• Notes

  Ann Alice Gheen Kimball was born December 20, 1827, in Pennsylvania. A Quaker girl, reared in the staid and secluded confines of Chester County, Pennsylvania, she, with her parents and other Quakers joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1840 and moved to Nauvoo in company with Bishop Edward Hunter. Here the family prospered and became closely associated with the families of the Prophet Joseph Smith, Hyrum Smith and their friends, Brigham Young and Heber C. Kimball. Ann Alice was afflicted with ague in Nauvoo and was blessed and healed under the hands of Elder Heber C. Kimball. September 10, 1844, she was united to him in marriage, the ceremony being performed by Brigham Young. Ann Alice was tall, of dark complexion with black, silken hair, very dark eyes and was intensely spiritual in her nature. She appeared happier at home than abroad, unless she could administer help and comfort to her friends, and to those who were in need. She was the mother of five children, Samuel H., married Orandine Pratt; Daniel H., born February 8, 1856, married Joan Okleberry; Alice, married Joseph F. Smith; Andrew and Sarah. The following obituary was taken from the Women's Exponent of October 15, 1879: Wives of Mr. Kimball—Taken in 1888 Died in the Nineteenth Ward of this city October 12, 1879, of bronchitis, Ann A. Gheen Kimball, wife of the late Heber C. Kimball and daughter of William A. and Esther A. Gheen, born in Ucand, Chester County, Pennsylvania, December 20, 1827. Sister Ann was a faithful member of the Church, true to her integrity, honorable and upright through all her life, and patient in affliction. She has been connected with the Church from her youth, and has passed through many severe trials for the gospel's sake. She has gone to join her companion and friends behind the veil. Ann Gheen Kimball was buried in the Kimball-Whitney Cemetery. "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord."
