FamilySearch, 1873 submission by Thomas Clark, incl. birth info
PARENT CONNECTION: LDS sources list two possible sets of parents. William Thomas Micklewright and Mary Ann Frost, and John Micklewright and Mary. The John and Mary set are the parents of William Micklewright christened 20 Feb 1783, in Berkswell, Warwick, England. A descendant, Thomas Clark, had submitted William for ordinances in 1873 with the birthdate of 15 Feb 1783 in Warwick. This indicates that family records must have been used to determine his birth date, which suggests that John and Mary are indeed his correct parents.
DEATH: Death date located on US Government Passenger List GS 26816, New Orleans. Immigrated from Liverpool 23 Oct 1849, died enroute or in the port of New Orleans. PARENT CONNECTION: Sarah has not been located in the christening records at this point. Additional research may yeild parents and family extensions, if the birth date and place are accurate.
PARENT CONNECTION: Evidence of correct parentage comes from her husband's entry in Pioneers and Prominent Men of Utah, and the Grantsville Cemetery Index.
