  • Johanna and her son Joseph are listed in the 1860 Utah, Sanpete County Census with the surname of "Palmer," which is incorrect.  Their surname should read "Farmer."  

    In some early records her given name is shown as "Hannah."

    Her date of birth is confirmed by the Early Church Information File, which contains the date she gave at the time of her Patriarchal Blessing on 22 September 1861.
