George Fraughton

First documentation to place the family in Utah is the rebaptism of parents, George and Henrietta in the Utah Stake City Branch on 26 November 1854. Birth dates are confirmed in this record at the time of their rebaptism.

The 1860 census shows the family living in Utah County. On this census is listed a son, 8 years old, born in New York, so the family would have arrived in the valley some time between 1852 and 1854. Further research is needed to narrow the year of their travel and identify the name of the company they traveled with.
