  • She cared for Horace Martin Alexander's young daughters. He was with the Mormon Battalion and their mother had died in Winter Quarters.  We are not certain of which of his children she cared for.  She married Horace in Salt Lake City on 15 February 1849.

    The inscription on her gravestone confirms the years of her birth and death and shows her name as "Catherine H. Houston."

Willard Richards Company (1848)
