     Ann joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints with her entire family. They sailed from Liverpool, England on March 8, 1849 on the "James Hartly." They arrived at St. Louis on May 12, 1849. Here they lost her mother and sister Mary to cholera.
     They lived near St. Louis while her father worked in a coal mine. Here Ann met David Harris. They were married on August 23, 1851 at Gravis, St. Louis, Missouri. Their first daughter, Elizabeth Ann, was born in St. Louis.
     The family left on April 6, 1852 and arrived in Salt Lake Valley September 19, 1852. Ann and David stayed in Salt Lake fir a short time and it was here that Elizabeth became an invalid from being accidentally dropped, which injured her spine. Ann and David then moved to Palmyra, Utah where Ann's family had settled.
     David caught the gold fever and went to California where he corresponded for a short time and then nothing was heard from him again.
     One month after David left, Ann gave birth to Mary Jane. Ann waited three years and when David had not returned, she married William Warner as his second wife. They were parents of ten children.
     Ann was a faithful Relief Society teacher for many years and attended all her meetings. She was a devoted wife and mother. She cared for her invalid daughter Elizabeth as long as she was able and when William was stricken with a stroke in 1891, she never tired of caring for him until his death on January 28, 1894.

     MARY REYNOLDS WARNER

     BIRTHDATE: 17 Feb 1822

     PARENTS: John S. Reynolds

     SPOUSE: William Warner

     DEATH SP: 28 Jan 1894
     Spanish Fork, Utah Co., Utah

     Sarah Ann, 18 Aug 1858

     Mary was the seventh child of a family of nine children, four girls and five boys. Her parents were born in Gosberton, Lincolnshire, England; but the children were born in Surfleet, Lincoln, England and were also christened there.
     Mary Reynolds was born on February 17, 1822 at Surfleet, Lincoln, England. Surfleet was a villiage on the banks of a small river. It was near the ocean, and gates were placed in the streams to keep the tide from drawing all the water out as it receded. The fields were green and beautiful as in most parts on the towns in England.
     Mary married William Warner, May 18, 1848, Surfleet, Lincoln, England.
     Mary sailed on October 25, 1853, on the ship "Clara Wheeler" with William and their two children; James and Susanna, from Liverpool to New Orleans and by river barge to St. Louis, Missouri, arriving on December 10, 1853. Mary Elizabeth was born three months later. William drove a wagon West for Orson Hyde (William Fields Company, 1854); Mary stayed in St. Louis, Missouri.
     Mary worked hard cleaning rooms at a hotel, washing and ironing clothes for wealthy tows folks, making and selling lye soap, and weaving and selling rugs. It took her three years to earn enough money to buy a wagon and two oxen for the trip to Utah. A friend loaned her a third ox to change off with her team, with the agreement that she would return the ox or pay for it when he arrived in Utah. She, with her three young children, drove the wagon to Utah in a company just ahead of Johnston's Army, arriving in late September, 1857.
     After she joined her husband in Spanish Fork, Utah, the three oxen and wagon were traded for land. William had taken a plural wife, Ann David, which was difficult foe Mary to accept. When her friend arrived the next year and asked for his ox, Mary, who was known for her honesty, worked personally to earn the forty dollars needed to pay for the borrowed ox.
     Mary was very ambitious and industrious: carding wool, spinning yarn, making candles and soap, gleaning wheat, etc., but her greatest work was weaving rugs. At one time, she did nearly all the weaving in Spanish Fork.
     Though uneducated, she was known for her sharp wit and keen memory and kept all of her accounts in her mind and was seldom challenged on any item. The sound of the loom was music to her and she had it going constantly. A carpet was in the loom until she took sick and died.
