    Benjamin Cleveland.  Copied 1991 by Evelyn Neville.  "Jacob and Rhoda Pearson
    joined the Latter-Day Saint Church and thus Ephraim John Pearson was baptized
    himself.  Jacob and Rhoda moved to Nauvoo with the Mormons and Jacob helped to
    build the Mormon Temple there.  He was a merchant and was one of the early
    settlers of Nauvoo.  The family was driven out of Nauvoo with the rest of the
    Mormon people and members migrated with the people of this church to Council
    Bluffs, Iowa.  There the colony was visited with an epidemic of cholera.  The
    disease was fatal to the parents and a young brother."  Taken from History of
    Ephraim John Pearson written by his daughter Phebe Elizabeth Pearson Robison.
