• Evidence from census and genealogical records proves that the Wakeham family traveled to Utah in 1851.  They appear on the 1850 Missouri census.  The first documentation to place them in Utah is the death of Abigail in April 1852, which was prior to the arrival of that season's emigration.  Further research is needed to determine the name of the company they traveled to Utah with.

  His death date is confirmed by his death certificate.
