I just found a journal of the emigration company that brought my dad’s parents to the town I grew up in! Their (the wagon company’s) traveling capital was $73.45, for a journey that lasted from June 28 to September 4 1863. That would have been from Omaha (Winter Quarters) Nebraska Territory, and some in that company were later sent south to settle my hometown of Payson Utah.
Fascinating!
I went back to bed after Mass, and now I’m feeling reasonably functional just as you’re done for the day, I expect.
