• The Webster family sailed to America in 1855 on the ship Siddons.

  Page 29 of the Rosel Hyde, notebook, 1863 shows the name of an individual by the name of "George Webster."  The 1863 Rosel Hyde pioneer company was an out-and-back company and many teamsters went east with this company to qssist saints who were coming to Utah.  George initially came to Utah in 1855 with the Milo Andrus pioneer company, and he likely joined the 1863 Rosel Hyde company to assist others who were headed west.   The teamsters were from the Bountiful, Kaysville, and Layton wards in Utah, and in 1863 George was living in Kaysville, Utah.
