Murphy Family and the Donner Party

The ill-fated Donner Party of 1846 traveled west across America one year ahead of Brigham Young and the main Mormon exodus to Utah. Many church members attempted other enterprising ways to make their west. One was Lovinia Murphy and her children.

Lovinia hired on as laundress with the ill-fated Donner Party. She and two of her sons died with many others at Emmigrant Pass. They were survived by four daughters, one of whom is named Mary, the namesake of Marysville California. It is not known if any of the children maintained any affiliation with the church afterwards.
