  • Evidence from emigration and church ordinance records prove that James and Sophia Porcher traveled to Utah in 1861 or 1862. They sailed to America in 1861, but the first documentation to place them in Utah is a church ordinance performed 27 Dec. 1862. Further research is needed to determine the year they came to Utah and the name of the company they traveled with.
