We don't know just when John Elmer moved from Vermont to Indiana, but records show that his wife, Sarah died there in 1838.
It seems John Elmer,his sons and their families came from Indiana to Adams County Illinois, and from there to Council Bluffs, Iowa, the gathering place of the Mormon Saints who had been driven out of Nauvoo, Illinois and the surrounding area.
Finally in 1852 John his sons, William, Hyrum, and Ira Bartlett with their families were ready to leave with the Uriah Curtis Company for the great Salt Lake Valley. They left Council Bluffs in June and arrived in Utah, October 1, 1852. By this time John was 16 Years old.
The Elmers moved to Payson (we don't know just where). At the DUP (Daughters of the Utah Pioneers) building there is a history of John Elmer which gives some important facts. John Elmer married his second wife, a widow, Harriet Gould Bronson, the widow of Seymore Bronson. (NOTE: We don't know whether he married her before he crossed the plains or after he reached Payson). However he did have two children by Harriet. Their names Lercrialea (sp) and Jerusha.
It's said that John Elmer was a large well built man. That he had a pleasant personality, and had a keen sense of humor. He was honest and upright in his dealings with his fellow man, consequently he had a host of friends where ever he went.
In his native state of Vermont, he was one of the best shingle makers in his area. He was also a shoe maker by trade. After coming to Utah he followed these two professions. He was also a farmer in Payson.
John Elmer lived a long and useful life and died at the ripe old age of 94 years in Payson, Utah on 11 February 1871. He was laid to rest in the cemetery in the little town that he helped to pioneer.
His children by his wife Sarah, married the following companions:
Tryphena married John Chamberlain Johnson
Cynthia married James Sweat
Samuel Fifield married Sarah Bennett
Wealthy married David Elmer
John married Lucy Rich
Sally married John Loveless
Hyrum King married Lucina Elmer
William married Hannah Pauline Child
Ira Bartlett married 1st Eveline Elizabeth Wright 2nd Sarah Selina Lecht.
