Came to Utah in 1850, in Stephen Markham's company. Listed both as

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.
