@Julia "Perhaps this was an overstatement and, if true, the writer should have said the Mormon ferry-tenders were stationed along the Mormon Trail? I'm curious about movements across the country, so this tid-bit interested me." Hi Julia! maybe you'll find something here: http://tiny.cc/13bNP greetings Michael

Dear Julia, In the pioneer histories I have read, it often mentions the Mormon ferry operators. I think that probably isn't an exaggeration. Certainly the men who were stationed at those ferry outposts faced a lot of dangers, but that seems to have been common to the pioneer experience in general. Usually several men were assigned to operate those ferries, and they traded off after a certain time. The ferries seem to have been fairly profitable, and the money earned helped supply the Saints with needed items. If you enter the search terms "Mormon ferries" in google.com, you will find some interesting articles, including some in 19th Centuryhistories scanned in by Google Books.

It stated that most ferries west of the Mississippi were operated by Mormons for the benefit of other migrating Mormons. Of course, many non-Mormons used the ferries, too. Is this true? If so. it seems like an early stab at creating an infrastructure, but at the same time must have left many Mormon ferry-tenders alone and isolated, vulnerable to the same aggression shown to the members of the faith back in Nauvoo or to non-discriminatory cut-purses or to the anger of displaced Natives. Perhaps this was an overstatement and, if true, the writer should have said the Mormon ferry-tenders were stationed along the Mormon Trail? I'm curious about movements across the country, so this tid-bit interested me.

Hello List: Searching for information about the BEST and BAUER families. The BEST family were window-glass factory workers and carried on their trade in the U.S. until the early 1900s. Three BEST men married three BAUER women that we know about. All were Catholic and arrived in the U.S. about 1850 from Germany/Bavaria.. Can anyone help me fill in the details on their homeland and occupations? Also, I can find little information about the BEST surname in Germany; any help here? Thank you, Lou Best Durhamville, NY

I completed the survey. The survey web site did not try to set a cookie on my computer, so I think it is very safe.
