  • James, his wife Isabella, children Robert, Christina and David sailed to America in 1848 on the ship Carnatic.  His wife Isabella died 1850 in Missouri.

    James initially traveled to the valley with his family in 1851. Several years later, he crossed the plains again with his son, David Dunn Bulloch, with the Samuel White out-and-back company. He may have been working as a teamster, as his son was, but he was transporting back some of the first large farm equipment to be used in the Cedar City area.
