Martha Jane Coray - Teacher, Writer:
Martha Jane made tallow candles for the children to sell and extracted syrup from sugar beets to trade for a little bread* Once she gleaned grain from a kindly neighbor's field, bad it ground into ‘ ‘ course bran, ’ ’ and made it into bread* The children’s memories of those early years in Provo are of destitution and hunger,
Path Crosses with Mormons
Martha Jane had a large, healthy family of thirteen children, only one of whom died in infancy* Two of the children—Howard and Martha Jane—were born in Nauvoo*
It may have been as a result of her interest in preserving these ser¬ mons that she became involved in Lucy Mack Smith’s project of writing the story of her son, Joseph Smith* Lucy Mack Smith first ap¬ proached Martha Jane with the pro¬ ject, and she had to give up teaching school to undertake it* The project soon assumed such proportions that Howard was requested to drop the school and help her. After consulting Brigham Young, Howard and Mar¬ tha Jane labored together until the work was finished, near the close of 1845*
Visits to Nauvoo
She was possessed of in¬ domitable energy, and besides being well read and cultured, and possessing in all eminent degree many womanly traits, * her mind was clear and comprehensive, and she employed it to good advan¬ tage.
(continued on page 16) 7
Everything we know about her life indicates she was indeed a woman who did her own thinking, made her own decisions, and set her own high standards of excellence.
We can assume that the family frequently visited Nauvoo, then prospering under the influx of Mor¬ mon emigrants. They would have had numerous occasions to listen to Joseph Smith’s sermons, attend con¬ ferences and other public meetings, and visit their fellow members of the Church. It was in Nauvoo that Mar¬ tha Jane met Howard Coray, Joseph Smith's secretary. They were mar¬ ried on February 6, 1841 , at her parents ’ home in Bear Creek by Robert H* Thompson, the Churcn recorder. The young couple lived in the Thompson home in Nauvoo un¬ til they could find a home of their own,
George A* Smith, a member of the Quorum of the Twelve, was among these settlers, Martha Jane, then seventeen, heard him preach. She said he set forth the principles of the gospel in such a plain and un¬ mistakable manner as to convert her to the principles of Mormonism*
Two other important events oc¬ curred in Nauvoo. Martha jane
In September 1854 , Howard sold his house to Apostle Oison Hyde and moved to Tooele, where he bought a farm. The first year was reasonably successful, but the harsh alkaline soil made farming increas¬ ingly impractical*
by Jeffery Ogden Johnson City Creek Chapter
When Martha Jane Knowlton Coray died in 1881, the Sa/f Lake Herald said of her:
In October 1840, Howard open¬ ed a school in the Prophet’s office* In the spring of 184 1, he transferred his operations to a large room that Thompson had built on his house; and he expanded the school with the help of Martha Jane* Dur¬ ing the next few years, Howard was gone frequently from Nauvoo on missions and business; and Martha jane kept the school alone. This began her life-long teaching career*
By 1838, the family had moved again, this time to Hancock County, Illinois* That same winter, the Mor¬ mons were being driven out of Missouri* Their paths crossed, and the future changed for the entire Knowlton family* Mormon refugees from Missouri were settling Hancock County's struggling little communi¬ ty of Commerce,
Martha Jane Coray
The family arrived in the Salt Lake Valley in the Fall of 1850* Howard secured employment as a clerk in the general tithing office at the excellent salary of $1,000 a year. He built a home for less than $800*
Records Prophet’s Speeches
Recorder Joseph Smith’s Speeches
Like many of the early Mormons, Martha Jane had deep roots in New England—although her parents join¬ ed the westward movement. They settled first in Pennsylvania, then moved to Boone County, Kentucky, where Martha Jane was born on June 3, 1822, the daughter of Sidney Algernon and Harriet Burnham Knowlton. While she was still a child, the family moved to Ohio*
She was the first member of her family to be baptized—through a hole cut in the January ice of 1 840. By 1845, the Bear Creek Branch records also listed her parents and five of her brothers and sisters as members. (The last two members of the family were not yet eight.)
began recording speeches of Joseph Smith, which she carefully preserv¬ ed, George A. Smith said she had taken more pains to preserve the sayings of the Prophet and had ac¬ complished more in that direction than any other woman in the Church. Her daughter, Martha Jane Coray Lewis, later noted that Wilford Woodruff "consulted her notes when he was Church Historian, for items not to be ob¬ tained elsewhere*"
Buys Tooele Farm
The family moved to Provo in 1 857 in hopes of finding prosperity and became life-long residents of that town; but times were no easier* A biography of Martha Jane, written by her granddaughters, described their diet for that year as sego lilies, watercress, wild onions, rabbits, and whatever else they could find*

impressive ceremonies marked the completion of this handsome monument to Indian Trials in Utaht one of several dedicated this summer by SUP chapters*
Monument Dedicated
An impressive dedication program for a handsome new Indian Trails Monument took place at the summit of the North Ogden Canyon on July 21, 1984. About one hundred per¬ sons were present to see the follow¬ ing program carried out under ideal weather conditions*
A dedicatory prayer was offered by Bishop Frank Timbimboo of Brigham City, a member of the Northwest Shoshone Tribe* There¬ after the presentation of the monu¬ ment was made by William H.

The plaques and text of the imressive monument were explained y William W. Terry and a response was made by Mae Timbimboo Parry, historian for the Northwest Shoshone Tribe of Indians* This was followed by a response from David Morby of the Western Long Rifle Association and a black powder salute from several of the association members. Mr, Morby’s short talk and explanation of the dress of his associates held the interest of the crowd.
Three different and distinct types of cultures utilized the trails com¬ memorated with this event. They were (i) the Northwest Shoshone Indians, who occupied this area; (2) next came the mountain men into the region of the Indians: the trap¬ pers, the explorers, the pathfinders, the adventurers; (3) permanent set¬ tlers followed soon after the great majority of mountain men had vanished, (*The pioneers, unlike the other white men, built homes, founded communities which later became cities* This activity restricted the area in which the Indians could move about and live. The Indians’ tribal structure vanished* Some of the individuals, members of the Northwest Shoshone Tribe remained in the area and have brought into the culture of those who settled in their region valuable lessons which the white men should learn and ap¬ preciate* ** according to the monu¬ ment plaque.

The ceremonies began with the flag presentation by the Mount Ogden District Boy Scouts of America and the invocation as of¬ fered by Henry Matis, Board Member of Lake Bonneville Coun¬ cil, Boy Scouts of America and member of the Ogden Chapter of SUP*

The Salt Lake City Chapter of the Sons of the Utah Pioneers are mar¬ ching forward. Three great events have received noteworthy attention just recently,, though summer time activities often decline.
The road was about 42 miles long. It was a toll road, because of the hard work that it took to clear the rough terrain. From today's standards this was really a bargain for instance a conveyance drawn by one animal was .50 cents; drawn by 2 animals, .75 cents; 10 cents for additional pack or saddle; 5 cents for each loose stock and only 1 cent for each sheep.

When Martha Jane's daughter, Harriet, died in childbirth in June 1872, she wrote again to Brigham Young, recommending there be bet¬ ter training for midwives. It was about this time that Brigham Young encouraged Romania Bunnell Pratt to go East to study medicine. Soon, Ellis Shipp and others followed her. In the fall of 1880, Martha Jane fell seriously ill. Howard’s record notes that she had been afflicted several years with a cough, which had now become so bad, that I thought it best to come to Pro¬ vo [from Mona], where I could take better care of her, than was possible on the farm in Juab Co.; but, with all that care and medicine could do, she left us—she lingered till December 14th, 1881, when her spirit took its flight. The day before her death, charac¬ teristically, she took care of her last piece of business, signing a paper for Brigham Young Academy, the organization that had absorbed so much of her energy during the last six years of her life.
