  • He may have traveled with the 1852 Warren Snow Company.  The Immigration Location lists shows that he was assigned to settle in the south.  Further research is needed to confirm the name of the pioneer company he traveled to Utah with.

    The 1852 Bishopric minutes record his surname as "Cressman." Birth date confirmed by Utah Stake City Ward records at the time of a rebaptism on 26 November 1854. These records indicate his parents names were Elisha and Jemima Crismon.
