Winterton Prayer
PRAYER FOR THE AUTHOR AND OTHER WINTERTONS WHO GROW OLDER DAY BY DAY Lord, thou knowest better
than I know myself that I am growing older and will some day be old. Keep me from the fatal habit of thinking I must say something on every
subject- and on every occasion. Release
me from craving to try to straighten out every Winterton’s affairs. Lord, make me thoughtful
but not moody; helpful but not bossy. With my vast store of wisdom, it seems a
pity not to use it all--but thou knowest,
Lord, that I want a few friends at the end. Lord, keep my mind free
from the recital of endless details.. . Give me wings to get to the point. Seal
my lips on my aches and pains. They are increasing and love of rehearsing them
is becoming sweeter as the years go by...
I dare not ask for grace enough to enjoy the tales of other Winterton
pains but help me to endure them with patience. Lord, I dare not ask for
improved memory, but allow me a growing humility and a lessening cocksureness
when my memory seems to clash with the memories of other Wintertons. Teach me
the glorious lesson that occasionally I may be mistaken. Lord, keep me reasonably
sweet; I do not want to be a saint--some of them are so hard to live with- -but
a sour old per son is one of the crowning works of the devil. Give me the
ability to see good things in unexpected places and talents in ordinary people.
Give me the grace to tell them so. Amen The Winterton Family Reunion
The Winterton Family
Reunion is a regularly scheduled annual event at the Charleston, Wasatch County,
Utah Memorial Park. On the first Saturday of August each year the descendants of Utah’s Pioneer
William Hubbard Winterton bring their picnic lunches at noon and renew acquaintances
as they break bread. This picturesque location
on the northern shores of the Deer Creek (Reservoir) Lake with its superb view
of the eastern slopes of majestic Mount Timpanogos is the scene, several hours later,
of a vocal and instrumental family talent program. Before each group separates
to return home, anecdotes and reminiscences
of the lives of progenitors are exchanged and the names of brand new cousins
are added to family records. It was my privilege to
attend the Winterton Family Reunion on Saturday, 3 August 1963, which noted the 100th anniversary of the
emigration of William Hubbard Winterton 1816-1890 and his two sons John
Marriott Winterton 1844-1910 and William Winterton 1846-1929 from Nottingham, England
to Great Salt Lake City, Utah. They were
reported to have been tramping in the dust of a covered wagon train in
company with several hundred other Saints facing westward beside the banks of
the Platte River somewhere in Nebraska at exactly this same hour, day, week and
month in 1863--100 years ago. Honored as the Senior
Winterton citizen in attendance was Hyrum Shurtliff Winterton born 16 August
1878 at Charleston, Utah son of William and Ellen Widdison Winterton. The only other
grandchild of William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott Winterton present .at this
reunion was Carrie Winterton Davis born 5 May 1893 daughter of William and Jane
Steadman Winterton. A score or more of William’s grandchildren; Mrs. Bessie (Gill)
Wahlen, Ann’s granddaughter; Mrs. Viola (Coleman) Coleman, John’s granddaughter;
and William Hubbard Winterton’ s great grandchildren were also present as were
numerous fifth and sixth generation Winterton descendants from many parts of
the state. The committee responsible
for making arrangements for the 1964 Winterton Family - Reunion is headed by Mr.
Sherron J. Winterton, son
of Valeo James Winterton, grandson of William Winterton and great grandson of
Pioneer William Hubbard Winterton. A capacity attendance will be
welcomed. Winterton Family Reunion 2005

4000 B.C to 1963 A.D.
“In the beginning God
created the heaven and the earth. And God created man in His own image, … male
and female he created them.”
Genesis I: 1 and 27
The foregoing Bible verses
are the record of the earliest of our Winterton ancestors. Adam and Eve, according to most Bible
students, were given life about 5963 years ago--or about 4000 B.C. If we assume
that a new generation of life is created on the average of every twenty-five
years we are the 240th generation of descendants from our original
ancestors or if as some folks claim the average time for a new generation is
more nearly twenty-three years we may be the 260th generation from
Adam and Eve.
The Bible writer Mathew, a
Jew, at his first chapter first seventeen verses gives us a very interesting
genealogy of our Savior’s ancestry back through King David and on to Abraham to
prove Jesus was the promised Messiah. His contemporary writer Luke, a Greek
Gentile, traced our Savior’s ancestry back to Adam in an apparent effort to
present him as a Universal Savior for all races of mankind. (Chapter 3:23-38)
Frankly, I have no axes
(good or bad) to grind in preparing this genealogical account of a small
segment of our ancestral line, I believe there is a lot of good in all of
us--there is good and bad in the best of us and there is good and bad in the
worst of us. The information on our Winterton relatives is presented as it was
given to us without embellishment or criticism,
In the following paragraphs
an attempt will be made to follow our ancestors and their activities down to
our present generation and the year 1963 A.D. This writing is a sort of
centennial memorial of the arrival of our Winterton ancestors in Utah in 1863.
Our Winterton ancestral line of progenitors is far from complete for there are several
thousands of years in which we do not know our ancestral progenitors names.
What an interesting area this would be for further genealogical research.
Perhaps some Winterton descendant will yet succeed in the task.
Adam and Eve were created,
married and they became the parents of Cain, Abel, Enoch, Seth, and other sons
and daughters. Genesis 5:5 … Adam lived
930 years and died (about 3096 B.C.) Enoch transferred about 3039 B.C. Noah was
born about 2969 B.C. a son of Lamech, a grandson
of Methuselah, a great grandson of Enoch, and a second great grandson of Adam. Lamech dies at age 777, and Methuselah dies at age 969 prior to the Flood which
some Bible scholars date during the year
2369 B.C.
Genesis 5:32 “Noah was 500
years old and then he got three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.” These three sons were probably born between
90 and 100 years before the Flood. During this 100 year period before the
Flood, Noah preached God’s righteousness and built an Ark of Gopher Wood. The only people on the earth at that time
who were not corrupt and therefore not destroyed were Noah, Japheth, Shem, Ham
and their wives. (Genesis 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th chapters)
Our Winterton ancestor Noah
lived after the Flood according to the Genesis account chapter 9 verse 28 and 29 for 350 years for a
total life span of 950 years. He died
about 2020 B.C.
The Winterton ancestry would appear to have descended through Noah’s
youngest son Japheth and his wife. The
10th chapter of Genesis verses 2 thru 5 adds two more generations.
“The sons of Japheth; Gomer,
and Magog, and Madai, and Javan, and Tubal, and Meschech, and Tiras. And the sons of Gomer; Ashkenaz,
and Riphath, and Togarmah. And the sons of Javan; Elishah, and Tarshish,
Kittim, and Dodanim. By these were the
isles of the Gentiles divided in their lands; every one after his tongue, after
their families, in their nations.”
The grandsons of Noah by
his son Japheth, in each succeeding generation, moved north and west from the
Euphrates Valley, from the land of Shinar, and away from the ruins of the Tower
of Babel. Among these families and
tribes were the remote origins of the Winterton family. Shem and Ham’s children populated Africa,
Arabia, Persia, India, Asiatic, and southern lands.
Gorner who was the father
of the Galatians (and possibly as some claim the Teutons) and Magog the father
of the Scythians first settled on the western shores of the Caspian Sea in what
is now called Southern Russia. Javan
occupied the area we know as Greece and the Balkan Peninsula. Tubal the lands South of the Black Sea or
much of what is called Asia Minor in recent Geography books. Meschech and his children squeezed in between
Tubal and Magog along the eastern and northern shores of the Black Sea. Kittim (Chittin) and Dodanim took to the
water and enjoyed the islands in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea. Tarshish went even farther west to Southern
Spain on our maps. The thirty-eighth
chapter of Ezekial sixth verse refers to Togarmah and all his bands as being in
the uttermost parts of the north. Actually
it seems they were east of the Caspian Sea and scattered in an area extending
to Mongolia and north to Siberia an area called Turkestan by recent
geographers.
The Winston Dictionary on
my library shelf to which I referred for information on the word Japhethic said it was used to designate
members of the Caucasian races of Europe to distinguish them from the Semitic
and Hamitic races of people in other parts of the world.
It is quite probable that
Japheth’s sons or grandsons reached the British Isles well before the year 2000
B.C. as they scattered abroad on the face of the earth. The ancient wanderers were not only our
ancestors but also the progenitors of the so-called aborigines found by the Keltic
(or Celtic) invaders of the 5th Century B.C.
The Kelts, whose origin was the Central European region between the
headwaters of the Rhine and Danube, are said to have brought a higher level of civilization
and culture to the islands than was known before that time. It seems likely to me that both groups had
common Japhethic ancestors some 1700-1800
years before the Keltic invasion.
It is claimed that Japheth
had a knowledge of the
British Isles which he transmitted to his posterity after the Flood with such
glowing accounts of its desirability as a place to live that they were all
trying to reach it--some going via the Mediterranean route, some via Europe and the Danube-Rhine
valleys and others north into what is now Russia and then west through the
North Sea and Scandinavian countries.
Legends or traditions claim
that Adam was the father of 33 sons
and 23 daughters, that Ireland’s
fairy stories have their origin in Enoch’s transferance; that one system or
time used in reckoning chronological events such as Adam’s birth, the flood,
etc. has these events actually take place 300 years later than the dates I have
used; these legendary sources also assert that
the British Isles were
occupied before the Big Deluge by Adam’s sons and several generations of his
grandsons who were in communication with their cousins and other relatives in
the Fertile Crescent and Euphrates Valley Areas. A few more reliable dates will
cover the intervening generations.

664 A.D. Council
of Whitby established Roman Catholic version of Christianity in England which
later suffered some spiritual lapse during the Danish invasions of the eighth
and ninth centuries and many church buildings were destroyed.
The first written or
documentary evidence of our family name or one of reasonably close resemblance
that has come to my notice was made by the Anglo Saxon warrior-chief Hereward
whose exploits are dated in the sixth century. He lauds one “Winter” as his
most faithful and loyal bodyguard but we do not learn what the fates had in store
for his comrade at arms.
Perhaps you have been as
curious to learn the meaning or origination of the name Winterton as I was when
this family research project commenced. Etymologists tell us that all names are originally significant and
that many of the English surnames in particular come from their occupation or
home community or some combination of these and other factors.
An unknown writer in discus
sing family names has said, “No name is to be disliked, the evil does not
disgrace the good, neither does the good restore the evil to fair repute!” Another writer of some years ago--”Camden”—philosophized
“To finde out the true originall of surnames is fulle of difficultie.” The most cogent thought though is that
somewhat sarcastic exclamation:
“…His parents are the
Lord knows who!”
It is impossible--for me at
least--to put the name “Winterton” in a straitjacket and come up with a one
origin or meaning of our sobriquet. Neither
can I determine for certain exactly when or where the name Winterton was first
used by our progenitors as a hereditary surname.
The English records such as
Domesday Book, 100 rolls, etc. extant from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries
contain such names as John le Vinetur, Ralph le Vinetuner, William le Wyneter, and
show a Norman influence as well as an occupational adaptation. These men and others undoubtedly took the
name of their trade --that of wine merchant, grape grower, or perhaps the more specialized and closely
related early industrial activity that of putting the spiritous beverages and
liquors in containers called TUNS. A man from the community where
this work was performed being called, let us say, “William from the Wine
Tunners (or Vintners) Town,” which was soon shortened to suit the Anglo Saxon
taste “William Winterton.”
Perhaps William le Wyneter
mentioned above was an important and well-known man in his and surrounding
areas and John left that town to
go to another area, what would be more natural than to refer to him as John
from Wyneter’s Town and before long he would be signing his name John Wyntertowne
and later it would be as we see it today Winterton.
Here is an interesting
couplet, naming trades that give rise to surnames, from an early Medieval English
poem entitled “Cocke Lorrelles Boteu”:
… Woolenen, Vynterers
and Fleshmongers,
Salteras, Jewelers and
Haberdashers.
Some etymologists suggest
the names Winter, Finter or Vinter have a Cornish origin and are from that ancient
tongues words for “white water” GWYN
DOUR. The addition of town, hall,
bottom, field, etc. to the base word not changing its meaning, i.e. Winterton
means town near White Water or Winterbottom means White Water in the lowest
portion of a steep valley, field near the
White Water, etc.
Certain dictionaries define
winter in addition to a season of the year as meaning cold, unattractive, unpleasant,
disagreeable. Some claim that as
pressure was applied to our progenitors to furnish two names a surname as well
as a Christian name it often happened that when William was born in the winter
he would sign his name in after years, if he learned to write that is, as
William Winter to distinguish himself from that other William living nearby who
caught herring for a living- -and he in self protection learned to sign his
name as William Herring. The “ton” being added as someone else came to identify
themself as being from Winter’s town or from the Herring town.
Many other family names
have been formed in addition to our own Winterton name by the adding of another
word or syllable to the “‘Winter” root. Recently I examined a number of telephone directories for widely
scattered American cities on file in the Salt Lake City Telephone Office Building
lobby.
From just this one source
the following “Winter–plus” names were noted and found listed in alphabetical
order. Surely we have progenitors in
common with some of them no more
than forty or fifty generations back along the ancestral lines of ancient
England. You may recall more such names than are listed here.
Winterberg, Winterberger,
Winterbotham, Winterbottam, Winterbottom, Winterburn, Wintercorn, Winterer,
Winterfall, Winterfeld, Wintergalen, Wintergarden, Wintergood, Wintergreen, Winterhalder,
Winterhall, Winterhalter, Winterhoff, Winterholder, Winterhouse, Winterkorn,
Winterling, Winterman, Wintermantel, Wintermute, Wintermyer, Winternitz,
Winterose, Winterowd, Winters, Wintersdorff, Wintersgill, Wintersmith,
Wintersole, Winterson, Wintersport, Winterstein, Winterstellar, Winterstine,
Winterville and Winterwerp.
An Etymological Dictionary
written in 1857 by William Arthur defines our surname as follows:
“Winterton- -from the village of Winterton
in the County of Norfolk, England, so
called from its cold situation.”
The “Topography Dictionary
of England” published in 1840 lists two places called Winterton. One is a
parish in the Wapentake of Manley, County of Lincoln 8½ miles from Barton-upon-Humber containing at that time 1840 some
1295 inhabitants. It is about 55 miles
North of Nottingham and 70 miles from where our early Winterton progenitors lived
in Derbyshire. They could easily have walked
the distance in several days time.
The other Winterton is a parish
in the hundreds of West Flegg Eastern Division
of the County of Norfolk 5½
miles N by W from Caistor containing 631 inhabitants (in 1840). On a promontory called Winterton Ness are two
lighthouses (about 5 miles north on the Coastline from New Yarmouth on our 1960
maps). This is about 90 miles south west of Breadsall and Little Chester in
Derbyshire where we find early Winterton ancestors.
This is a reply to a letter
of inquiry I sent asking for information about the Winterton name.
Great Yarmouth Public
Libraries and Museums
Central Library
Dear Mr. Coleman, 11th
October, 1963.
Thank you for your enquiry
of 23rd September. Winterton is an ancient fishing village, lying in
a bay, 8 miles north of “Winterton Ness”, a dangerous headland once dreaded by
sailors as much as any part of the Coast between the Humber and the Thames. It has 912 inhabitants and contains 1,367 acres
of land, exclusive of a large extent of seabeach and warren. This Coastal
parish has almost four miles of sandy beach backed by dunes - now
an ideal site for holidaymakers.
The name “Winterton,”
derives from the Old English “tun” meaning an enclosure, a farmstead, an estate
or a village. There are many towns and villages
in England with this suffix, e.g. -Hampton, Plumpton, Allerton, etc. (there are
230 in the County of Devon alone). In
the case of Winterton, it would almost certainly denote the seasonal uses of
the farms (i.e. used in Winter). The soil is light in this area,
but very fertile, the chief crops today being wheat, oats and barley.
Winterton was originally a
township. It is mentioned in the
Domesday Book, and it can be presumed that it was once a place of much consequence as it formerly had a
market and a fair and races (now discontinued). The people of Winterton have
always been a hardy group, but due to their associations with the sea, a very
superstitious one as well.
The Church, dedicated to
the Holy Trinity and All Saints, was built about 1400. It consists of a nave, South porch, Chancel
and fine embattled tower. The latter is
120 feet high and is surmounted by four carved figures in lieu of pinnacles. It
contains five bells and its summit commands an extensive view of the ocean. New windows were inserted in the Chancel in
1859. The roof of the Nave is supported
by 18 wooden pillars, 9 on either side and the pulpit stands under the centre of
the Chancel arch. Here, is a brass to
Thomas Husband, dated 1676, and several tablets of the Knights, Lens,
Huntington and Hume families. The Rectory House was built in 1822.
Daniel Defoe, who visited
this part of the coast about 1722, wrote
of it, that the farmers and
other country people “had scarce a barn, or a shed, or a stable, nay, not the
pales of their yards and gardens….but what was built of old planks, beams,
wales and timbers –etc., the wrecks of ships and ruins of Mariners and Merchants’
fortunes.” He goes on to give a vivid picture
of a shocking disaster on this part of the coast one night about 1692, in which
were involved 200 light colliers from Yarmouth, a fleet of ships from the North
and vessels from Lynn and Wells, laden with Corn for Holland. In a sudden storm over 200 ships and a
thousand lives were lost.
On the 1st September,
1756, the Winterton folk saw the finish of a sharp sea-fight between H.M.S. Hazard
and the French privateer La Subtille, carrying twelve guns and eighty-six men. The engagement began off Lowestoft and was
continued for six hours. The prisoners
were landed at Yarmouth and lodged in the gaol; but by undermining a wall
fourteen of them escaped and only four were retaken.
An inscription in the
Church links Winterton with the nineteenth century political philosopher Joseph
Hume, who lived at the Hall. In his
young days he was a surgeon in the East India Company, and by the time he was
30 he was able to come home with all the money he needed. For 30 years he was one of our leading
politicians, and though a bad speaker in Parliament, he was a good leader for
the abolition of abuses and an ardent advocate of freedom of trade with India. Untiring in exposing extravagence, his
watchword was Peace and Reform, and it was largely due to his efforts that flogging
in the Army, the Press Gang, and the old System of imprisonment for debt were
abolished. He started the Savings Bank
movement, and his daughter, Eliza Greenhow, who has a memorial at Winterton, is
remembered for the splendid work she did in helping on National Schools.
The lighthouse built in
1617 stands on a lofty summit on the south east side of the village. It
is a hexagonal tower, nearly 70 ft. high. It is the property of Trinity House, London, and was granted in
1687 to Sir Edward Turnow, with “ld. per ton for every vessel sailing by”. There were formerly two lights on the Ness, more than a mile north of
the village, but they were removed about 1830. In 1859, a life boat was placed here by the National Life Boat
Association, and in 80 years of its history the Lifeboat saved 500 lives.
Winterton has given the
title of Earl to the Turnow family since the year 1766. The present Earl is the 6th Earl Winterton
(Edward Turnow, P.C., T.D.),
Viscount Turnow, and Baron Winterton, of Gort, Co. Galway, in Ireland, and Baron
Turnow of Shillinglee, Co. Sussex in the Peerage of the United Kingdom.

1066 A.D. The
Normans invaded England and defeated the Saxons at the Battle of Hastings. Were any of our Winterton ancestors in that fight?
1100 - 1200 A.D. Were
the years of the Crusades. Did any of
our unknown Winterton ancestors take part in these religious pilgrimages?
1215 A.D. Magna
Carta signed at Runnymede. Were any
Wintertons at this famous gathering?
1295 A.D. English
Parliament established.
1349 A.D. The
Black Death, a mysterious plague, took the lives of over a third of the English
population. How many of our Winterton ancestors
were involved in that horrible tragedy is not known.
1492 A.D. Columbus
sailing for Spain after being refused ships by England, discovers the American
continents.
1611 A.D. The Bible is printed in the English language
and made authorized reading by King James. No doubt many of our Winterton ancestors heard its words read for
the first time early in the seventeenth century.
1620 A.D. The
Puritan emigration to America commenced as a result of religious intolerance on
the part of England’s rulers.
1755 A.D. William Winterton, the
grandfather of William Hubard Winterton 1816-1890 was born this year at
Breadsall, Derbyshire, England. This place is about 30-35 miles distant from
the Nottingham area where our grandparents were born. His wife Ruth Buxton is
thought to have been born at the same place a few years later.
The community of Breadsall
is described in the “Topographical Dictionary of England” published in 1840 by
Samuel Lewis as a parish, in the Union of Shardow, hundred of Appletree, three miles
northeast by North from Derby containing 565 inhabitants at the last census. The Church is a large handsome structure with
a lofty spire. The living is a rectory
valued in the king’s books at slightly over 28 pounds.
A
nonconformist divine of considerable celebrity
was the incumbent in this parish from 1644-1662 (who may have started our
Winterton ancestors to think about religious subjects for themselves). The
Little Eaton Canal and railroad pass through the parish (in 1840 but not in
1755). Here was anciently a house of
friars, hermits afterwards converted into a priority for monks.
William Winterton 1755-17??
married about 1780 Ruth Buxton born about 1760. They were the parents of John Winterton, born 6 April 1781 died 5
April 1825. If there were other
children it has not been determined, neither has the death date of the parents
been found in my research.
Apparently William and Ruth
Buxton Winterton have moved a few miles from their birthplace as the Lewis
Topographical Dictionary of England 1840 edition describes Little Chester, John
Winterton’s birthplace, as a township in the parish of St. Alkmund and the
Union of Derby, but without the limits of the borough, in the hundreds of
Morelton and Litchurch containing (at that time) 191 inhabitants. It is situated on the eastern bank of a stream
about one mile north-northeast of the town Derwent.
The Domesday-book referred
to this place as “Cestre” a parcel of the ancient demesne of the Crown. Numerous remains of Roman antiquity such as
foundations, and coins of gold, silver and copper have been found here.
1796 The
year of the Great bread riot in London, England.
1802 on the
8th of November John Winterton (Born 6 April 1781 died 5 April 1825) married
Ann Hubbard (born 10 July 1782 died 20 January 1857) at Nottingham, England.
Not much is known of these
ancestors other than that they led miserable lives by our present day
standards, John was pressed into the British Army shortly after marriage and
served overseas for ten years 1805-1815.
Whether he was with the British regiments that fought the Americans in
the War of 1812 or whether he served in India or some other part of the world I
do not know. It was only after he was
injured and disabled that he was permitted to return home to his wife and
daughter (Ruth Ann Winterton born 22 Oct 1803 died 19 Jan 1877 was the wife of
William Britton). John’s son-our great
grandfather William Hubbard Winterton--was born 26 June 1816 the year following
his father’s release from the army. If
John and Ann had other children, their names are not known to me nor did I
notice any such indications in my research.
1811 Frequent
riots in England’s manufacturing districts and in 1812 war was declared against
United States.
1816 On
the 26th of June William Hubbard Winterton, our great grandfather and a pioneer
in the settlement of Salt Lake City and Utah, was born at Nottingham, England.
His father John Winterton 1781-1825 had apparently moved about thirty miles
east of his birthplace but his mother Ann Hubbard seems to be a native of
Nottingham City as well as of Nottingham Shire (County).
To obtain a picture of the
community in which our ancestors were born and lived and married I have
consulted the Topographical Dictionary of England published in 1840 by Samuel Lewis,
a copy of which is in the Salt Lake Genealogical Library. Reading this description written at the time
they were residing there gives one a better under standing of their story and
actions.
Nottinghamshire is an inland
county of England being bounded on the north by Yorkshire on the East by
Lincolnshire on the South by Leicestershire, and on the East by Derbyshire containing
about 536,000 acres and in 1840 about
225,000 people (the 1960
census figures are 841,000).
The Anglo-Saxon kingdom of
Mercia flourished here about 1400 years ago. During the Middle Ages there was strong fortifications and much
fighting of civil wars in the area. The
river Trent flows through the county and is bordered by rich grasslands and fertile
soil. Crops cultivated here during the
early part of the nineteenth century include wheat, rye, barley, oats, beans,
peas and grasses. Hops, burnet and woad
are also mentioned. Much of the area
was once covered with forest and deer were plentiful but has since been “disafforested”
and the red deer are entirely “extirpated.”
The City of Nottingham is
124 miles north northwest of London and had in 1840 about 51,000 inhabitants,
the number in 1960 had grown to 306,000 people despite the emigrations of
William Hubbard Winterton and other families to America during the latter half
of the nineteenth century. During the
seventh to tenth centuries the Danes held intermittent possession of
Nottingham. William the Conqueror
considered it an important area and placed his son in charge. Many battles, plots and counterplots as well
as treason occurred in the area as various political forces attempted to establish
their supremacy in England during the 1200-1800 A.D. period.
Following the French and
American revolutions in about 1811 and 1812 and only a couple of years prior to
William Hubbard Winterton’s birth there occurred in Nottingham the organization
of workingmen known as the “Luddites”“
who “ …. ascribed their distress to the introduction of new machinery and as a
consequence were excited to the destruction of considerable property-
-buildings as well as machines. The
next several years have also witnessed several disturbances occasioned by the
framework knitters which have caused the passing of the 57th Act by
King George III …” It would be
interesting to know what the Winterton ancestors and their corrallary family
lines were doing in those troubled times.
The City of Nottingham gets
its name from the numerous caverns and subterraneous dwellings excavated in the
sandy rock on which it is situated.
The Saxons called the place
SNOTTINGHA –HAM or “place of
caverns.” The present name is only a
slight modification from the primitive tongue.
To quote directly from the
Topographical Dictionary “The staple manufactures are silk and cotton
stockings, bobbin-net and lace, which afford employment to nearly 40 000
persons in the town and its environs … For its present (1840) prosperity
Nottingham is greatly indebted to science for the improvement lately made in
the machinery employed in the national industry which has given this town a
decided superiority. The machines for making bobbin-net and lace are exceedingly
expensive and being therefore beyond the purchase of the poor are let out to
them at a weekly rent.”
A
recent 1960 geographer describes
Nottingham as “an important industrial and rail center with lace, hosiery,
textiles, tobacco, brewing, bicycles, drugs, shoes, leather goods, motorcycles,
railroad and electrical equipment, coal and clay products. The University and colleges were founded in
the 9th century. This is the
scene of the legendary Robin Hood and the Sherwood Forest is nearby.”
1818 It
was in December of this year in the Austrian
Alps that a village priest wrote the words to the lovely Christmas carol “Silent
Night, Holy Night.”
1825 Great
commercial panic in England.
1830 March Joseph
Smith Jun. published 3,000 copies of the Book of Mormon in New York State, U.S.A.
1830 April The
Mormon Church is organized at Fayette, New York and moves to Kirtland, Ohio, Independence
and Far West, Missouri and to Nauvoo, Illinois by 1840 as it grows and
increases in membership.
1832 Slavery
ceases in all British colonies.
1838 Queen
Victoria coronated.
1840 L.D.
S. missionaries are sent to the British Isles to preach the Gospel.
1842 On
the 24th of October William Hubbard Winterton 1816-1890 married
Sarah Marriott 1824-1902. They were
parents of eight children born at Nottinghamshire, England.
The birthplace of John and
William Winterton has been listed as Carlton, England on all the family group
sheets and other records that have come to my attention. The William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott
Winterton family undoubtedly made their home there rather than in the City of
Nottingham. Possibly they may have
moved back and forth, but I think that unlikely.
The statement that they
walked three miles to attend the L.D.S. Church services coincides with the
distance between Carlton and Nottingham. For a description of this home community of William Hubbard
Winterton’’s I turned to the 1840--4th edition of “Lewis Topographical
Dictionary of England” page 464 and found that: “Carlton is a hamlet in the
parish of Gelding union of Brasford, Southern division of the Wapentake of
Thurgarton and of the County of Nottingham, 3 miles east northeast from the
City of Nottingham. At that time (1840) it contained 1,704 inhabitants living in an extensive area. Its chief employment and industry is the
making of hosiery and lace.”
1842 This
was the year 26, 000 people were massacred in British India.
1844 On
the 16th of May, John Marriott Winterton was born the first child of William Hubbard
and Sarah Marriott Winterton of Carlton, Nottingham, England at the age of 19
he was destined to emigrate to Utah crossing the Atlantic Ocean on a sailing
vessel and the plains of North America on foot and as an oxtearn driver.
1844 This
year saw great growth, during the early months, in the Mormon City of Nauvoo, the
temple was being built. The Nauvoo
Legion drilled faithfully, Joseph Smith Jun. was a candidate for President of
the United States, emissaries of the Church were investigating new areas where
colonies might be established when there were too many people for Nauvoo. Many converts were being added to the membership
by missionaries in England and other foreign nations.
No tolerance could be shown
to a small group of dissenters who dared set up a printing shop in Nauvoo and
publish statements contrary to Joseph’s beliefs and without his approval! It was destroyed immediately. But the non-Mormon people of the surrounding
community thought Joseph Smith Jun. had too much power and not enough respect
for the laws of the State of Illinois and the United States. He was arrested and while in the Carthage
jail waiting trial was assassinated by a mob. Brigham Young took charge of the evacuation westward which soon
followed and Nauvoo became a ghost city.
A
number of events which had a later
significant bearing on the lives of the Winterton family took place in 1846. On 25 April 1846 the first shot of the
Mexican war was fired at Rosia, Mexico and when the war was over and the Peace
treaty of Guadolupe Hidalgo signed on 10 May 1848, Utah ceased to be a Mexican
Province and became United States Territory -- Brigham Young and the Mormon
Colony were again subject to the laws of the United States.
15 June 1846 the United States and Great
Britain signed a treaty dividing the Oregon Territory peaceably, at the 49th
Parallel.
5 July 1846 California
declared its independence from Mexico and later as did Texas, joined the United
States.
6 May 1846 In Nottingham, England, William
Winterton, son of William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott Winterton, was born. He was the third Winterton destined to
immigrate to Utah in 1863.
10 Sept. 1846 Elias
Howe Jr. obtained the United States patent on his sewing machine and in 1851
Isaac Singer patented the rocking treadle type sewing machine. Can you even begin to guess how many items of
clothing the Winterton family womenfolk have made on these machines to be worn
by all members and descendants of the Winterton Pioneers of Utah?
1847 The
first Wagon train of Mormon Pioneers arrived in the Salt Lake Valley on July 24,
1847 following the Wagon tracks of the previous year’s ill-fated Donner Party. It was only four days later July 28, 1847
that President Brigham Young chose the Great Salt Lake City site of the LDS
Temple.
1847 On
May 18th a baby boy was born to William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott Winterton at
Nottingham (Carlton) England. Before he
died the next day he was hastily named John.
24 Jan. 1848 James
W. Marshall found gold at Sutter s Mill --now Sacramento, California -- and the
next year 1849 saw the famous California Gold Rush which gave extra impetus to
the western movement.
1849 the
year that Ann Winterton, daughter of William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott Winterton,
was born at Carlton, Nottinghamshire, England on the 11th of September. Ann was to emigrate in the year 1869 when she was twenty, arriving
in Utah on the new transcontinental railroad.
1849-1851 As
soon as the Mormon Pioneers reached Utah they held many important meetings. On March 10, 1849 the Constitution of State
of Deseret was adopted. On July 2, 1849 the
first meeting of the Assembly of the State of Deseret was held. On Feb. 28, 1850 the Univ. of Deseret was
founded. On March 13, 1850 Univ.
Regents selected the Campus of Deseret Univ. on the East Bench, some 500 acres
now occupied by the Univ. of Utah. On
Sept. 9, 1850 Utah was granted
Territorial Government. On Sept. 22,
1851 the first meeting of the
Territorial legislature was in session. On Oct. 4, 1851 the Utah
Legislature adopted all the laws of the Provisional State of Deseret.
1850 John
Hubbard Winterton and his wife Sarah Marriott Winterton and their two oldest
sons become L.D.S. converts and soon began to dream and plan of the time they
might go to Zion in North America and join the other Saints there in worship and
in living the new gospel. Many things
happened during the years that were to elapse between their conversion and
their arrival in Zion. They became the
parents of eight children, three of whom died in infancy, and the new church
that they had joined made many new converts and established its headquarters in
Utah in the Great Salt Lake City.
When missionaries (without
purse or script) of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints appeared in
the British Isles in the 1840-1850 decade and at the Winterton family home in Carlton,
Nottinghamshire, England, they undoubtedly told of the prophecy that had been
received by Joseph Smith in North America. They surely related the account of
the Angel Moroni appearing to him some 30 years prior on the night of September
21, 1823 in New York State and in North America. Saying that soon afterwards
men would dream dreams and see visions and there would come wonderful things
upon the earth such as mankind had never before seen. The Bible verses at Joel
Chapter 2 Verses 28-32 were said to have been the text of this message:
“And it shall come to
pass afterward that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and
your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men
shall see visions; and also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those
days will I pour out my spirit. And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in
the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into
darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and the terrible day of the
Lord come. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of
the Lord shall be delivered; for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance
as the Lord hath said and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call.”
What were some of these “wonderful
things”? must have been the question asked by our Winterton great grandparents.
The mechanical reaper patented in
America twenty years before in 1831 would be one of the answers: A marvelous
device that ended 5000 or so years of cutting grain with a hand scythe or
sickle. And of perhaps even more interest
to the Winterton womenfolk was the miraculous device that put a needle and
thread in a machine and eliminated the drudgery of hand sewing every garment
the family needed. Then both men and
women were now in the 1850
decade taking advantage of the steam powered railroad passenger and freight
service the slower oxcart and even the horse-drawn stage coach was being displaced
by a mechanical horse capable of achieving
previously undreamed of speeds. Had they
also heard of the new way of sending messages?
Words were put in a code and tapped out and sent by wires to people many
miles away in just minutes -- the wonders of telegraphy was no longer a dream. Had they heard that natural gas had been used
for illumination in Fredonia N.Y. on January 29, 1826?
Why hesitate? Here was proof that the messages received by
the prophet Joseph Smith were indeed inspired revelations from heavenly
Messengers. The prophecies and the
dreams and the visions actually came true. And still more were to come for God was pouring out his spirit to
give men the inspiration to change their lives not only in the use of these
material things but also in spiritual matters as well. The William Hubbard Winterton family believed
and were baptised and sought to follow the LDS gospel teachings.
They and their descendants
have seen the dreams and visions of men continue to come true with God’s
blessings for over a Century despite several world-wide wars, earthquakes,
famine and pestilence on various parts of the globe. They have seen the chain reaction which followed those early
beginnings just named. They have seen photography,
telephone, electricity, the automobile, airplane, radio, television, atomic power,
yes even missiles and space vehicles have been seen orbiting the earth in
minutes.
Whether the Mormon missionaries
and the Winterton family in Nottingham discussed other recent events on the
North American Continent we can only conjecture. Did they talk about the Lewis and Clark expedition that left the
Pacific Coast shore line near the Mouth of the Columbia River in March of 1806 to return to the young nation1s Capitol
with a report of their strange findings in the previously unexplored western
half of a continent? Did they talk of the fighting in Texas and the massacre at the Alamo on 6
March 1836?
Were they aware of the time
that it took to communicate between the Atlantic and Pacific coast areas of
North America? An example is the
anecdote told concerning Richard Henry Dana, a seaman and author of the popular
book “Two Years Before the Mast”, who sent a message from Monterey, California,
via horseback to Vera Cruz, Mexico, from there by boat to Boston, Massachusetts,
where it was received by the middle of March 1836 in only ten weeks elapsed time!
It was the fastest recorded
transcontinental communication in history of North America up to that time!
Perhaps the most
overpowering prospect or promise that influenced our Winterton ancestors back
there in the 1850 decade was the thought that the Bible verse at Deuteronomy 7:
6 was meant for them. It reads:
“For thou art an Holy
people unto the Lord thy God: the Lord thy God hath chosen thee to be a special
people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth”
The Mormon missionaries
surely explained that Moses had visited Joseph Smith only a few years before,
in 1836, and commissioned him to “gather Israel from the four parts of the
earth.” They must have believed, for a
powerful urge came over them. It was irresistible for they were willing --even
anxious -- to sever family ties, to leave acquaintances and familiar places, to
leave the community where their families had lived for generations. They must join that main body of Saints at
Nauvoo and later at Salt Lake. How many
times did they read those wonderful Bible verses ascribed to Jeremiah over 2500
years ago? The 31st chapter 6th-14th verse reads:
“For there shall be a
day, that the watchmen upon the mount Ephraim shall cry, arise ye, and let us
go up to Zion unto the Lord our God. For
thus saith the Lord; sing with Gladness for Jacob, and Shout among the chief of
the nations; publish ye, praise ye, and say, O Lord, save thy people, the remnant of Israel. Behold, I will bring them from the North
Country (surely this meant England), and gather them from the coasts of the
earth, and with them the blind and the lame,
the woman with child and her that travaleth with child together; A great company
shall return thither. They shall come with weeping and with supplications will
I lead them; I will cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way, (the Wintertons walked
hundreds of miles westward along the Platte River) wherein they shall not
stumble; for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is my first-born. Hear the word of the Lord, O Ye nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, he that
scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd doth his flock. For the Lord hath redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the
hand of him that was stronger than he. Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion (Salt
Lake City, Utah is almost a mile above sea level), and shall flow together to
the goodness of the Lord, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the
young of the flock and of the herd; and their soul shall be as a watered
garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all. Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old
together; for I will turn their mourning into joy and will comfort them and
make them rejoice from their sorrow. And I will satiate the soul of
the priests with fatness and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness,
saith the Lord.”
The Winterton Pioneers were
privileged to live out their life span and see many of the prophecies of Isaiah
literally unfold before their own eyes and the eyes of their children in far
greater profusion than the missionaries had ever suggested. Surely the dreams and visions of those
ancient prophets were inspired of a kind
and loving Father in Heaven. Did not
the desert wilderness yield to their efforts and husbandship and “Blossom as
the Rose” as foretold in Isaiah 35:1?
1851 On
the 4th of September Thomas Winterton, son of William Hubbard and
Sarah Marriott Winterton, was born at Nottingham. He was destined to come to Utah 18 years later on the railroad
instead of by the covered wagon train as his father and brothers did six years earlier.
1849- 1854 According
to Vol. 20 (1952) of the Utah Historical
Quarterly, The Perpetual Emigration Fund was founded by the Mormon Church in
1849. All or part of European emigrants
expenses could be paid by the fund with the understanding that those so
benefited would reimburse the society as soon as they were able. By 1854 it is reported that 6800 pounds had
been used to emigrate 1700 people. After 1853 a plan was developed where
Mormons with limited funds could pay 13 pounds at Liverpool and receive transportation
to Salt Lake. A publication
which William Hubbard and Sarah Winterton very likely read carefully and
joyously was distributed in Great Britain during the 1850 decade. It read:
“The channel of Saints
Emigration to the Land of Zion is now opened. The long wished for time of Gathering has come. Good Tidings from Mt. Zion! The resting place of Israel for the last days
has been discovered.”
By December 1860 over
29,000 Mormon converts had sailed from England and the Wintertons -- father and
two sons -- were soon to swell the growing number!
While the Forty-niners
pushed through Utah on their way to the California gold fields they traded much
of their merchandise to the people in the early Mormon settlements for
livestock and farm crops. This
increased encroachment of the whites displaced the Ute Indians from their
accustomed hunting trails, their favorite fishing places and their special
pasture grounds. Then in 1852 the new
Utah territorial legislature outlawed the Indian slave trade with the Mexican
silver mines and ranches. This and
perhaps other fancied or real grievances against the whites led to the Utah Indian
wars; the Walker War of 1853-54, Tintic War 1856 and the longer Black Hawk War
of 1865-68 in which John and William Winterton participated.
1853 On
26 of December 1853 a baby was born to William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott Winterton
at Nottingham, England; it lived only a few minutes and died before being
named.
1854 The
Crimean War began.
1855 On
30 December Hyrum Winterton was born. This child of William Hubbard and Sarah
Marriott Winterton lived less than four weeks. He died 24 Jan. 1856. Britain in war with China.
Originally, Utah includes
much more territory than her present boundaries which were fixed when she
became a state sixty-eight years ago.
Utah Territory 1856
The Provisional State of
Deseret (“Deseret” a Book of Mormon word meaning “honey bee” and symbolizing
industry) included in addition to present day Utah: parts of Idaho, Wyoming,
Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, and even a few miles of Southern
California seacoast. Various acts of
the U. S. Congress reduced these far flung areas to the present boundaries.
In addition to its present
29 counties, Utah also had ten other counties mostly in the 1850 decade: St.
Marys, Humbolt, Rio Virgin, Green River, Shambip, Greasewood, Cedar, Little
Salt Lake, Carson and Desert. The early
day map of Utah on an adjoining
page show some of these pioneer county boundaries.
14 May 1856 the
first camels were imported to travel the South West deserts with burdens of
freight for the mines, army and coast areas.
16 Sept. 1856 The
Mountain Meadow Massacre of 120 California immigrants occurred near St. George,
Utah.
1857 On
the 13th of February 1857 the eighth child of William Hubbard Winterton and Sarah
Marriott was born. Their second
daughter was named Sarah. E. G. Otis
installed the first practical elevator for passenger service in New York City.
1857-58 The
Winterton family was still in England when the so-called “Utah War” caused some
30,000 Mormons to be evacuated from the Salt Lake Valley before Johnston’s Army
marched through to establish camp Floyd in Cedar Valley a few miles west of
Lehi. The Army remained until 1861
buying food and supplies at good prices and hiring many of the local workers.
Then when they left, their surplus supplies and equipment, most of which had
been freighted west from the Mississippi at considerable cost, were sold to the
Mormon settlers at a few cents on the dollar.
15 Sept. 1858 the
first of the Butterfield overland Mail Stage coaches began its 24 day 2800 mile
journey between St. Louis, Missouri and San Francisco, California.
11 June 1859 the
famous Com stock Silver Lode was discovered in Nevada about that same time
across the continent at Titusville, Pennsylvania America’s first oil well was
brought in and at Chicago a cabinetmaker named Pullman converted a railroad
coach into a bedroom on wheels to eventually change the travel habits of the
nation.
1859 the year that the Charlestown area saw
the temporary camp of surveyors Charles Shelton and Alex Wilkins of Provo as
they made field notes concerning the topography of the Upper Provo River and
Wasatch Valley area. This was also the
year that the first known crops were planted by white men -- a small acreage of
grain that was entirely lost to heavy frost. The land claims were made by George Noakes, William and Freeman
Manning.
1860 Saw
the first crude log cabin and
some corrals built near where the town of Charleston is now situated. More settlers came with their families and
livestock and successfully harvested crops of grain and hay.
15 April 1861 President
Abraham Lincoln declared a state of Civil War which was to continue for four years
during which time the three Wintertons came to Utah. Also in 1861 on the 22nd day of May the much publicized
Pony Express was regularly inaugurated between Denver and California Gulch; and
on the 24th of October the telegraph line was completed across the Continent
and joined the two American continental coast lines, the Atlantic and Pacific. Another first for the years.
1862 a
detachment of Federal troops under Col. Connor founded Fort Douglas at the
mouth of Emigration Canyon on the Salt Lake East Bench. Lacking other assignments his troops were
encouraged to prospect in the surrounding hills for minerals, and were largely
responsible for the later mining boom.
1862 Mormon
Church authorities in Great Salt Lake City sent a message:
To all the Saints in
England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and adjacent countries we say: ‘emigrate as
speedily as possible … bring with you all kinds of choice seeds … of grain,
vegetables, fruit, shrubbery and trees to cheer the soul of man; also the best tools
of every description … and machinery for spinning, weaving, dressing cotton, wool,
flax and silk, etc … or models and descriptions of the same by which you can construct
them … such as corn shellers, grain threshers and cleaners … smut machines,
mills and every implement and article within your knowledge that shall tend to
promote the comfort, health, happiness and prosperity of any people.
1862 The
homesteading of land along the Provo River in the Wasatch Valley was opened by
the government this year.
1862 Early
in this year (January or February) the Utah Territorial Legislature created Wasatch
County out of portions of Salt Lake and Utah County. About 1000 persons were
then residing in the new area which included Charleston.
3 March
1862 The first county
road was established in Wasatch County starting southwest of Charleston and
running in a North-Westerly direction following the old immigrant trail terminating
at Ross Summit (Hailstone) on the Northern County boundary.
1863 This
was the year of Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address and his Emancipation Proclamation freeing
the slaves.
1863 It
was in 1863 that their long cherished dream became a reality and the three
Wintertons were aboard the sailing vessel “John J. Boyd” in the Liverpool,
England harbor and with other Mormon converts on their way to Zion in the Valleys of the Mountains of North
America.
1864 The
Great Salt Lake of the
intermountain United States has been described as a remnant puddle of the once
enormous Lake Bonneville. Fresh water Utah Lake some forty miles to the south is another fossil remnant of
geological time with drainage into the lower elevation to the north where
evaporation effects a super saturation of all the minerals carried down from
the surrounding higher elevations.
Before ancient Lake Bonneville found an outlet through
Red Rock Pass in Northern Cache Valley and escaped via the Snake and Columbia
Rivers to the Pacific Ocean, it covered much of the area that has been called
the Great Basin. It was about 350 miles
in length and 150 miles wide and over a thousand feet deep in some places. Its terraces are still to be seen along the
western slope of the Wasatch Mountains.
The Great Basin, and Utah
in particular, has about 97 acres of wasteland to every three that are tillable.
The small habitable valleys are
isolated between interminable strings of arid, barren rocky mountains and sandy
dry wastelands where even sagebrush has a hard time to live and where now (1963)
salt flats provide the land areas needed for “Bombing Range Sites” and “Race
Car Speed Trials.”
The Great Basin --The Zion
of the Winterton and other Latter-day Saints in 1863 -- the Valleys in the Tops
of the Mountains -- was formed by what geologists call the Cascade Disturbance.
It created the Wasatch and Rocky
Mountains and lifted the Plateau area of Southeastern Utah many hundreds of
feet above sea level. This rock wasteland
is a terrible and at the same time beautiful spectrum of color -- immense,
lonely and empty -- changing each hour as light and shadow vary with the earth’s
rotation.
The thousands of feet of
rock buckled into the air is sculptured by sandblast and wind and an infrequent
gully washing thunder shower. Its hundreds
of miles of meandering cliffs are carved and broken and split by deep narrow
canyons -- too wide to jump across and too long to go around -- even scientific
engineering investigation and survey have found only a very few places for highway
and railroad to cross the Colorado River and traverse the Southeastern Utah
area.
This is the area that
Brigham Young hoped no one would want and that Daniel Webster orated against
adding to the U.S. This was the
Mormons’ sanctuary, this was the refuge from the sinful world, this was Zion in
the tops of the mountains. This was the
country that our Winterton ancestors immigrated to one hundred years ago.
John Winterton, William
Winterton, George Noakes, (John’s future father-in-law) John Eldrige, David
Walker, George Giles, Joe Taylor, Stan Davis, Joe Bagley, Finity Daybell,
Manuel Richman, George Simmons, Ether Davies, Joe Nelson, Isaac Brown, Dave
Young and Eli Gordon were among the first to file on the land.
17 December 1864 The
marriage ceremony of William Hubbard Winterton and Elizabeth Hughes in Salt
Lake City, Utah Territory was performed this date.
1865 The
United States Civil War came to an end and President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated
in April of 1865.
1866 On
27 July 1866 the first submarine telegraph cable was laid across the Atlantic
joining the U.S. with Europe in a new and faster means of communication. This same year in September the first
keyopening tin cans were patented in the U.S.A. and expedited the storage of foodstuffs and facilitated ready
access to their contents. This was the
year of the Utah Black Hawk Indian War with the Winterton brothers participating.
As the Indian trouble subsided the families
moved back to the lands around Charleston and cared for crops and cattle
continuing to build their homes and farms.
1869 Copper
outcroppings had been discovered by the Bingham brothers in 1850 in the Oquirrah
mountains on the southwest side of the Salt Lake Valley. Iron mining and smelting had been tried near
Cedar City as early as 1852-53 and lead mining and smelting in Beaver County in
1858. But it was not until the coming
of the transcontinental railroad in 1869 that large scale mineral development
took place which was to furnish employment to many of the pioneers’ descendants.
The Silver Lead-Zinc
Deposits were discovered at Park City in 1869 and these were in particular only
a couple of hours horseback ride over the hill from Midway and charleston a
ready market appeared there for farm
produce raised in Wasatch County and hauled via team-and wagon within a one-day
trip.
Tom and Ann Winterton
emigrate from Nottingham to Utah.
Other 1869 mineral
(Silver-Lead-Zinc-Gold) discoveries were at Eureka, Utah, The Tintic District
and at Mercur and Ophir. The 1870’s saw
the fabulous Silver Reef west of St. George, Utah and the Horn Silver at Frisco
in Millard County.
Coal was discovered in
Carbon County (about this same time). A colony had settled at Price in Carbon
county as early as 1858. It was greatly
strengthened in 1877 and subsequently.
A group of American women
formed the National Woman Suffrage Association in the year 1869 with the avowed
purpose of securing the ballot for women by amending the United States Constitution
but, for the next few years, the Winterton women in Utah -- Elizabeth, Ann,
Emma and Ellen -- were more concerned with the day to day struggle for bread
and clothing and the care of their
little ones and husbands.
1869 the
Central Pacific Railroad and the Union Pacific Railroad joined their rails at Promontory,

had been destroyed, 250 people killed, and the estimated loss was almost
$200,000,000.
1870 On
the 10th of December Sarah Ellen Winterton was born, daughter of
William and Ellen W. Winterton. There

1963 Today
-- 100 years after William Hubbard and his sons John and William Winterton
arrived in Utah -- your guess is as good as mine, but I would venture to say
that the descendants of the Winterton Pioneers own (in partnership with the
finance companies) over 1,000 autos with television sets, radios, electrical
appliances and other modern conveniences in the same profusion.
Would not the people of the
1850’s have considered these “wonderful things” beyond the reach of the most
vivid human imagination, inspiration or dream? And yet we who have lived in the 20th Century have
experienced even more wonders, such
as around the world airplane flights and more recently manned orbital space
missiles circling the globe in a matter of minutes and more than a dozen times
a day.
Some thirty years after
Joseph Smith was reportedly visited by Moses and commissioned to gather Israel
from the four parts of the world we find the three members of the Pioneer
Winterton family in Salt Lake City in 1864 with some fifty or sixty thousand
others, singing from the heights of Zion “just as Jeremiah had prophesied at
the 31st Chapter and 12th Bible verse.”
Did not the missionary
preachers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from America point
to the 7th verse of the same chapter for their message text “Shout
among the chief of the nations, publish ye, praise ye, and say O’ Lord save my people the remnant of
Israel”? Yes Great Britain was one of
the World’s Chief nations in the 1840 decade and the Wintertons wanted to be God’s
people.
The 8th verse reads “Behold
I will bring them from the North Country … and a great Company shall return
thither.” The William Hubbard Winterton
Family was in the great Company that gathered at Utah and at the Temple in the
Great Salt Lake City. Certainly they
must have been of Ephriam’s branch of the House of Israel for they answered the
call to “Gather to Zion” in the Rocky mountains.
Verse 9 “They shall come with weeping and supplications”
…Recall with me those terrible days at Nauvoo in 1844 the martyrdom of the Prophet
Joseph and his brother Hyrum Smith. Then
in 1846 the forced evacuation of the saints from their homes and escape from the violent mobs across the February ice on the frozen Mississippi River,
nomadic wandering until they
could cross the plains. Certainly there was hardships, hunger and
privation, prayer, humbleness and weeping -- yes much sorrow but happiness too in
reaching the valley.
Verse 9 continues “I will
cause them to walk by the rivers of waters in a straight way wherein they shall
not stumble.” They walked father and two
sons of the Winterton family much of the 600
miles westward along the North Platte River and into the Rocky Mountains.
Verse 12 … “And they shall
not sorrow any more … for the wheat and wine and oil … and water (and verse 13)
… will satiate the soul … and my people shall be satisfied.” The
Wintertons planted crops and harvested them; they raised cattle; they planted
trees and ate their fruit and sat in their shade. They built homes and married and lived in the homes and reared
children and worshiped in the new land. The Winterton Pioneers were fed full with blessings and testified
of their gratitude for that fact in many public meetings.
Isaiah many thousands of
years ago foresaw that God would do a “new thing.” Let us read again the 43rd chapter of Isaiah 19th
and 20th verse “I will even make a way in the wilderness and rivers
in the desert. There was a “way” made
in the wilderness -- a new way of living and farming. Were not the first Utah pioneers inspired to
irrigate their late crops? And did not each group that pushed forward
the frontiers create rivers of water across the dry dusty desert? Yes the irrigation ditches across the parched
wilderness were rivers in the desert -- a new thing for the Winterton pioneers
from textile mills of Nottingham.
The 41st Chapter
and 18th verse reads “I will
open rivers in high places and fountains in the midst of valleys I will make a
pool of water in the wilderness and springs of water in the dry land.” What an apt and correct description of the
Utah irrigation systems built by the pioneers and their descendants. Picture the gates of the 6000 foot elevation mountain valley
reservoirs being raised on a hot summer day and the impounded waters from
melting mountain snow and ice rushing downstream. What are these but “Rivers in High Places”?
Have you ever seen an
artesian well drilled in the valley floor going down through dry earth, sand
rock etc? Then the water gushing up and
soaking the parched land so that seed and plants and trees soon flourished. What are these but “fountains in the valley”?
Yes the pioneers certainly created pools
of water in the Utah wilderness and springs of water in the dry land of many counties
of the intermountain west. A census of irrigation
conducted in 1959 by the U.S. Dept. of Commerce’s Bureau of
Census reports that 3,000,000
acre feet of irrigation water was delivered to 43,000 Utah farms that
year.
Surely
the Utah desert places in the wilderness have blossomed like a rose as a result of the work of the pioneer
Wintertons, their descendants and contemporary Latter-day “Israelite” pioneers from
many chief Nations.

died 19 February 1902
at Nottingham, England
The
name of William Hubbard Winterton did not come to my attention until the latter
part of the 1950 decade. When Viola and
I married in 1933 I knew her mother’s maiden name was Isabella Winterton and
rather vaguely that her grandfather, dead for some twenty years at that time,
was named John Winterton. I am sure
that her great grandfather’s name was not in our conversations then or for
quite some time later.
While visiting some cousins
late in the 1950 decade, we were shown a partially completed progenitor’s chart
with his name among other ancestors. The story of his two sons being early converts
and among the pioneer arrivals to Utah and in particular at Charleston in
Wasatch County was clear. But less was known about great grandfather William
Hubbard Winterton’s activities.
The book “Pioneers and
Prominent Men of Utah” written some fifty years ago by Frank Essholm was found
to contain on page #1256 a brief biographical statement indicating that great grandfather
was a convert in 1850 of the Mormon missionaries and had served as a home
missionary and teacher in England; that after coming to Utah in 1863 he
obtained employment as a Tollgate Keeper in Parley’s Canyon and died in Salt
Lake City in 1890.
The Salt Lake Genealogical
Society’s Library supplied some more research material in the form of cemetery
records. They would show the exact date of death or burial. The microfilmed
index encouraged me to look further; it showed great grandfather had purchased
by deed #991 (register A44) grave space in Plot B, Block 9 in the Salt Lake City Cemetery.
Looking further in the Salt
Lake Cemetery Records (handwritten entries preserved on microfilm tape), I
discovered the entry #10055 “buried Elizabeth Hughes Winter ton, wife
of William Hubbard Winterton, died 19 September 1889, in Platt B lot 9.” Their
residence and church membership was shown as in the 21st Ward in
Salt Lake City.
Six months later the same
record shows William Hubbard Winterton died and was buried at the same place. His entry is #1442 and shows the exact date of death as 16 March 1890. A book
on the shelves of this same reference library (catalogue # Utah S3) records on
page #1615 about the same information. Also
that Elizabeth Hughes Winterton (wife of “Wm. H.”) was born in England 30
August 1817 and that “Wm. H.” was seventy-three years old when he died.
Recently I was privileged
to become acquainted with and to read Hyrum Shurtliff Winterton’s memoirs and
history of his father’s family. His account
of the family’s trip to Salt Lake City and his recollections of a visit to his
grandfather which occurred some seventy years ago is excellent reading. The small boy, his two brothers, and possibly
his sister, too, were caught raiding their grandpa’s strawberry patch with dire
results. Possibly the old gentleman
didn’t mind the young uns eating a few of the nice ripe berries, but he sure
hated to see the whole patch tramped over, the green berries mashed and the new
runners bruised so bad they wouldn’t take root!
“Aunt Bessie” had a kind
word and listened attentively when the small boy told of the wonderful and
exciting sights he had seen on
the trip from Charleston -- a real honest to goodness steam engine and a long
train of freight cars -- and those high wheeled bicycles the big boys and men
rode about the streets of the City -- why didn’t they tip over? He had never before seen such strange things;
it wasn’t a bit like the farm life of the 1880s that he was used to up in
Charleston.
Hyrum’s account indicates
that great grandfather William Hubbard Winterton never returned the visit. For that matter he never was in Wasatch
County before or after his son William and family made their visit in 1883.
That was apparently the last time they saw each other for seven years later
both he and “Aunt Bessie” were dead.
The Ward Records of the
Salt Lake City 21st Ward of the LDS Church were my next source of
biographical information. They reported
that great grandfather William Hubbard Winterton was first baptized by LDS Missionary W. Clayton and confirmed
by W. Brewerton on 6 Jan 1850 in Nottinghamshire, England. He was re-baptized in Great Salt Lake City,
Utah Territory of the United States of America on 26 Nov 1864 by R. Ramsey and
reconfirmed 27 Nov 1864 by John Hall. He
married Elizabeth Hughes on 17 December 1864 in Salt Lake City.
On 7 April 1851 Wm. H. was ordained a preacher by T. W.
Brewerton. On 5 June 1853. Wm. H. was
ordained a priest. Elizabeth Hughes Winterton’s
entry on the 21st Ward microfilm record shows she was re-baptized
about 1866 by Bishop John Sharp (in Salt Lake City) and that her parents were
Joseph and Elizabeth Hughes. The spaces
to show from which ward they had been received were blank. She was
born in England and emigrated to Utah in 1856.
Elizabeth Hughes sailed
from England to America on the vessel “Samuel Cowling” embarking 19 April 1856
according to the Emigration Card Catalog in the LDS Genealogical Library in
Salt Lake City. She crossed the plains in “Bunkers” Company leaving Council Bluffs
(or Florence, Iowa) on 23 June
1856. Apparently Elizabeth Hughes
unmarried at age 38 had insufficient
funds or resources to make the journey. As an LDS Convert, she applied for and received help from the
Perpetual Emigrating Fund Company. She was
still indebted to this Fund some 21 years later as a book published in
1877 by the “Star Book & Job Publishing Company” of Salt Lake City lists
her name. The list of “Persons and
Sureties indebted to the
Perpetual Emigrating Fund Company from 1850 to 1877 Inclusive” is authorized by
that company’s officers: President Albert Carrington, Secretary Robert R.
Anderson and Treasurer Edward Hunter.
No Winterton name is found
in this list, which indicates that William Hubbard, John M., William, Thomas and Ann Winterton’
s emigration fares and expenses were paid for in cash or if they received an
advance from the Perpetual Emigrating Fund Company the amount had been repaid
in full before 1877. The names of five Widdison
girls, all friends and neighbors of the Wintertons, Sarah J., Mary Ann,
Elizabeth, Eliza A. and Ellen,
were on the 1877 list.
The Salt Lake City 21st
Ward, now of the Ensign Stake, was organized 5 July 1877 and detached from the
20th Ward which in turn had been organized in 1856 to include all
who lived north and east of “A” Street
and South Temple Street in the Salt Lake Stake of Zion. The 21st Ward
boundaries were west “H” Street, east “M”
Street, north 7th Ave. and south South Temple Street. It appears that they had been members of the
20th Ward before the transfer in 1877, but I did not find their
names when I viewed that microfilm tape, probably because it was faded and
partly illegible.
Great grandfather William
Hubbard Winterton worked as a Tollgate Keeper in Parley’s Canyon. On Page 194 of Heart Throbs of the West
by Mrs. Kate B. Carter, published in 1939 by the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers
we read:
“From the very
beginning of the settlement of Utah it was the people who paid for the
improvement and construction of the roads they used. The first travelers of course built their own roads. Where ever the wagons could not be pulled
across the desert lands, they unhitched their oxen from the wagons, unloaded a
plow or scraper and went to work. On
hillsides they often no more than plowed a furrow for the uphill wheels of the
wagon to roll in.
“Then as settlements
were made and efforts made to improve and make the roads more passable, a road
tax was charged for everyone who used
that particular section of road. These
were called toll roads to distinguish them from the trails where no charge was
made.”
Perhaps the earliest of
these Tollroads of importance and interest to .the pioneers of the Great Salt
Lake Valley or the State of Deseret was that built by Parley P. Pratt (a cousin of my great grandmother
Jemima VanCott Ambler). He and his associates spent the summer of
1850 improving the road in Big Canyon Creek. Because of this work the canyon soon became known as Parley’s Canyon,
which name has continued over 100 years down to our day. It has been said that he expended about
$2,000 in this work and that he collected $1,500 in tolls that year of 1850.
The road down Parley’s Canyon
is now U.S. Highway #40 and one
of the main east-west routes through the Rocky Mountains. It was originally known as the “Golden Pass”
Toll Road. On 29 June 1850 Parley P. Pratt advertised in Utah as follows:
“Travellers between
this state and California are respectfully informed the new road will be opened
by July 4th avoiding the two great mountains and most of the canyons
so troublesome on the old route. The
road is somewhat rough and unfinished but is being made better every day. Several
thousand are already expended by the proprietor who only solicits the patronage
of the public at the moderate rate of fifty cents for a conveyance drawn by one
animal, 75¢ for a conveyance drawn by two animals and ten cents for each
additional animal.”
Sheep could be driven or
hauled on the Golden Pass Toll Road through Parley’s Canyon in 1850 for only
one cent each!
Several years later after
Utah became a territory, the legislature passed an act empowering the road
commissioner to locate a state road in this same general area and to erect a
tollgate so that no one could use the Parley’s Canyon road without passing
through the gate in order that taxes or tolls could be collected to reimburse
for the cost of improvements, maintenance and road repair.
The toll was to continue in
effect until all costs were refunded. The rates established at that time were
as follows: wagon and two animals (hauling wood, timber, coal, rock, lime,
etc., 25¢; wagon and four animals hauling wood, timber, coal, rock, lime, etc.
, 37½ ¢; wagon and buggy, two
animals and passengers, $1.00; wagon and buggy, four animals and passengers, $1.50; loose animals, l0¢.
A
report made March 1948 to President Brigham
Young at Winter Quarters tells of the efforts to build bridges and roads over
Mill Creek and Jordan River: “ … our pathmaster is instructed to call men and
repair the roads as fast as is consistent with other duties. We tried to have them built by the “Hundreds”
but had to abandon the idea and try a direct poll tax on polls and property … estimates
are being made by the pathmaster
and the people are satisfied the labor tax will bear equal … and the bridges
will be speedily built.” (A later
estimate placed the cost of the first Jordan River bridge at $800.00.)
The Parley’s Canyon toll
privileges and concurrent road maintenance responsibilities passed in 1855 to
the Kimball and Associates group as Parley Pratt went to South America in
response to a mission call. The
contract was for five years and extended to the Karnas Prairie from the
mouth of Big Kanyon. The problem
seemed to be that the toll collected was not enough to pay for the cost of
maintaining the road through the narrow canyon where each thundershower would
cause new washouts.
The bridge across City
Creek (used free by General Johnston’s army in the spring of 1857) was another
toll affair. The rates were reported to be one cent per person on foot, two
cents if mounted or riding in a conveyance, three cents a head for animals and twenty-five cents for
team and wagon.
There was a Toll bridge
built across the Jordan River in 1853 with a Mr. Zimmerman acting as toll
collector.
There was a Toll Gate in Provo Canyon operated
by Sam Pyne in 1876-77. The Provo Canyon charges were somewhat higher than in Salt
Lake being $1.50 for a vehicle drawn by two animals and $2.50 if drawn by six
animals. A horseback rider paid
15¢; sheep, goats and swine were 5 cents each; and horses, mules and cattle could
be driven through for ten cents each.
It is likely that William
Hubbard Winterton as an inexperienced immigrant first worked as a laborer on
road construction that was sponsored by President Brigham Young and other
Church authorities and probably sometime in 1865 or 66 secured the less
physically demanding but certainly thankless position as road tax collector. A Jan. 17, 1867 bill approved by the Utah
legislature and signed by the Governor of the territory doubled the previous
toll rates in an effort to improve the Parley’s Canyon road.
A
Feb. 19, 1869 legislative enactment defined the duties of the
Superintendent of the “Salt Lake City and Wanship Wagon Road” and divided the
road into three sections with separate toll stations for each section. It may be that with the increased number of toll stations in Parley’s Canyon William
H. Winterton was hired and first collected tolls that year. The early impetus
for good roads quickly ended with the joining of rails at Promontory that same
year as the railroads were much more efficient movers of the longhaul freight
and passenger Loads.
Did William H. own a saddle
horse and ride from his home on the Avenues in the 20th (later 21st)
Ward to the tollgate site in Parley’s Canyon each morning and night? Or did he stay in the Canyon all week and
only come home for Sunday worship service? Or did he and Bessie both live in a canyon cabin near the tollgate
for the first ten or twelve years of their marriage? Perhaps they did not move to the avenue home until after his
retirement! No one seems to know many
of these details except that he was still working as a tollgate keeper in 1869
when Ann and Tom arrived in
Utah.
During the 1870 and 1880
decades many toll stations were unattended during the winter months and only sporadically at other times
because there just wasn’t enough traffic to pay the tollgate keepers wages let
alone collect any revenue for road building and repair. My guess is that great grandfather Winterton
and “Aunt” Bessie had a rather meager livelihood at best.
Great grandfather William
Hubbard Winterton arrived at his Zion in the Tops of the Mountains and in The
Valley of the Great Salt Lake early in September 1863 -- 100 years ago. The Murdock Company brought the hundreds of
emigrants over the route from the Black Hills country to the Mormon Church
Headquarters some four weeks quicker than did the Wells-Fargo Freight Wagon train that young John and William Winterton
had attached themselves to. In fact it
was Conference time in October when their slow moving ox teams lumbered through
the streets of the Great Salt Lake City on the way to California.
What an experience those
summer months of 1863 provided the forty-seven year old factory worker from
Nottingham, England! He was pleased, I
feel certain, when he considered the events of those months that he had been
fortunate enough to have been assigned to the J. R. Murdock Company. Why, he was the most experienced and capable
leader of all those who brought
the teams and wagons from Utah to take the
immigrants back across the plains.
Yes! before the railroad
was completed in 1869 -- six
years after great grandfather made the crossing -- this man Murdock had made
eleven (or was it twelve?) round
trips, perhaps more than any other Mormon wagon team driver. They say that Haight made seven, Roundy five,
Andrus, Duncan and probably others made three and … “there were scores of young
fellows that made one or two trips for the new converts but Murdock made at
least eleven and I was with him,” Wm. H. surely soliloquized.
It had been tiresome
waiting there at Council Bluffs for the teams to come in from Utah, but all in
all, the journey was well organized. But
why not? Wasn’t it the will of the Lord? Wm. H. recalled of hearing the account told many times of how
President Brigham Young had a revelation when the Mormons were evacuating
Nauvoo (14 January 1847 The Word and Will of the Lord Concerning the Camp of
Israel in their Journey to the West). Each wagon train company was to have divisions of Hundreds,
Fifties, and Tens with a Captain over each group. A blacksmith and
wagon maker with tools was assigned to each fifty wagons. Then our company had a President and two
Counselors, a Clerk and a Captain of the guard who were all sustained by a vote
of all the emigrants before we ever left our camp at Council Bluffs.
That guard duty was hard
for Wm. H. He had never been on the
prairie before, such strange noises and the stories he heard about the savages that
lurked out there waiting for a straggler – man or beast. What would he do if he were to actually encounter
one?
“The Mormon Wagon Trains
were fine examples of fairness but we were all required to do our share of the
work. If anyone neglected his assigned
guard duty, he would be publicly rebuked for the first offense and the second
time he would get extra duty herding the cattle. No profanity was allowed, no card playing and if one was found
being cruel to animals there was a heavy fine to pay. Only a moderate use of the whip was permitted those who drove the
teams,” recalls one pioneer journal.
“Each wagon took its turn
to lead off from the night’s camping grounds at 7:30 in the morning and the next day it would be last in line. In that way everyone had a turn at eating the
dust from all the other wagons. We all
had to be in our wagons by 9:00
P.M. except those on guard. No one
could leave camp without the Captain’s permission. Everyone in camp attended regular prayer meetings. Wagons and wagon wheels were inspected frequently
on the trip and kept in repair and spokes tightened or soaked in water, “ relates another paragraph by the same writer.
Can
we reconstruct great grandfather Wm. H‘s
thoughts while on guard duty outside the elliptical coral of wagons linked
together to prevent the animals from straying and to safeguard them from Indian
attack or theft. The animals have
grazed during the late afternoon and evening, the company is probably 15 or 20 miles closer to their
destination, the cattle have been
watered, the firewood has been gathered for evening and morning cooking, the
food for the night meal has been eaten, prayers said, the Captain of the Guard has
blown his horn and now I am responsible for
the safety of all these people and all their possessions.
Wm. H. hears the lowing of
oxen, the bleating of sheep, the neighing of horses near by and the howling of
coyotes and wolves out over the prairies and on the distant hills or possibly
an occasional bird. Then there may be
some quiet times broken only by the snore of some loud sleeper. Thank goodness one half hour has passed and the #1 guard has cried “all is right.” I
must answer him in kind. With such
enchanting scenes so fresh in his mind it is no wonder that Wm. H. had feelings
of praise, veneration and thanksgiving for the God of the Saints when he
arrived in Great Salt Lake City.
The wagons at the start of
the journey westward, generally, were each loaded with 1000 lbs. of flour, 50
lbs. of sugar, 50 lbs. of bacon, 50 lbs. of rice, 30 lbs. of beans, 25 lbs. of
salt, 20 lbs. of dried fruit, a gallon of vinegar and a dozen bars of soap
which was thought to be enough supplies for about eight or nine adults for the
several months the trip would take. The
experienced drivers might be able to shoot deer or antelope or other wild
animals on the trip to provide some fresh meat as extra food.
The few personal
possessions and bedding of each of the Wintertons and other emigrants assigned
to the wagon probably increased the load to about 2000 pounds which was a more
reasonable load than the 2500-3000 pounds often piled on the commercial freight
wagons. The next year 1864 saw freight
depots established by the Mormon Church along the route of travel. Several in Wyoming
were three stories high and warehoused as much as 2,500 sacks of flour and
70,000 pounds of bacon with beans, dried apples and other miscellaneous
supplies to replenish the emigrant wagons as they came by.
Then in 1869 most wagon
train travel was abandoned in favor of the new Iron horse -- the steam-powered
railroad locomotive and its long string of cars. Wm. H. was glad that Ann and Tom obtained transportation to Salt
Lake City on this wonderful new invention and did not have to tramp the long
weary way across the plains as he and their brothers John and William had done
six years before.
Great grandfather William
Hubbard Winterton with sons John and William crossed the Atlantic Ocean in the
sailing vessel “John J. Boyd” of
1400 tons registry and Capt. J. H.
Thomas, Master. They left the
Liverpool, England harbor on 30 April 1863 bound for New York, U.S.A. where agents of the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints provided them with rail
transportation most of the way to Council Bluffs. It was necessary to arrange a detour in 1863 through part of Southern
Canada because the fighting between the Confederate and Union armies had
disrupted rail travel in the southern Pennsylvania area that year.
The parting of the family
had been a sad experience -- Sarah had clung tearfully to young Bill until the
gangplank was being hoisted. Would it
have been better to have waited until they could all leave together? Surely it would be best for her to come later
when the three smaller children were older. Why, little Sarah was only six years old, she couldn’t possibly
make the trip across Ocean and Plains.
Wm. H. recalled their
twenty-one years of marriage. Of their
eight children three had died and the others had worked from the time they were
5 or 6 years old and nothing to show for it.
They just had to take a chance that things would be better in America. Thirteen years now since they had accepted
the Gospel preached by the LDS Missionaries. Other textile workers from Nottingham with no more worldly goods
than they had traveled to Zion.
Thirteen years since their
baptism. Wm. H. was certain that he had
learned to teach the new gospel as it had
been explained to him by the preachers and missionaries from Great Salt
Lake City. But Sarah had so little time to study and listen to the
explanations of some of the strange new doctrines. She was so busy keeping up the home and caring for the children
when she wasn’t at the factory -- actually when does she sleep? if ever?
Did William H. ever recall
Sarah’s insistence that he plant and raise vegetables -- something useful and
edible in the few square feet of soil connected with their living quarters
instead of those ”useless flowers” he
enjoyed. Certainly Sarah was the
practical one in the family who made their meager income -- probably not more than
two or three dollars a week by modern rates of exchange in the equivalent of
our money system -- that would be the earnings of the four of them in the 1850
decade with father, mother and two oldest sons working to bring home some 15-20
shillings a week at best.
She seemed particularly
troubled about the doctrine of plural marriage. It was rumored that Joseph Smith Jun. the Prophet had over fifty spiritual
wives and Sarah heard other disquieting stories at the factory -- those
busybodies. Well she had agreed to wait
a while until he could send for her and the three young ones.
It is not known when Sarah
Marriott Winterton first learned of her husband’s plural marriage. Did he plan such action before leaving
England? Did he write her before the ceremony?
Or did Ann and Tom first discover the
fact when they arrived in Great Salt Lake City in 1869? Sarah could never under stand it.
Despite offers by her
children to send her fare for the trip to Utah both before and after her husband’s death (and the other wife’s
death also) Sarah Marriott Winterton remained in England. When young Sarah married Arthur Parker, it
was soon evident that he spent too much time in the local pubs to support a
family so Sarah helped her daughter and grandchildren until they, too, left for
Utah.
Before her death in 1902 at
the age of 77, Sarah knew her posterity numbered 33 grandchildren with great
grandchildren in ever increasing number. She also knew Mrs. Widdison had died in New York City while on her
way to Utah. If widow Ellen Stafford
couldn’t live through the rigors of travel, she couldn’t either! Did Sarah ponder the reasons why Jane and
Elizabeth Widdison and their husbands had left Utah and the LDS Church to live in Nebraska and New
York?
There are many unanswered
questions about the life and beliefs of great grandmother Sarah Marriott
Winterton. Of this we may be certain, she wanted her children to have the best
opportunities available and made many sacrifices to assure their going to Zion
and a better life in Utah, U.S.A. than
had been her lot in the textile town of Nottingham, England.
While she could apparently
not reconcile herself to her husband’s second marriage, she tried to avoid
criticizing or embarrassing him. To her
sons’ offer of transportation and a home in Utah she replied “1 am afraid I
could not stand the long trip and especially the voyage across the sea.” Or was there in reality another reason why she
stayed in England. A man -- a better companion for her declining
years than William Hubbard had been? Family gossip, legend, or misunderstood remarks of their elders in
council overhead by Winterton youth who should haw been outside playing
indicate great grandmother Sarah may have decided (after learning of William H’s desertion and polygamy she called
it -- the Mormons said it was the doctrine of Plural Marriage) that two could
play the game. Be that as it may my
research failed to locate such a man’s name and many of the Winterton descendants
vehemently denied such a rumor.
Perhaps she had heard
accounts of the many hundreds, yes thousands, who had perished crossing the
Atlantic in over-crowded vessels with insufficient food and water and disease infected
passengers; and the uncounted numbers who were buried along the trail crossing
the plains and mountains of North America on their way to Utah. But I think it more likely
that she was ready and willing to brave those dangers and risk her life
to get to the Valley of Zion
until she learned of her husband’s plural marriage.
Since Orson Pratt publicly
announced that doctrine from the pulpit in Great Salt Lake City that day in
1852 and the press of the world had published stories for and against for a
dozen years before her husband and two older
sons left England, it would seem likely that Sarah and William Hubbard as marriage partners and as believers in
the Revealed Gospel had discussed the subject.
It seems likely that Sarah
had told her husband that the revelation Joseph Smith Jun. claimed to have
received in 1843 and kept secret from the world was not for her. She did not understand it and could not live
what she didn’t understand. Surely they
had read together or heard the words of the strange document read aloud by
someone with that much education. Perhaps
the song so many immigrants sang as they crossed the plains during the 1850s
and 1860s did not inspire her !
The
Emigrants Song
Ye Saints that dwell
on Europe’s shore
Prepare yourselves
with many more
To leave behind your
native land
For God’s sure judgment is at hand.
Prepare to cross the
stormy main
Before you to this valley gain
And with the faithful make a start
To walk across the plains with hand-cart.
Some must push and some must pull
As we go marching up the hill
As merrily on our way we go
Until we reach the
Valley. Oh!

The House at Carlton, Nottinghamshire, England in which
the Winterton family lived during the 1840, 1850 and 1860 decades as it looked
in 1910.
(Extracted February 1, 1964
as the manuscript of Winterton Pioneers of Utah was being prepared for
the printer from an old and partly illegible bound book preserved by his son
William Winterton and presently in the custody of his grandson Leo Winterton of Charleston. Most of the entries are concerned with his
(Wm. H.) missionary activities in the 1850 decade. )
My father John Winterton was born April 6, 1871 at Bredson or
Little Chester Derbyshire. My mother Ann Hubbard was born July 10, 1772 at Nottingham, England. John Winterton and Ann Hubbard were married
November 8, 1802 at Saint Mary’s Church, Nottingham. My sister Ruth Ann Winterton was born October 22, 1803 at
Nottingham.
(John Winterton served in
the British Armed forces and was in Africa during the Boer expedition of 1803
under the command of General Baird and was reportedly away from England for
twelve years returning disabled for further service and discharged in late 1815
[dates approximate]).
I (William Hubbard
Winterton) was born June 26, 1816 at Nottingharn. John Winterton, my father, died April 5, 1825 was buried April 8
in Saint Mary’s churchyard, Nottingham. Ann Hubbard Winterton, my mother, died January 20, 1857 about 9 in the morning. She was
buried in St. Ann’s Cemetery on Sunday Jan. 25, 1857.
I, William H. Winterton,
and Sarah Marriott were married October 24, 1842 at St. Paul’s Church, Nottingham.
Sarah Marriott was born February 14, 1825 at Nottingham. Her father was George Marriott born at

Carlton, Notts. April 29, 1855
Dear Brother
According to the
correspondence of the Presidency of the British Isles Franklin I. Richards I
set me down to pen a few lines to you. If you can assist me to gain the
desire of my heart. … (the next several sentences are illegible) … the building
up of the kingdom on the earth
and that my family may be away from this wickedness with which they are
surrounded for youth gets worse and worse -- more corrupt continually. If you can assist me or if you know of any
who can, I should be thankful. You know
a little of me and Brother William Reville knows a little of me. Give my respects to him if you ever see him
also Bro. Grimshaw. Tell them I am
still a Latter-day Saint with the desire by the help of God to overcome all
things. I am Sister Ann Crooks’ teacher
at this time and she desires me to write to you at this time. I do assure you the family is in the midst of
poverty -- but buoyed up in their spirits with the hopes of being shortly
relieved from bondage. She sends her
kind love to you all. They are all well
in health. Brother Carragan is our
Pastor now. War is now almost all of
what the generality of people talk about or think about. Parliament has granted 22 millions of pounds
to further carry on the war against Russia. I still live in the same house as when you used to call and see us
on Carlton Hill. You can ask Brother Moses
Thurston of my character when he arrives in your midst. He set sail out of Liverpool on the 20th
of this month. If you or anyone who you are acquainted with will send for us I
am willing to refund the money in any way you or the Authorities may desire. There is six of us at this time. The oldest (child) is nearly eleven years
old. I am a stocking maker -- earn
about 8 or 9 shillings a week
and they are reducing wages still further. Trade is very bad with us … (the next page is missing. It
apparently contained the closing of the letter).
My sister Ruth Ann
Winterton married at St. Mary’s, Nottingham on April 12, 1841 William Britton
born December 22 (or 23) 1796 at Nottingham. William died April 10, 1862 and
was buried at St. Ann’s Cemetery in Nottingham over my mother. They had no children. Ann died July 10, 1854 (my wife’s sister)
Eliza Marriott was baptized today by Elder Josiah Holmes and confirmed the same
night by Elder John Orton in Nottingham.
(my wife’s brother ) William Marriott was baptized Oct. 27, 1854 by
Elder Josiah Holmes and confirmed the next day by him and others. (my wife’s mother) Rachel Shaw Marriott was
baptized 25 April 1854 and confirmed next day by Elder John Wigley.
(William Hubbard’s journal
also contains names of people he knew or preached to that joined the Latter-day
Saint Church at about this time such as Chrabett Sharpe, Martha Chambers, Joseph
Shephard, Thomas Oliver, Nellie Oliver, Edward Smith, William Pierce, Mary Ann
Pierce (or Pearce), John Shephard and possibly some others, also to various
Elders whom he referred to as “Pastors from the Valley.”
On the 29th of
April 1855 I was ordained an Elder by Josiah Holmes. On the 10th of July 1854 my son William was baptized by
Elder Josiah Holmes and confirmed the same night by Elder John Wigley and
others. Tithing began in the Nottingham
Branch for the first time on August 10, 1856. John and William were rebaptized by President Josiah Holmes on
Sunday, April 5, 1857 and reconfirmed that afternoon by John and George Taylor,
missionaries from Utah.
On Sunday, April 29, 1855 at a special eleven o’clock
council of the Priesthood of Nottingham Branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints when various villages
was chosen and decided upon and volunteers were called for I volunteered to go to Burton and
Bulcote … I afterwards with Elder William Clayton administered the Sacrament of
the Lord’s Supper when some of the Brethren spoke on the liabilities of the
Priesthood. In the evening when I cam
home I prayed God my Heavenly Father to assist me, to magnify my high and holy
calling to his honour and glory amen.
June 10, 1855 went down to Burton and Bulcote,
delivered tracts out to several houses that would have them. Some people thanked us for them and some
refused to take the tracts (which were entitled) “Only Way to be Saved” on June
17th we (Bro. Mathews) changed to the tracts “Exclusive Salvation.” Got our dinner and tea at Brother Peterman’s
house. May God bless him and all his family.
June 26, 1855 I am 39 (years old) today. Attended Nottingham Council and was ordered
by Brother Holmes to labour alone in Burton. I delivered my testimony and some more tracts. Testified to the truth of the Latter Day work to several. May the
God of Truth, whose servant I am, assist me.
July 22, 1855 Went down to
Burton delivered out and changed some tracts. Bore a fruitful testimony to some
that God has set up his kingdom for to stand forever … attended Sacrament at St.
Ann’s Chapel and confirmed one boy … attended a meeting in the market at
Nottingham. Brother Butterick addressed
them and I conducted with a prayer … I went
down to Gunthorpe with Brother Stringfellow and bore our testimony that God had set up his kingdom -- very few
attended.
August 16, 18 55 Attended
Nottingham Council where I was approved
President of Carlton Hill District in all things … presided over meeting and asked
if any had questions -- bore my testimony that God had raised up a prophet and
had set up his church again with Power and
Authority in these last days.
September 2, 1855 I went down to Burton and
changed some tracts. A would-be
gentleman said the Mormons was a very bad set of people and would not take
another of our tracts as they weren’t worth reading.
April 26, 1856 I was
released from the Presidency of the Carlton Hill District and put to No. 1
District in Nottingham … Bought a pair of bedsteads of James Farmer who was
going away to the Valley of the Great Salt Lake. He asked 18 shilling and I did not examine them as I trusted his
word as a brother. I had but ten
shilling and he went from Nottingham without the remainder. When I went to take them down I thought 18
shillings was too much so did Bros. Ward, Shipley, and Pearce so I sent him six more shillings.
August 4, 1856 Preached at
Bridgeford only a few there -- about
a dozen were very attentive … Sunday School Anniversary. My son John and daughter Ann each said a
piece … preached in Old Fenton, not many present but very orderly.
The Presidents of the
Branches and all the Nottingham priesthood were rebaptised in the Nottingham
public baths on Feb. 29, 1857. Ezra T. Benson, one of the Twelve and Brother
Ray both counselors to Orson Pratt visited Nottingham and spoke that day on the
Reformation and need for rebaptism and reconfirmation.
March 15, 1857 Elders
William Pearce, William Stayney, Edward Smith, Teacher Sarah Smith and several
others cut off for neglect of duty and contempt of Council. May 10, 1857 Orson Pratt and Ezra Benson visited
Nottingham and preached in the assembly room three times.
(Great grandfather has
apparently made no entry concerning his final arrangements and experiences in
journeying to America and Zion in the tops of the mountains or possibly that
portion of his journal has been lost or destroyed. As indicated elsewhere he, John and William sailed on the ship “John
Boyd” in April 1863 and arrived in Utah during the autumn, September or
October, of 1863 in the John Murdock Company, one hundred
years ago. )
Feb. 9, 1863 (my son)
Thomas Winterton was baptized by Elder Isaac Gough at the New Baths in
Nottingham this date and confirmed Feb. 15, 1863 by Elder Thomas Pixton from
Utah.
Nov. 26, 1864 I (William
Hubbard Winterton) was rebaptized in City Creek, Great Salt Lake City, Utah
Territory U.S.A. by Ray Ramsey. Confirmed on Nov. 27 by Brother Allen
and-Bishop John Sharp.
Nov.
27, 1864 I was reconfirmed in the 20th
Ward Schoolhouse by John Hall.
December 17, 1864 Elizabeth
Hughes and I were married by Bishop John Sharp at his own house in the 20th
Ward, Great Salt Lake City.
February 24, 1866 We
(William Hubbard Winterton and Elizabeth Hughes) passed through our endowments and were sealed together for all eternity
by George Q. Cannon.
October 11, 1869 My oldest
son John married Emma Inkpen Noakes of Charleston this date. My son Tom and
daughter Ann have arrived from Nottingham.
Feb. 2 1, 1870 My son William married Ellen
Widdison of Nottingharn and my daughter Ann married George Noakes this date.
January 26, 1875 (my
daughter) Ann Winterton Noakes died this date in Provo Valley, Utah. Buried at Charleston, Wasatch County, Utah January
28, 1875. (As his granddaughter Anna was
born 1 Feb. 1875 William H. or someone writing for him in later years has
probably erred by writing January when February should have been shown.)
December 24, 1876 My
youngest daughter Sarah married Arthur Parker at the St, Nicholas Church in
Nottingham, England this date.
19 January 1877 My sister
Ruth Ann Winterton Britton died this date in Nottingham, England.
(1864- 188?) An entry -- clearly
not in great grandfather William Hubbard Winterton’s handwriting -- states he
worked in 1864 for Joseph Young in Lamb’s Canyon clearing roads. That in1865 and 1866 he worked on a farm -- some
indication that it was for the Young family. He was employed as a Tollgate Keeper in Parley’s Canyon from 1866
or 1867 until sometime in the 1880 decade. He lived in three different places in Parley’s Canyon keeping the
tollgate for Brother Brigham Young.
November 19, 1889 my
youngest son Tom married Fannie Boardman. He is the last of my children to marry.
In a shaky trembling
handwriting is the entry “Elizabeth Hughes Winterton died September 21, 1889 - burial
next day Salt Lake City Cemetery.
She was born August 30, 1817.”
The
last entry in the journal made by a handwriting
unknown to me reads: “died in Salt Lake City, Utah on the 16th day of March
1890 William Hubbard Winterton buried in the Salt Lake City Cemetery. Died in Nottingham England Sarah Marriott
Winterton on the 19th day of February 1902 and buried there.”
PART I
16 May 1844 - 29
Dec 1910
John Marriott Winterton was
born at Carlton, Nottinghamshire, England the first child and son of William
Hubbard and Sarah Marriott
Winterton. When he was about six years
old his parents were converted from their Anglican church religion to a belief
in the Gospel of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints.
Beginning in 1850 with his
parents’ baptism by Mormon missionaries the
talk and plans in the home was to go to Zion in the Tops of the
Mountains of North America. Wages were
low, the hours of work long, the tasks
were tedious, but there was that vision of someday crossing the ocean to a
better land and a better life. Everyone
in the family worked from the time they were able.
There were no child labor
laws in England in those days so John had worked in the textile factories some
twelve or more years before coming to Utah at the age of nineteen. Someone has previously recorded the story of
the Wintertons journey to Utah. Let’s let them tell it in their own words.
“As a young boy every one
in the home had to work to keep the family going. His mother was a stocking seamer at a factory and would bring work
home for her sons Will and John to work on and help her while they were very
young. She was seaming stockings for
the frames which was run by hand. Later
they worked in the factory themselves while still very young (by our 1963 standards).
John’s father joined the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in January, 1850, and his mother
joined in June of the same year. With his
mother, father and brother Will they would go to Church walking three miles
each way. In the year of 1863 when John
was 19 years old he, his father and his brother William set out to join the saints
in Utah by boarding the ship “John J. Boyd”

Grandfather’s story
continues “William celebrated his seventeenth birthday on the ship. We made a birthday cake and put it in the
fire oven, but the rocking of the ship tipped it out into the ashes. The cooks rolled it up again, ashes and all,
and put it back in the oven. There were
only two small ovens four or five feet square in which to cook for 700
passengers. We had to prepare our own
meals and nearly every time we tried to cook something the cooks would say, “There
is no room”, so we became discouraged and ate for a month on uncooked food. We ate hard tack and raw salty bacon. We experienced rough storms on sea, saw
people on deck almost drowned with waves going over the ship.
We landed at Castle
Gardens, New York, U.S.A. about May
20, 1863. On account of the Civil War,
we had to go around through Canada. We
traveled for hundreds of miles
through nothing but timber, sailing up the river two days and finally reaching
the Missouri River. While on board we
were not allowed to sit or lie down. We
were treated just like so many cattle. We arrived at Florence, Nebraska and found that the rebels had
captured the train the day before so we had to wait 24 hours for more cars. When they came the box cars still had coal
dust in them. (This ride in coal train was before the ride on the Missouri River.)
While waiting at Florence,
Nebraska about a month for the immigrants train for Utah, we went out and
worked for a Mr. Davis for
board. We learned, afterwards, that
this was against council but were glad we did not know as we were about
starved. The night before we were to leave,
father came out and got us. It rained so hard that we had to sit up in
the wagon all night.
We left Florence, Nebraska
June 29, 1863 with 375 souls in the wagon train. John R. Murdock was captain of
the company, with Brother Abraham Hatch as first assistant. We traveled with this train almost to the
Black Hills on the
Sweet Waters River.
There Captain Creighton’s
train drivers had left him to go to California where there was a gold rush so
Captain Creighton came to Captain Murdock for help. We stayed with Captain Creighton’s train but father continued with
his train to Salt Lake City.
This Company promised to
treat us well and to pay us $20.00 a month. Here is where we first experienced our first job with oxen. We traveled very slowly. On arriving at Devils Gate we turned our
cattle out for the night next morning we found some of them dead from drinking
Salaratus water. We stayed three or four days until another train came along. The leader told us to leave or it would kill
all the cattle. We traveled so slowly that
we were behind 4 weeks of the other train we started with. It was conference time in the fall of 1863
when we got to Salt Lake City. We drove
on to California but did not stay there.
I worked for Brother Isaac
Decker for the winter of 1864-65 feeding a herd of sheep, cattle and milk cows.
I dragged cedar wood from Cedar Hill in
Deckers Canyon, to keep five fires burning because Decker had four wives in
four separate places and we had our own fire to keep burning.
In 1866 the Indian trouble
began and Decker moved into town. That
left us to take the sheep north east of Heber but the people complained that
the sheep were eating the cows food so we moved them back to the ranch (despite
the danger of marauding Indians).
In the spring Mr. Decker
moved back with one of his wives and Will and I got our first experience mowing
hay with a scythe. We cut two or three
weeks. Mr. Decker and Farmer Little
bought the first mowing machine and cut the rest of the hay with it.
Mr. Decker gave us land
instead of the promised wagons. Will and I made a little dugout on our
land near William Bagley home and commenced putting hay up off our land,
because Mr. Decker would not help us put the hay up as was promised, we cut it
with a scythe. Later we sold the land
to William Bagley for 1400 feet of lumber.
In the fall we had our stack of hay and Mr. Decker paid us our wages in
sheep and they ate the hay.
In 1869 Mr. Walker told William and me we could have all we could
raise on the ranch land if we would take care of the place so we started to work.
The following Sunday President Hatch came to Finity Daybell’s house and held a
meeting. He wanted men to work in Provo Canyon to build a road and he didn’t
want any excuses. We had not gotten our
crops in yet, but we went. After we worked
two or three weeks we came back and planted the crops. The grasshoppers were so bad that year that
we had very little to depend on.
We received word that our
sister Ann and brother Thomas were with father in Salt Lake and wanted William
to come for them. My father was tollgate
keeper in Parley’s Canyon. We went with
pony team. Ann wanted to bring Nellie
Widdison who was in Salt Lake back with her. Nellie and Ann had been good friends and palled around together in
the Nottingham Lace Factory in England where they worked. They were both good singers and often sang
together. We hated to bring them here
as we had no lights, stove, or floor. When
Will got back he came over to George Noakes place, as I was visiting George Jr.
to get me to come home and help build a bed out of quakenasp poles for the
girls to sleep on.
Next morning will and I
cooked breakfast on the campfire because the girls weren’t used to our work and
ways. Will later married Nellie Widdison.
I was courting Emma Noakes at that time
and asked her to marry that fall,“ is the conclusion of this account of early
day pioneer experiences.
Grandfather John M.
Winterton fought in the Black Hawk War and was stationed at Decker Hall. He homesteaded at Charleston where he later
built
his own home and had a farm
and raised cattle.
Many residents of the
Wasatch Valley have appreciated the craftsmanship Grandpa John Winterton
possessed as a well maker. Most of these
wells would be dug by hand to a depth of between 20 and 30 feet, often iron
wagon tires would be used to hold the shoring in place while the digging was in progress, then as
Grandpa John carefully built up the rock
walls, sections of the shoring next above would be removed. The water would drop close to the bottom of
the well in the wintertime but as soon as irrigating started in the spring the
water table would rise to within a few feet of the ground level and remain
there all summer. He lived and farmed
at Charleston until his death Dec. 29, 1910 and is buried at the Charleston
Cemetery.

PART II
6 May 1846 – 14 Sept 1929
William Winterton was born
at Carlton, Nottinghamshire, England, the second child and son of William
Hubbard and Sarah Marriott Winterton. When he was four years old his parents
joined the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints. For the next thirteen years the family
dreamed and talked of the time when they could save enough money to go to Zion—the
Valley in the Tops of the Mountains in North America.
In the meantime it was
necessary for all to work to earn a meager living as the wages in the textile
mills of Nottingham where stockings and lace were made were notoriously low and
especially so when they were open only part time.
The Mormon missionaries
held cottage meetings occasionally in William’s parents home and at neighbors
places especially the Widdisons, but it was a three mile walk to the Church
services and another three mile walk home. The boy William did not like to go
unless his mother went too and she was often too tired to make the trip with
her babies after making stockings all week long.
William started to help his
mother knit stockings when he was six years old. Instead of going to school, he
went to the factory and put the yarn on bobbins so that his mother could keep
on operating the knitting machine without loss of time to prepare the bobbins
as some of the other women had to do. The mother-son team soon had the reputation of producing more
stockings at their station than anyone else in the factory.
This work in the factory
prevented William from attending school. What little book learning he obtained in later life was self
taught as he is reputed to have literally and actually “never went to school a
day in his life.”
Jane
Steadman - William Winterton Ellen Widdison and two of their
children: Moroni & Hyrum.
Old home in Charleston, Utah where Hyrum S., John
Joseph, Ralph, Moroni and Melissa Winterton were born.
It was in 1863 when he was
seventeen years old that he quit the knitting factory job and finally set sail
for Utah in America the gathering place of all who believed in the Gospel of
the Latter-Day Saints. When the Captain of the sailing ship “John J. Boyd”
shouted “all aboard”, William had to tear himself from his weeping mother’s arms
or be left on shore--his brother John 19 and his father were already aboard as
were all the other converts who had arranged for passage to the new land.
William’s son recalls
asking his father in their Charleston, Utah home during the 1880 decade why he
sat in such deep meditation. He replied,
“I am thinking of my mother; I feel I should go to England and see her and
bring her back with me to our home here. Her children are all here now and she is left all alone.” But he was never to realize his desire to
again see his mother
who had sacrificed so much
to get her family to Utah. Her answer
to his letters and offer to pay her expenses to Utah was “I am afraid I could
not stand the long trip and especially the voyage across the sea.”
William Winterton left his
father at the Black Hills as their wagon train crossed the Sweetwater River
near there. He had obtained a job as an
ox team driver for Wells-Fargo Co. under Captain Creighton. It was October before the slow-moving wagon
reached Salt Lake several weeks after his father’s arrival. William continued on to California and did
not reach Utah for a permanent home until early in 1864.
He then drifted about
seeking work first in the Salt Lake Valley, then at Provo and finally by 1865
he decided on the Wasatch Valley which was just beginning to be settled.
William had traveled as far as Wanship in Summit County in his search for work
and it was late fall when he visited his brother John at the Decker Ranch on
the west side of the Provo River near what we now call Charleston.
When the Decker Brothers,
Charles and Isaac, offered him his board for the winter if he would stay there
and work, he .accepted for at least the Winterton brothers would be together and
have something to eat for the next several months. The brothers herded the Decker’s sheep and cattle, gaining
valuable experience in farming and ranching in this new and strange country.
In the spring of 1866 with
the Indian trouble and the Black Hawk War starting all the people in the
Charleston area were instructed by the Church authorities to move to the fort
at Heber. The Decker cattle and sheep
being more numerous than the other settlers soon threatened to eat all the
pasture near the fort.
To avoid trouble William
moved the herds back to the Charleston area and was later joined by the Noakes
and other menfolk while the women and children remained in the relative safety
of the fort. For several months though in 1866 he was apparently the only
person in the south end of Wasatch County and could easily have been harmed had
any Indians chanced upon him and his herd.
William Winterton was no
doubt lonesome while herding the flocks and thought about how nice it would be
to get a letter from his mother or his friends. But where would he go to find a
post office? Heber or Provo were the
closest places and he could not leave the herd that long. One day when the mail carrier stopped to feed
his horse and eat with the lonesome sheepherder, he voiced his problem.
James Herbert is reported
to have said, “If you fellows around here will give me a name for this place, I
will bring your mail to you.“ The name
chosen was Charles’ Town in honor of Charles Decker, one of the leading
settlers and farmers of the community and the year was 1867. Soon common usage shortened and abbreviated
the name to that of Charleston as we use it today. Another account contends that William and a man named Parcel1
were herding their sheep and Parcel1 had told such glowing accounts of
Charlestown, South Carolina that William thought it would be a good name for
the Provo Valley area where he lived. It
was probably the next year 1868 that he (Decker) brought the first mowing
machine into the valley; prior to that time the Wintertons and others cut their
winter hay with a scythe.
William Winterton is
reported to have brought the first grain reaper into the Wasatch Valley a few
years later. It took three good men to
tie the bundles with straw bands as fast as this machine could cut the grain! This was much easier and faster than the hand
cradle the Wintertons and others had swung in previous years.
William Winterton was happy
to see his brother John marry Emma Noakes in October 1869. He was even more happy and somewhat embarrassed,
too, when his sister Ann and brother Tom arrived from England about that same
time and brought their
childhood friend and neighbor Nellie Widdison with them. Nellie was a lovely woman of 20 years and Ann
a few months younger. What would they
think of the way he was living; his home had only a dirt floor and he had no
stove to cook on and no bed for the girls to sleep on!
Junior Noakes and Brother
John helped solve the bed problem by cutting slender quaking aspen poles and
framing them into a homemade bed stead. Tied together with strips of rawhide
hurriedly cut by the light of a campfire and filled with fresh straw it served
to provide a reasonably comfortable night’s sleep. Yes, Junior was George Washington Noakes, brought to Utah when he
was three years old and four months later he was the husband of sister Ann. They were married the same day that William
married Nellie Widdison, 21 Feb 1870.
Nellie’s three sisters had
come to Utah and were married before she arrived. They were Mrs. Fred (Mary Ann
Widdison) Brewster of Salt Lake City, Utah, Mrs. John (Jane Widdison) Craddock
of Omaha, Nebraska, and Mrs. Joe (Elizabeth Widdison) Squires of Brooklyn, New York.
Her brother Heber William Widdison came
to America in 1873 and Nellie‘s widowed mother died in New York City in 1873 as
she was on her way to rejoin her daughters and the other Saints in Zion.
As William Winterton’s
family grew he built better housing and acquired more land and livestock. It was shortly after their tenth child was born
and only two weeks after their 19th wedding anniversary that Nellie died of
complications from a throat goiter.
William Winterton’s wife
Ellen “Nellie” Widdison was the daughter of William Widdison Sr. 1813 - 1855 of
Nottinghamshire, England and Ellen Stafford born 1819 at Arnold, Notts, England
died about 1873 at Brooklyn, New York.
Ellen Widdison Winterton’s
paternal grandparents were Thomas Widdison and Ruth Rigley who were married 16
Sept 1809 presumably at Nottinghamshire, England.
Ellen’ s maternal
grandparents were Ralph Stafford of Arnold, England and Mary McMannus of
Ireland. Her great grandparents Samuel Stafford
and Martha Newharn were married 11 Feb 1771 at Arnold, Nottinghamshire,
England, and her second great grandparents were also born there in the early
part of the 1720 decade, William Newharn and Catherine Musson.
William Winterton’s
posterity numbers close to 700 people at this writing, 100 years after his arrival
in Utah. His son Hyrum Shurtliff
Winterton in writing his father’s story counts some 90 relative s who have
followed him into the foreign mission fields, and 160 relatives who have had
Temple marriages. Eight of William’s
descendants have served their Church in Stake High Councils, twenty have been
members of Ward Bishoprics, and many others have served in the Relief Society,
Sunday School, M.I.A., Primary and in other church work.
The book “Pioneers and
Prominent Men of Utah” written by Frank Essholm some fifty years ago summarized
Pioneer William Winterton’s activities by saying he was a prominent and successful
rancher and livestock raiser, having reared a large family, that he was one of
the leading forces in the construction of the first irrigation canal on the
Upper Provo River which has always been known as the Charleston Canal; he
worked on the railroad in Echo Canyon; he was an early member of the guard
against the Indians’ depradations on the Provo under the leader ship of Edward
Pea; he served his church as Ward Teacher, High Priest, President of the Deacon’s
Quorum and in many other ways.

enjoy a large posterity. Everyone in
Charleston and surrounding area it is said enjoyed a drink of her favorite
recipe for homemade herb beer. It is reproduced here for your pleasure.
Gather, wash and dry herbs.
Then take following amounts of each and
put in a large kettle with about 1 ½
gals. water each time and bring to a boil, then strain. Fill up kettle a second time, bring to a boil
and strain one more time. Strain into a
honey can with lid taken off (5 gal. tin).
Into this put 8 or 12 cups of white granulated sugar and ¼ cake of
Fleishman’s yeast. Let stand until white
foam covers top of liquid, then bottle and cap. Be sure to keep in a cool place to cure for about 24 hours before
drinking. Treat as you would homemade root beer.
(Plan to have about 4
gallons of liquid with the three cookings.) If no old honey can is available, better
add a tablespoon of honey. For tart tasting
beer use the lesser amount of sugar.

PART III
18 May 1847
– 19 May 1847
John Winterton, the third
child of the William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott Winterton family, was born at Carlton,
Nottinghamshire, England. He died the following day so his naming was hurriedly
done. Possibly it was only after his
death that the name John was also given to the older surviving brother previously
known as Marriott. Or it may be that this
child was actually the first born and the year of birth was 1843 not 47 as
indicated above and elsewhere in this book. The latter would seem the more logical explanation of there being
two Johns in the family. If he was the
first child and was born prematurely seven months after his parents marriage,
the early death would have a reasonable explanation. Family records conflict on this point probably the result of
someone making an error in copying the date. I believe the correct date of birth is March 18, 1843 (three, not
seven) as shown in William Hubbard Winterton’s journal; the date of death then
is probably 19 March 1843.
PART IV
11 Sept 1849
- 26 Feb 1875
Ann Winterton was born at
Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England the fourth child and first daughter of
William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott Winterton. At an early age she was put to work in the textile factory near
her home.
Within the year following
her birth her parents joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
and when she was about fourteen her father and two older brothers left England
for Utah.
She soon became a skilled
lace maker and was able to save a few pennies a day toward her passage to
America and the Land of Zion in the Tops of the Mountains in Central North
America. It took six long years of
saving before she too could leave England and the unbearable factory surroundings.
Ann had friends who had no
more opportunity for schooling than she but that did not prevent them from
participating in the Nottingham Choir and singing songs and Christmas Carols at
Church and on the public streets and neighbors’ homes. She and Nellie Widdison, who later married
her brother William, were close pals during their teenage years and later after
their marriages lived as neighbors at Charleston for the five short years
before her untimely death.
Ann Winterton arrived in
Salt Lake City in September 1869, the first year that the railroad was
completed and was probably on one of the trips scheduled during its first
summer of operation. Her first stop in Salt Lake was to visit her father and
then she went to Wasatch County to visit her brothers. It was while there that she met and fell in
love with a young man who lived a few miles from her brother’s place. Ann left
England on 28 July 1869 aboard the sailing vessel “Colorado.”

brothers. Brother John married Emma
Noakes in October 1869 and four months later on 21 Feb 1870 at a double wedding
Nellie married Brother William and Ann married Emma’s brother George Washington

PART V
4 Sept 1851
- 10 June 1918
Thomas Winterton was born at
Nottingham, Nottinghamshire, England the fifth child and fourth son of William
Hubbard and Sarah Marriot Winterton. When he was not quite twelve years old he
witnessed the tearful parting of his parents and saw his father and older
brothers John and William leave for America.
He worked at the textile
mills to help his mother and sisters and to take his brother’s place as best he
could for six long years. He was frugal
and anxious for the time when the family might be reunited in the New World. In 1869 when he was eighteen it was finally
arranged for him and Ann to go to Utah. His mother and twelve year old sister Sarah would stay in England
until there was more money to buy their passage. He sailed from Liverpool Harbor on 28 July 1869 on the vessel
named “Colorado.”
Thomas crossed the plains
on the New Iron Horse and did not have the experience of driving an ox team
freight wagon as his brothers did some six years before. His trip was much quicker as he was in Salt
Lake City by late September.
Thomas Winterton was to
remember and cherish the acquaintance of the LDS Missionary serving his home
area during that last year in England. His name was Sherrill Shurtliff whose name was chosen for one of
brother Wil1iam’s sons. Missionary
Shurtliff was instrumental in making the final arrangements for Tom and Ann to
leave England when they did along with Nellie Widdison and others.
Thomas Winterton settled
and lived at Charleston as his brothers did and when he was thirty-eight years
old married on 19 Nov 1889 Miss Fanny Boardman. The marriage license was issued and the marriage ceremony
performed on the same day at Provo, Utah County, Utah. The record is preserved in Book 1 page 122 of
the Marriage Records of Utah County. Justice of the Peace W. H. Brown performed
the ceremony. Fanny gave her age as 40
years and listed Provo as her residence according to the card file of
Early Church Records at the
Salt Lake Genealogical Library.
Tom and Fannie Boardman Winterton as they looked about
1890.
Donald Panama 3rd one of the Winterton purebred Champion
Hereford sires.
They were living “two miles
out on the Springville Road in Provo” when their nephew Hyrum Shurtliff
Winterton was living with them and attending the B.Y. Academy about 1897-1898.
W15 Thomas
Winterton on 19 Nov 1889 married Fannie R. Boardman born 17 Sept 1849 died 7
May 1924 daughter of Robert Boardman and Mary Green. The obituary notices in
the Salt Lake City Deseret News and Tribune newspapers of 8 May 1924 are on
file in the Church Historian’s Office and on catalogue cards microfilmed at the
Salt Lake Genealogical Library.
Fannie and the Boardman family
were Utah Pioneers of 1861.
Tom and Fannie lived most
of their married lives in or near Charleston in Wasatch County, Utah. Tom
earned their livelihood from agricultural pursuits, raising livestock, hay and grain
on farm land adjoining his brothers places.
No children.

North America beyond the western shores of the Atlantic Ocean.
Sarah was only twelve years
old when her sister Ann and brother Thomas left for the same destination
in.1869. She stayed with her mother and
probably worked with her in the stocking factory for their sustenance and
shelter until her marriage.
Sarah married about 1877
Arthur Parker and became the mother of four children; one of the twins died
shortly after birth and her son John Parker died in England soon after an early

PART IX
John and Ann Winterton’s In-Laws
Earlier in the book the
marriage of John Marriott Winterton and Emma Inkpen Noakes has been described,
so also has the marriage of his sister Ann to Emma’s brother George Washington Noakes
been noted. It is because of this
special interest this “double-cousinship” of the two families progeny that it
was decided to include a brief account of the Noakes pioneer family in the Winterton
book.
George W. Noakes Sr. (and
his father’s family) left England some 35 years before the Wintertons having
lived in Ohio and other states before coming to Utah in 1852. He lived at Salt Lake,
Cottonwood and Alpine, Utah before settling in 1859-60 on land in the Provo
River Valley at Noakes Springs just south of Charleston - an area now covered
by waters of the Deer Creek Reservoir.
In order to have a family
coding system comparable to the Wintertons, “N” will stand for the Noakes name
and “N1” will stand for George W. Noakes Sr. the father of Emma and George Jr. who
married into the Winterton family. N15
as the following family group presentation shows is the family code number of George
Washington Noakes Jr., husband of Ann Winterton W14; likewise, “N18” is the
number of Emma Inkpen Noakes, wife of W11 John Marriott Winterton.
George W. Noakes Sr. was
born on 4 Sept 1811 at Udimore, Sussex, England, died 11 Sept 1893 at
Charleston, Utah. He was the son of Thomas
Noakes 1791-1871 and Emma Inkpen 1789-1851 who are buried in the Salt Lake Cemetery.
He was the grandson of
William Noakes and Elizabeth Honice. He
was the great grandson of Thomas Richard Noakes and Mary Susans. He is thought to be the great great grandson
of Zebulon Noakes and Elizabeth Ketchley of Sussex County, England who were
married about 1720.
About January of 1838 at
Commerce, Illinois, (later Nauvoo) George Noakes married Sophia Crowfoot
1818-1904 daughter of Benjamin Gideon
Crowfoot and Samantha
Sackett. Sophia joined the LDS Church
within a few years after its organization in 1830 having heard its originator
Joseph Smith Junior discuss its principles in her Ohio home.
George Noakes was
apparently not baptized a member of the Mormon Church until 1849. He was a ward teacher, Superintendent of
Sunday School, a Seventy and acted in other Church capacities. George and Sophia were parents of twelve
children:
N11 Mary
Noakes born 17 Sept 1839
N12 Cornelia
Noakes born 19 Dec 1840
N13 Rosarner
Noakes born 1 Jan 1843
N14 Eliza

N16 William

The first four children N11 Mary, N12 Cornelia, N13
Rosamer and N14 Eliza are believed

A book entitled “Noakes
Pioneers of Utah” is planned for an early publishing date possibly by 1965. It will contain a more detailed historical, biographical
and genealogikal account of the progenitors and descendants of the Thomas
Noakes family who emigrated from England in 1828, and from the Ohio Valley in
the 1840 decade to be among the earliest of the Utah Pioneers. The book will be organized in two sections,
one for the George and Sophia Crowfoot Noakes family of Charleston, Utah and
the second section for his younger brother John Hubbard and Susan Childs Noakes
family of Springville, Utah. A separate
chapter will be devoted to each of George and Hubbard Noakes’ twenty-three
children. If interested, inquire of the
author of this book – see fly page for address.
PART X
A busy Winterton mother was
overheard to say to a neighbor, “I could be such a good parent if I wasn’t so
darned busy raising kids.”
How should a family history
book, intended as a memorial to our pioneer great grandparents, end? Just where or when can we really say “it’s finished’’?
Is there anyone, any place who has a satisfactory
answer to these questions?
I haven’t found the answer
and yet I know that both space and financial limitations impose a restriction
as to what may be written! Neither have
I been able to trace all of the descendants of William Hubbard Winterton and
Sarah Marriott. The present whereabouts
of several of their great grandchildren and possibly great great grandchildren as
well as these progenies’ names is unknown to me.
Much as I regret not being
able to include their names and other biographical and genealogical data to
make a more complete record, it seems necessary to proceed to print the data
that is available.
It is quite possible that
my research was inadequate or faulty and that some of the incomplete family
lines of the Winterton descendants will feel slighted to learn their names and
records are less inclusive than they might have been. My apologies -- I can only say that I tried
to find you.
Several other Winterton
cousins either failed to acknowledge my correspondence, or I was unable to
secure a correct current address.
The question has been asked
“doesn’t anyone know for sure who our ancestors were back in the 15th
or 16th centuries”? My
answer is in the negative, at least, I am not aware of a source of such
information. This book contains all the
information of the progenitors of William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott Winterton
that I could find – as you have noted it is of uncertain substance even as early
as the middle of the seventeenth century.
Did William H. or Sarah or
their parents have any idea when they married in England in the 1840 decade to
what numbers their progeny would reach by this 100th anniversary of
their arrival in Utah? Possibly they
didn’t even discuss the subject being too busy with the day to day, yes even hour
to hour struggle to feed their stomachs and find a small measure of shelter
against the night and the storm.
Surely the United States of
America, a young country on a new continent, had a need for such as they who
had an appreciation for “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” Such restless spirits were needed to pioneer
and colonize in the mountains and valleys of the West -- needed to cross an ocean, plains and rivers
to find their homes and cease to be strangers to these shores.
Several years ago when I
stood in New York City Harbor and looked at the Statue of Liberty and read the inscription
written by Emma Lazarus, I thought how aptly it applied to the William Hubbard
and Sarah Marriott Winterton family in England as well as to the thousands of
other American immigrants.
“Give me your tired, your
poor,
Your huddle masses yearning
to be free,
The wretched refuse of your
teeming shore.
Send the homeless
tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my hand beside the
golden door. “
The William Hubbard
Winterton family was part of the 5 million European immigrant group arriving in
the United States between 1850 and 1880 that helped offset the high civil war
mortality rate. Their descendants are
taking part in the population boom of the past decade which has been triggered by
the introduction and discovery of life saving drugs, antibiotics, surgical techniques
and unprecedented economic prosperity. Every
10 or eleven seconds during the past year our nation’s population gained one
more person. Here in Utah and in nearby
states the Winterton descendants were likewise growing in numbers.
I believe William Hubbard
Winterton and Sarah Marriott would have been amazed to see this listing of
several thousand of their descendants. Yet
this family’s growth is not any more phenomenal than many another pioneers of
the same time and place. Population
estimates place some 300,000,000 people on earth at the time of our Savior’s
birth and 1700 years later the estimate doubles to 600,000, 000 people. Now 1963 years later the figure is ten times
as great and the estimate is thought to be a quite accurate figure of three billion
(3,000,000,000). What a small drop in
the bucket we Wintertons are when viewed in comparison to these numbers.
Utah had a population of
890,000 people in 1960 where 113 years before there were just a few small
roving bands of nomadic “Yuta” Indians.
While this account shows some dispersion from Utah to other states on
the part of William Hubbard Winterton’s descendants, I think it safe to
estimate at least eighty percent of them still live within our borders. Would it be boasting to say that 1/6 of one
per cent of Utah’s present (1963) population is composed of William Hubbard and
Sarah Marriott’s progeny?
The Winterton descendants
are interesting and important people; it is to be hoped this family history
will preserve a permanent and lasting record of these several thousand persons
even though they do represent less than 1% of the State of Utah’s present
population and an even more infinitesimal portion of the Nation’s and earth’s population.
The Winterton descendants have included
among them men and women of almost every kind of occupation or profession.
There have been cattle
breeders, government and Church officials, educators, farmers, miners, livestock
raisers, businessmen and storekeepers, soldiers, sailors and airmen, laborers and
workers in factories and on construction projects -- they have been
missionaries, nurses, cooks, waitresses, janitors and teachers. Some have traveled only within the state--to
the next county; others have gone to other states and still other Wintertons
have traveled extensively about the earth going to other nations and
continents.
But most of the descendants
of our Utah pioneer ancestors who still bear the family name remain in Utah. They reside in the Valleys in the Tops of the
Mountains of Zion to use the poetic phrase. They live in Salt Lake, Utah, Wasatch and other counties of Utah
USA to use a more prosaic wording.
To be still more exact and
comparative in my statements I referred to the telephone directories of a
number of communities across the width and length of our nation. Here is what I found. These are the numbers of Winterton names
with telephone service in the respective cities. Salt Lake, Utah, 9; Provo, Utah, 6; Charleston (and Heber Valley),
Utah, 6; Roosevelt, Utah, 4; other Utah communities, 4; total in Utah, 29.
Metropolitan Los Angeles,
California, with five separate telephone directories listed only four Wintertons.
Seattle, Kansas City, Boston and Dallas
had one each. Chicago had two. Cleveland, Washington D.C., Pittsburg,
Minneapolis, Miami, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Baltimore, Detroit and San Francisco
listed none. LaGrande, Oregon and Sand
Point, Idaho directories were not available to me but I know at least one
Winterton family in each of those places who has a phone. Total 12 Winterton phones in selected cities
in other states.
Let us be honest with
ourselves and those that will read this record at some later date. A few of us are just a little bit less than
perfect. I was pleased to read that
experienced genealogical researchers admit that even the noblest and most royal
of ancient families sometimes have a confused ancestry with a mysterious family
skeleton or two hid in a closet. Why
should the Wintertons be any different?
Can’t we be lenient in our
judgments and tolerant of such marital misfeasance or malfeasance we might
think to have discovered in ancestral family or collateral lines? It could be, you know, that some amateur
researcher or typist has erred -- not a Winterton ancestor or cousin.
Please don’t be chagrined
if the exploration into the past and present reveals a Winterton family tree
with an embarrassing twig or two -- even a rotten limb might show up. Just remember it1 s what you and I do that
counts, not what our ancestors did or didn’t do.
While on this subject I’d
like to repeat that old sagacious saying: “There are no delinquent or
illegitimate children -- it is their parents who are responsible.”
An anonymous writer has
described the birth and death of the several generations of a family in the
following words: “Aye thus it is, one generation comes, another goes and
mingles in the dust; and thus we come and go, and come and go, each, for a
little moment filling up some little place, and then we disappear in quick
succession, and thus it shall be so until time, in one vast perpetuity, is
swallowed up everlastingly.”
We must bring the writing
of this book to a close but the story of the William Hubbard and Sarah Marriott
Winterton family and their descendants goes on indefinitely. It would be interesting to know about the
children and other progeny of our great grandparents’ collateral ancestors.
Possibly some Winterton or
other family descendant will someday feel urged to make such a compilation. What an interesting research activity it should
be! Consider a1so the many thousands
more names that will be added to William Hubbard Winterton’s progeny in the
next 100 years.
What an immense volume it
would take to contain the names of the posterity of William Hubbard Winterton’s
great grandchildren if it were to be written in 2063 A. D.! Perhaps some yet unborn family member will
undertake the project in another hundred years.
