  • His obituary states that he came to Utah in 1854.  A church ordinance was performed in Salt Lake City 4 February 1855, which was prior to the arrival of that season's emigration.  Further research is needed to determine the name of the pioneer company he traveled with.

    The 1856 Utah census show his name as "Aurelius Minor."  He initially lived in the Salt Lake City 17th Ward.  

    In 1868, he was a returning missionary from Europe.
