She was married in Mentor, Ohio, to Lemon Bronson. Four of their children were born in Ohio and four were born in Michigan. A baptism was to be held for converts of the Church, and the new converts walked through snow for about a mile. They then had to cut a hole in a foot thick ice for the baptisms to take place. Lucy Bronson was to be baptized but she was very sick at the time. She participated in the baptism and suffered no ill affects from this experience. Lucy, however, died while the family was en route to Council Bluffs, Iowa. The family was spending the winter of 1846-47 at Poncho, Nebraska, with the Saints. Due to the deprivations and lack of proper food, Lucy Bronson died during that winter, as did many, other saints. Her name is on a monument at that local cemetery. Lucy had died about Feb 1847 near Winter Quarters. Her husband and family continued on with the group to Utah. They arrived in Salt Lake City by wagon about 1 Oct, 1847. They traveled with Capt. Edward H Hunter's Company (2nd hundred), with Capt Jacob Foutz (2nd fifty), Capt. Vincent Shurtlef's (3rd ten) company number 4. Source: Pioneer Women of Faith and Fortitude, vol.

History of Lorinda Elizabeth Bronson

LORENDA ELIZABETH BRONSON THOMPSON BIRTHDATE: 22 Dec 1836 Brownstown, Wayne, Michigan DEATH: 21 Jun 1907 Scipio, Millard Co., Utah PARENTS: Lemon Bronson, Lucy Brass PIONEER: 29 Sep 1847 Edward Hunter Wagon Co. SPOUSE: Daniel Thompson MARRIED: 4 May 1854 Scipio, Millard Co., Utah DEATH SP: 29 Jul 1912 Scipio, Millard Co., Utah CHILDREN: Daniel Edwin, 1 Jun 1855 Wilmer Donrel, 15 Apr 1857 Henry Bronson, 6 Mar 1859 Lorenda De1cena, 1 May 1861 William Riley, 26 Feb 1863 Leman, 9 Jul 1865 Rosabelle, 24 Jul 1867 Emily, 20 Nov 1869 Martha Ann, 9 Oct 1871 Frances Marion, 21 Sep 1873 (male) Raymond, 31 Dec 1875 Elizabeth, 1 Jul 1879 Lorenda Elizabeth was born on December 22, 1836 in Brownstown, Wayne County, Michigan. Her family joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1842 when she was about five years old. In 1845, the family moved to Nauvoo to be with the Saints. In 1846, her father was one of the first to join the traveling Saints and, with his family, started the trek west. Lorenda's mother, Lucy Brass Bronson, died at Winter Quarters on February 7, 1847 but her father, Lemon, continued on with Lorenda and her sister and brother, Martha and Wilmer. They left Winter Quarters, Nebraska on June 17, 1847 in the second company of 100, lead by Captain Edward Hunter and arrived in the valley on September 29, 1847 bringing the population to about 1,000. Her sister, Martha, drove on the ox teams. Many were the hardships that first year and a half. Food was scarce and they were often hungry. Later, Lemon built a house and planted crops. Lorenda told her children how happy they were when their grain began to grow and they felt that no more would they suffer hunger as there was prospects of an abundant harvest. Then came the crickets. Like a moving mass, they covered the field stripping the stalks and leaving desolation in their path. For days they fought them with sticks, beating and killing hundreds but, for everyone killed, it seemed a dozen came in its place. Sometimes with only a half slice of bread to eat, Lorenda would fight the pests until exhausted. One morning, they looked up to see the sky black with seagulls swooping down on the fields. They were in despair, thinking all was lost, but instead of eating the grain as they expected them to do, they devoured that army of crickets and saved the crops. They knew this was a blessing from the Lord to save them from starvation. In about 1852, she moved with her father to Fillmore, Utah where they lived until 1854 when Lemon was called on a mission to Michigan where he died. At Fillmore, Lorenda met Daniel Thompson and they were married on May 4, 1854 in Scipio, Millard County, Utah when she was only seventeen years of age. On October 9, 1855, they made the trip to Salt Lake City to the Endowment House to have their marriage solemnized for eternity. Lorenda was very proud of her first home, a little log room with a bed made of posts stuck in the wall and supported at the front with posts. Her early married life was devoted to raising her family more than to public service but, after moving to Scipio, in 1867, when Daniel was ca1led by President Brigham Young to preside as Bishop, she felt it her duty to help in building up the ward. In 1868, Daniel built two large log rooms in the center of town. It seemed a palace to them. President Brigham Young traveled from Salt Lake to St. George every year with a large company to look after the affairs of the church and instruct the Saints. He and his immediate company did not wish to be separated so he asked Daniel to build another room for their convenience. He wanted to help pay for it out of church funds but Daniel would not allow him to do this. It was, however, known from then on as "Brigham's Room." It was Lorenda's task to scrub and clean the house and cook and arrange affairs to do honor to their very distinguished guests. This was not unusual for her because their home was always filled with friends and strangers. Then, when her son Wilmer's wife died, she took his three children. The baby died at the age of eleven months, but she raised the others from two and four years of age to adulthood. According to her daughter, Elizabeth, "She was a wonderful disciplinarian, very firm, at the same time generous and thoughtful of our pleasures. If Father was ever displeased with our actions, we were sent to Mother for corrections." In 1870, Daniel organized the Relief Society and Lorenda was called to act in the Presidency. She served faithfully for thirteen years and was then called to the Stake Relief Society Presidency, June 6, 1883. After twenty-one years of service in the Stake, Lorenda was released on 28 November 1904. The same year, she was called to act as President of the Mutual in the Scipio Ward, a position she held until her death. Her last meeting was on May 28, 1907 and she passed away on June 21, 1907 in Scipio, Millard County, Utah where she is buried. Source: Pioneer Women of Faith and Fortitude, vol.

History of Rosabelle Thompson Robins
Contributed By michelledickson1 · 7 May 2013

History of Rosabelle Thompson Robins I was born in Fillmore, Millard County, Utah July 24 1867. Moved to Scipio when 6 months old with my parents Daniel Thompson and Lorenda Elizabeth Brunson Thompson. My father was to be Bishop. I could sing and recite at the age of three. I sang from a table in a Bowery at the 4th and 24th of July celebration. I was taught the gospel and at six knelt at my mother’s knee. I was baptized September 9, 1882 by Thomas Memmott and confirmed by George Hawley. At the age of twelve we established a club and sewed carpet rags and crochet work. Our Relief Society was organized July 27th 1870 and we wanted to be like Relief Society mothers. On November 30, 1880 my father and ladies from Salt Lake City organized the YLMIA. I was chosen secretary of Primary in 1882, Sunday School teacher in 1884, November 28 1882 choir leader of YLMIA on November 16th 1886 1st counselor to Susan Yates, November 1st 1887 1st counselor to Emily L. Thompson. Oct 16, 1888 President of YLMIA, November 6, 1889 again selected President. I was married January 19th 1890 to Merien Richard Robins, endowed August 28, 1912 in Manti Temple, resigned from Mutual 1890, my first baby born December 21st 1890. My husband was ranch-man of a ranch owned by J. C. Campbell of Salt Lake City. The ranch was in Geyser Nevada. I went out to see my husband and a posse of men rode up to our gate and asked for my husband who was two miles away in a field. They said desperadoes had pilfered other ranches and taken meat and escaped to the hills. They had run on to a man and shot him and took his horse, saddle, bridle and spurs and left him to die. He arose and walked to a ranch where he received help. The desperadoes had visited our ranch but they were never caught. In the spring of 1889 we laid plans for our new home. In august 1901 we moved into the new home. I had saved the money he worked for and we paid for it all. For eight years I had the responsibility of home and children. My health was poor so I was baptized in the Manti Temple. I was immediately better. In my Patriarchal blessing given by John Ashman in 1898 he promised I should live to see my children’s children and their children and dandle them on my knee. I took up my church duties again, second counselor to Visa Martin in Primary January 8, 1892, February 6th 1904. First counselor to Elizabeth Peterson, second counselor to Emma Wright in the Stake and had pleasure of reporting conference where Joseph F. Smith was in attendance. My father was very proud of me he said. At the death of Sister Wright I was released, I was forty-seven when my last baby was born. He died at that time. In October 20, 1928 I was asked to be teacher in the Primary. I worked ten years in that capacity and as chorister. My throat became affected and when I couldn’t sing, I resigned. My work in Relief Society started August 19, 1891 as treasurer, teacher and chorister. May 19?1 I gleaned in the fields to help the Relief Society. The straws saved were woven into hats by my sister and we wore them. I learned to card the wool for batts to put into our quilts. I worked in the store for two years. My father was Stake President during this time. I worked in the store for Andreas Peterson and shared my money with my sisters who were in High School. I always paid my tithing. On celebrations and recreation days I always took my chance of winning the Ladies Boot race even until I was forty-four when I fell and dared not try again. I loved dancing and participate once in a while now. (August 18, 1938.) I am still a teacher in Relief Society and enjoy my work very much. I have seven children living and lost my baby boy at birth. They have all been married in the temple. My husband died September 2nd 1937. I am living alone. I visit my children and feel they are my greatest joy. They are all good and kind to me and my life is made happy with their association. I am seventy-one years old. Have done temple work for twenty-two people (nineteen in Manti, 4 in Salt Lake and some in St. George.) I have loved my Relief Society magazine and have taken it for years.
