He was 96 years 9 months and 2 days old.  He embraced the gospel in 1830 and had seen all the persecutions of the saints being in Missouri, Kirtland, and Nauvoo and had remained fathful to the last.  He came to Utah and Manti in 1850 where he has lived ever since.  His children are Warren S. and George Snow, Martha Edmundson and Elizabeth Crawford all well known in this community and his grand children, great-grandchildren and great-great grandchildren are too numerous to mention running up into the hundreds.
