The oldest child of this union was Addie who was four years and four days older that Vilate. The second child, Loenza, died when she was eight months old. The mid-wife who attended Vilate' s birth was an old lady by the name of Sister Whitehead. Also it is felt that Grandma Pond was also in attendance.
BAPTISM: Vilate was baptized on May 1, 1884 by C. H. Monson and confirmed the same day by W. K. Burnham. She was baptized in a stream of water that was about two or three miles north of her home. Her playmate and companion, Annie Orison, was baptized at the same time. A hole deep enough was located and the two girls were dressed to be baptized when they left home. Vilate went into the water first because Annie thought if Vilate could do it she could also. They were then wrapped up in quilts and taken home in our wet clothes. They were then taken to the fast meeting to be confirmed. Fast day was then held on the first Thursday of each month.
