Notes |
- !---Our Pioneer Heritage, vol 2, pg 100 by Kate B. Carter Rosetta Annie Chapman was born 5 September 1834 in Hubberdsville, New York, the first child of Welcome and Amelia Risely Chapman. Her parents joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints when she was an infant. They came to the Valley of the Great Salt Lake when Rosetta was fourteen years old in the fall of 1848. On September 20, 1850 when Rosetta was sixteen, she married Jerome B. Kempton, thirty years of age. He had been a member of the Nauvoo Legion and a Captain of one of the Companies who crossed the plains. When their fourth child was born they moved up Big Cottonwood Canyon where Jerome built a blacksmith shop for the accomadations for the teamsters hauling logs and timber for the Bingham mines. Because Jerome could understand the Indian language and had proved that he was an aable mediator between the Indians and white people, he was offered the position of Indian Agent at Fort Bridger. He moved his family there in 1859 and stayed for two or three years. Here Rosetta learned much from the Indians bout the use of herbs, plants, clay, roots and other natural remedies. While at Fort Bridger, Jerome was kept busy at his work of blacksmithing and gunsmithing for emigrants who passed through on their way to Utah and California. Once he received a barrel of sugar in exchange for work. He let the children eat all they wanted, not realizing the danger of making them ill. Hattie then four years of age, became very ill, and in spite of all her parents could do, grew steadily worse. Jerome prevailed upon the Indian Medicine Man to come and see the little girl. Within a short time the child recovered. Rosetta and Jerome were the parents of thirteen children. After her husbands death in 1899, she went to Idaho to live with her sons, where she passed away in 1914 at the age of eighty years. --Crystal Potter Lewis-- !---Our Pioneer Heritage, vol 2, pg 100 by Kate B.
