Camp of Israel documents indicate he was a "boarder," traveling with the Rockwood/Horne family. It is uncertain if he was a member of the Church. His obituary confirms that he traveled west in 1849. Further research is needed to determine if he stopped in Utah for a time or if he continued directly on to California.
