    Life Sketch: "...Stephen Markham, was born 9 February, 1800, in Genesee
    Valley, the town of Rush now called Avon, New York. He was baptized
    into the Latter-Day Saints Church in July 1837 in Chester, Ohio, by Elder
    Abel Lamb. He played an important part in the building of the City of
    Nauvoo. He was elected Lieutenant Colonel of the first regiment, first
    cohort of the Nauvoo Legion. He was a very good and faithful friend to the
    Prophet Joseph Smith and acted as a body guard to him through all his
    troubles with the mobs. Stephen Markham came to Utah with Brigham
    Young and was Colonel of the whole pioneer company that arrived on July
    23, 1847, of which he acted as scout along the way.
    Grandfather (Stephen Markham) was one of the first to see the Great
    Salt Lake Valley and to hear President Young say, "It is enough, this is
    the place." Three weeks after his arrival, he went back to Nauvoo to help
    other companies to Utah. He continued in this work for two years.
    ! Eliza R. Snow wrote the song "O My Father" in her meagerly furnished
    low-roofed room in the home of Stephen Markham in Nauvoo. It was
    penned on a wooden chest which was the only table her room afforded.
    ! In the fall of 1851, Stephen Markham and his family (at this point it
    consisted of his wife Mary Curtis Houghton Markham, her son, Edgar
    Houghton, and her two nieces) settled in Palmyra (possibly now called
    Leland, UT) and in March 1852 the first Church organization was made
    with him as President. Grandfather's home was always open to the
    immigrants and because of his generous hospitality his house was full
    all the time. A few of the ones who made their home with him are John
    Hayes, Thomas D. Evans and his wife, Priscilla.
    ! In 1856, when the Saints were advised to move to the present site of
    Spanish Fork, Stephen Markham took a section of land just west of
    Spanish Fork and it was there that he made his home until his death."

    Life Sketch: (William) Don (Carlos) Markham's mother, Mary Curtis
    Houghton Markham, was born in Highland, Oakland, Michigan. She was the
    daughter of Jeremiah Curtis and Ruthy Stratton. She marr5ied Oren
    Houghton when she was 14 years old and to them was born one son,
    Edgar. Her husband died, and in 1850, Mary with her son and her sister's
    two children, immigrated to Utah in one of Grandfather's (Stephen
    Markham) companies. They left Nauvoo in June, 1850. She worked hard
    for four long months driving a span of mules, a yoke of cows, and a yoke
    of heifers across the dreary plains. The weary company arrived in Salt
    Lake on 4 October, 1850. She was married to Grandfather (Stephen
    Markham) when she was 18 and he was 50 years old, and they settled in
    Palmyra (may now be Leland, UT) in 1851.

    Baptized into LDS Church as a child probably about 1840; baptism date is for a rebaptism.
