but still did not join the church and later returned to New York.
Grandfather believed in keeping all the laws of the Gospel and when the church urged him to take a plural wife he married Marie Aeschlimann and adopted her son Alfred. They had one daughter Mary Agnes.
The gospel was put first in Grandfathers life. He did a lot of work for his people in the Temple. He was very strong minded and had so much integrity. He sacrificed much for his religion. He was a High Priest. He was a broom maker and farmer and died May 9. 1894 at St. George, Utah and he is buried in the cemetery there.

From Ray Carpenter, St. George, UT, via is son-in-law Jim Hoskins in June of 2010.
From an old letter written by Joseph Weatherbee Carpenter ....
My Father William H. Carpenter was the son of Hiram Carpenter and Elizabeth Schermerhorn Carpenter
Was born in Glenville, Schennectady, New York 22 July 1820. He joined the Mormon Battalion in 1846, July 16 Company "C" but did not go around by California as he had taken sick and sent back with the other sick to Pueblo to winter. He afterward came to Utah then went back to see if he could persuade his mother and sister to come to Utah with him. But after they had traveled from New York to Illinois. His mother felt as though she could not stand the journey to Utah so remained in Chicago Illinois where they both lived until their deaths. He married Cynthia Triphosa Weatherbee in Centerville, New York Nov 28 1849. Then he moved into Gallands Grove, Pottawattamie County Iowa. Where his oldest son Joseph Weatherbee Carpenter was born on the 17th of March 1852. While living here the Indians became troublesome and he and his wife were reported as killed by the Indians but was a false report as they had gone to a near by settlement and were safe. He sold his property at a great sacrifice and came to Utah when their son Joseph was but three months old and near as I know settled at Nephi but stopped at Springville Utah, Before going to Nephi. Here a daughter was born to them Cynthia.
As a result of the mob attacks on Nauvoo and the murder of Joseph Smith in Carthage, Illinois, the Mormons asked Amos Kendall, ex-Postmaster General of the United States, to discuss their plight with President Polk. They had hoped that the President would hire them to build forts along the Organ Trail. Instead, President Polk decided to have the Mormons push through to California, take possession of the country in the name of the United States, and to hold it until relieved. On July 1, 1846, Captain James Allen, First Reg. Dragoons, met with Brigham Young at Council Bluffs, Iowa, to provide details of the proposed capture of California. The Mormons were to raise a Battalion of 500 men who were to then march over 2,000 miles to Southern California, building a trail across the southern desert as they went. This meant that those who enlisted would have to leave their families in the care of church leaders. On July 16, 1846, four companies and a part of a fifth were mustered into the service of the United States Army at Council Bluffs, Iowa. William H. Carpenter enlisted as a private in Company "C". By the 20th of July, all five Companies were ready and the Battalion began their march to Fort Leavenworth, 200 miles away, where they were to draw their equipment and supplies. On the morning of the 23rd, the first death of what would become many was reported. By the evening of the 25th, the Battalion had already run out of what little flour they had started with so many retired to bed fasting. The Battalion arrived at Fort Leavenworth on July 1, 1846, where Dr. George B. Sanderson was assigned to serve as unit surgeon. Over the next several days, the men were issued tents, flintlock muskets, $42 for one years clothing, "the usual accoutrements, camp equipage, and provisions." Most of the money was sent back for the support of the families remaining at and near Council Bluffs, Iowa. The weather at Fort Leavenworth was quite warm during the daytime. Temperatures of 101 degrees in the shade were not unusual. Some of those that had fallen ill on the trail had improved but a number of new cases of "ague and fever" had developed. On July 12th, the first companies left for Santa Fe taking their sick with them. On the 23rd, Colonel Allen, who had been too sick to travel with his command, died of congestive fever at Fort Leavenworth. Lieutenant A. J. Smith was sent to take command of the Battalion. By early September, a number of Battalion had taken sick with chills and fever, "and were administered to by Dr. Sanderson out of an old iron spoon." After that, it was routine to have the sick march to the Doctor’s quarters so that they could be treated using the same iron spoon. Dr. Sanderson treated the men using calomel and arsenic. The only other medicine he had procured was a mixture of bayberry bark and chamomile flowers that he gave to those that were "convalescing". The sick were required to take the medicine or it was forced down their throats. To add to their hardships, the men were reduced to two-thirds rations by the fourth week in September. Colonel Smith informed the men that, if they did not reach Santa Fe by October 10th, they would be discharged. At this point, the decision was made to have those that were still healthy travel on a double forced march, leaving the sick to follow on their own. Colonel Smith, most of his officers, Dr. Sanderson, and all able bodied men immediately set out for Santa Fe. None of the sick complained about Dr. Sanderson’s decision to leave with Colonel Smith. The first division of the Battalion arrived in Santa Fe on the evening of October 9th. On October 13th, Lt. Col. St. George Cook took command of the Battalion. On October 15th, Captain James Brown took command of the men reported by the assistant Surgeon as "incapable, from sickness and debility, of undertaking the present march to California." They were to be taken to Pueblo to winter there. The detachment totaled 94 including three Sergeants, two Corporals, and sixteen privates of Company "C". William H. Carpenter was one of those assigned to Captain Brown’s command. Brown’s detachment departed Santa Fe on October 18th. Their wagon teams were so worn out that "the sick were obliged to walk when ascending steep hills and where the roads were unusually bad, which was a great hardship to them." They arrived in Pueblo on November 17th. Those who were well enough to work immediately began erecting their winter quarters, spurred on by the loss of some of the sick that could not withstand the piercing winds and cold mountain storms. On the 10th of November, an additional fifty-five sick men left the Battalion west of Santa Fe with directions to go to Pueblo for the winter, arriving there on the 24th of December. Around the middle of January, rumors of pending attacks by Mexicans and Indians were circulating so Captain Brown had the command make preparations for the defense of their winter camp. The rumors could not be confirmed since all communication with Santa Fe had been cut off for several weeks. Captain Brown began squad drills at which the men who were in good health became quite proficient. Unfortunately, numerous deaths continued to occur among those who wintered in Pueblo "doubtless due, mainly, to diseases contracted through the exposure and hardships of the journey and the murderous drugging which they had received from Dr. Sanderson, though the unhealthful ness of Pueblo may partly account for them, as some claim." On May 18, 1847, Captain Brown returned from Santa Fe with orders to march to California. Wagons were loaded and the command departed Pueblo on the 24th. The march to California was to be by way of Fort Laramie, on the Platte River. Fort Laramie was reached on the 16th of June and the command was informed that Brigham Young had passed that way with a band of pioneers twelve days previously. While fully expecting to have to travel to California before they would be discharged, the command saw no reason why they could not catch up with their families and friends to travel together for part of the trip. The command failed to catch up with the pioneers and arrived at the Salt Lake Valley on July 27, 1847, three days after Brigham Young. Here they were formally disbanded without having to continue on to California. The rest of the members of the Battalion arrived at the Salt Lake Valley from California on the 16th of October. Although many would say that the efforts of the Mormon Battalion were a failure, the members brought something to the Great Salt Lake that proved to be invaluable during the first years in the valley. Those that wintered in Pueblo brought Taos wheat, now common throughout Utah. Some of the company returning from California brought the California pea that proved to grow prolifically in Utah soils. Others brought various kinds of garden and fruit seeds that also helped feed them. Source: A Concise History of the Mormon Battalion in the Mexican War, by Sgt. Daniel Tyler
