The horse put his head down and I could not get him off a walk. I was getting very cold, then I saw a large horse and rider coming toward me. It was father. he took me in to a neighbors and I got warm and then we started on again. Father lashed the horse I was riding, and I had a hard time clinging to the circingle.

  		William Crouch and Caroline Baker An Autobiography by William and a Biography of Caroline by her granddaughter Edith Crouch Casper. "In 1857 I (William) joined the police (Mestipolitan) very much against my wish. I would much rather have worked hard all the time. But at that time could get no work to do. And was getting a family around me. I got on well in the police, remained in the service nearly 17 years. Then left to come to Zion, bringing the remainder of our family with us. Three having been sent on in advance. We were generously assisted by a loan from the T. E. fund."
  		Mother, Caroline A. Stringham by Briant H. Stringham, a Son An Excerpt: "Mother once told me, when I was a small boy, that it had been prophesied that the time would come when a man would call his wife from London in the morning and tell her he would eat dinner with her that evening in New York. I thought then that this would never come true. Again she said that the time would come when a man would fly like a bird through the air with a little instrument he could put in his vest pocket. I won't deny that' not after the other prophecy having come true in a short sixty years."
  		Biography of Caroline Ann Crouch Stringham by her third daughter, Grace S. Colton An Excerpt: "[Caroline] worked in a cartage factory for two years.

  		Carrie Claire Stringham Hacking by Josephine H. Bird, her daughter An Excerpt: "I, Carrie Claire Stringham, was born 3 Nov. 1874. Whether by guess or scales, My mother said I weighed 14 lbs. at birth and was just skin and bones. Perhaps because of the caro she received at my birth, Mother lay in a coma for three days following, with my father despairing of her life. The November weather was cold, dark and stormy. The rain dripped through the mud roof and they had to hold pans over the bed to keep mother and me dry."
  		Gertrude Stringham by Ethelwynne Stringham Collett "Gertrude was the ninth child of Philip and Caroline Ann Crouch Stringham. She was born the 2nd day of June 1891, at Mill Ward, Uintah County. She died the 15th day of Sept. 1891 at the age of three months."
  		Some of the Early Experiences of My Parents by Carrie Claire Stringham Hacking Excerpts from Personal History of Carrie. "Many times I have heard father tell of the time that Captain Day and Pardon (Pard) Dodds rode into our dooryard and said, 'Stringham, you'll have to move off. This is government land. Make arrangements to leave in 10 days. We will pay you for your corrals and buildings.' My father calmly let them have their say. He went into the house and took from the cupboard shelf his deed to the land and showed it to the man, who rode away with the decision that Stringham was not to be scared off his land for their own selfish purposes."
  		A Tribute to my Father-in-Law, Philip Stringham by Ella Wimmer Stringham An Excerpt: "Grandfather's family, with others, lived in Ashley Valley during the winter of 1879, known as the "Hard Winter." The weather was so severe, it killed the livestock. They had no horses to use. They had their new farmland, which had to have water before they could grow crops. Grandfather (Philip Stringham), Robert Bodily and one other took their shovels and dug a canal that furnished the first irrigating stream of water. Each day they ate lunch of slap jacks made out of musty corn or wheat and dipped it in the cold water."
  		Rembrances of my Childhood by Ethelwynne (Winnie) Stringham Collett An Excerpt: "I remember picking up sage brush after father had plowed and grabbed it. Father would then burn it at night. Then we three children, Claire, Grace and I would have a good time dancing and laughing in the firelight. Father was so patient with us, for we were lazy and got tired picking up the brush."
  		Some of the Things I Remember about My Father Philip Stringham by Grace Stringham Colton An Excerpt: "I remember a sled he made for the family to ride in. It was made of large branches of trees. Two seats. One facing the horse and the other facing the back. We girls, Claire, Win and I, rode on the back seat; and more than once we were dumped in the snow as the horse would start quickly or stop suddenly."
  		History of Philip Stringham by Maysie Hall Sinfield, a Granddaughter An Excerpt: "The first Sunday School in the valley was held in his log home, with Philip as Superintendent. He was active in organizing the first Mutual Improvement Association and in all activities, he and Caroline took leading parts."
  		Appreciation of a Wonderful Father by Susan Stringham Shaffer An Excerpt: "I will never forget the way he used to sing to wake us up in the mornings. As he made the fire in the old cookstove, "Oh, What a Beautiful Morning," "Catch the Sunshine," and other Sunday School songs. The girls or mother would have the breakfast ready when all the chores were done. We would all be around the big table."

Death conquered.
  		Ethelwynne Stringham Collett Tells Her Own Story An excerpt: "When I was six years old, Father and Mother already being married in the Endowment House in Salt Lake City, heard they should be sealed to each other, so to the Logan Temple they went. They had five children, four girls and a boy. So we were sealed to our parents then. I remember going and staying with My Grandfather Crouch, who lived there and the dear second wife he lived with, gave us some sweet yellow apples. There were the best I ever tasted." - See more at: http://www.myfamilyonline.com/getperson.php?personID=I3&tree=T6#sthash.XgBaxPkQ.dpuf
