Book Description
John Alleman (1808-1883) was born in Pennsylvania. He married Christean Stentz (d.1886) in 1832. They joined the Mormon Church in 1838 and traveled to Missouri where they participated in the Mormon Exodus from Missouri in late 1838 and early 1839. They lived in Nauvoo and again took part in the great Mormon Exodus to Utah. They did not, however, arrive in Utah until 1852 because they had been assigned to stay in Iowa and farm so that food would be available for migrating Mormons. They eventually settled in Springville, Utah where they raised a family of nine children. Descendants live in Utah and other western states.

The Significance of the Frontier in American History
Author: Frederick Jackson Turner
Publisher: Penguin UK
ISBN: 014196331X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 92
Book Description
This hugely influential work marked a turning point in US history and culture, arguing that the nation’s expansion into the Great West was directly linked to its unique spirit: a rugged individualism forged at the juncture between civilization and wilderness, which – for better or worse – lies at the heart of American identity today. Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves – and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives – and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.

The Legacy of Conquest: The Unbroken Past of the American West
Author: Patricia Nelson Limerick
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393078809
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 404
Book Description
"Limerick is one of the most engaging historians writing today." --Richard White The "settling" of the American West has been perceived throughout the world as a series of quaint, violent, and romantic adventures. But in fact, Patricia Nelson Limerick argues, the West has a history grounded primarily in economic reality; in hardheaded questions of profit, loss, competition, and consolidation. Here she interprets the stories and the characters in a new way: the trappers, traders, Indians, farmers, oilmen, cowboys, and sheriffs of the Old West "meant business" in more ways than one, and their descendents mean business today.
