Jesse Crookston
Jesse initially traveled to the Valley with his parents and siblings in 1855. However, he is seen on the plains again in 1866, working as a teamster for Chipman's out-and-back company from the American Fork Ward.
More research is needed concerning Jesse's date of birth. Secondary and indirect sources state and imply that Jesse was born either in June 1844 or June 1845.
