I found the following account on Ancestry that looks like it must be information recorded by the Mormons. I have no idea who this Mrs Dover might have been or her children. Description: The Mormons have left an indelible tradition wherever they have lived; whether stopping to improve their financial condition, accumulate necessary supplies and gear or to concentrate their energies toward their ultimate goal: Zion! An understanding of the history of this great people is predicated upon the knowledge of all conditions and persons having significant effect upon Mormon lives and activities either directly or indirectly. An Enduring Legacy brings to the reader accounts of important events, such as the death of Brigham Young; intimate untold stories of choice relics housed in the Pioneer Memorial Museum; heartwarming events related by pioneers; the accomplishments and life sketches of Daughters of Utah Pioneers presidents; the history of the Indians of the Great Basin and adjacent areas; a famous California pioneer cemetery and the stories of the people buried therein. Lastly the experiences of early pioneers are told through their poetry. Source Information: Ancestry.com. An Enduring Legacy [database online]. Orem, UT: MyFamily.com, Inc., 1998.

HOOKED BY A COW. Mrs. Dover, of the Twenty-first Ward, is still suffering quite severely from injuries received last Monday through being hooked by a cow. The animal has heretofore been considered very gentle, but on last Monday, while Mrs. Dover was standing in the yard with her infant in her arms, the cow was liberated from the stable and ran out to look for the calf, which was a few days old. Not seeing it, the animal apparently became enraged and ran at Mrs. Dover who endeavored to get out of the way, but could not do so. She was knocked down, but she managed to throw her child behind some currant bushes and out of harm's way.

A young man nearby tried to get the animal off but could not until another man came to help him. Mrs. Dover was badly bruised, but she is now slowly recovering. Fortunately, the ends of the cow's horns had been sawed off or the injuries would have been even more severe.

He received a slight bruise on one leg. *********************************** I found these census records on the same page in Utah in the 21st Ward of Salt Lake City. These are indexed as DOVEN (except wife Sarah Dover) but I believe that they are actually DOVER. The 2nd Joseph Dover may actually be 37 yrs instead of 57. 1880 U.S. Federal Census > Utah Territory > Salt Lake > Salt Lake City > District 49 Ancestry IM 16 Census Place 21st Ward, Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah Family History Library Film 1255337 NA Film Number T9-1337 Page Number 151D Joseph DOVEN Self M Male W 55 ENG Stone Mason ENG ENG Sarah DOVER Wife M Female W 57 ENG Keeping House ENG ENG (four households down) Joseph DOVEN Self M Male W 57 ENG Stone Cutter ENG ENG Mary B.
