Justin Chauncey Wixom
Justin initially emigrated in the David Evans Company. Later, he also participated in the Daniel Thompson Company in 1866 as a returning missionary, traveling in his brother Solomon's wagon. (Solomon was a teamster.) Justin served as that company's Chaplain. Wixom left the Thompson company at O'Fallon's Bluff in central Nebraska, as he was hired on to drive an ox team to Salt Lake for Joseph Slagle. It is uncertain which company he finished the trip in.
