      Elizabeth was the seventh child of Albert and Ada Winchell Clement's nine children.  Several years after her birth, they became converted to the LDS Church by Sidney Rigdon.  The family moved to Kirtland, Ohio.  Later they moved to Nauvoo, Illinois.  They became neighbors to the Prophet Joseph Smith and family.  Her mother washed and ironed for Joseph and Emma's family.  Elizabeth and her brother, James, would deliver the laundry in a wagon together with popcorn and apples.  Elizabeth was impressed with his kind consideration and friendliness with children.  When Elizabeth was a little past sixteen years of age, she crossed the plains in the Warren Snow Wagon Company.  She walked most of the way and arrived in Salt Lake City in September of 1852.
      Even though Elizabeth had met a young man she admired, her mother insisted that she marry Levi Newell Kendall.  He had married her sister, Eliza, four years before.  They were married in Salt Lake City.  She had two children before they were expected to evacuate to southern parts of Utah because the Johnston Army was approaching their territory.  She learned how to become a mid-wife and delivered hundreds of babies.  She gave birth to twelve children and raised ten of them to adulthood. She had unusual energy, foresight, and industry with kind consideration for those in need.  She became a good nurse and helped others in all kinds of sickness.  She and Levi went to Idaho Falls where she did the cooking for one of the camps for the Oregon Short Line Railroad.  She also managed to buy and sell chickens, turkeys, ducks and geese.  She raised them and then sold them to the market.  She also had a business where she wove rag rugs and carpets on her loom.
      Her marriage was not a happy one.  They were not compatible and she was given a divorce in 1890.  She had a little business with King Dish Company selling unusual and pretty dishes.  She loved to piece many quilts.  She was highly honored, respected, and loved by all who knew her.

Ada Clements was born 29 Jan 1839 at Far West, Caldwell, Missouri, to Albert Clements and Ada Winchell.
      Ada was 5 years of age when the Prophet and his brother were killed.  Her mother had been to the meeting when the mantle of the Prophet fell upon Brigham Young.  Her father had been out of town at the time, and when he returned he decided to follow Sidney Rigdon, the man who had converted him.  This caused her parents to separate and eventually divorce.
      Three of the girls, namely, Lucy 22, Eliza 13, Elizabeth 11, and Ada 8, left Winter Quarters with the Jedediah Grant Company and arrived in the Salt Lake Valley 2 Oct 1847.
      While living in Grantsville, Utah, Ada met Richard Lowe and they were married 1 May 1855.  They lived in Brigham City for awhile then moved to Springville, Utah.  Richard built a one-room log house and they were very happy.  Ada was quite an herb doctor.  She always had all kinds of herbs gathered and dried ready for use.  Many times she would treat neighbors and sick children with her medicines.
      Ada was also a true Latter-day Saint.  She believed strongly in the payment of tithes.  She told the Church leaders that she would be willing to let the Lord have her 10th child if He wanted it.  So when her 10th child was born, she gave her own life and also the baby's.  She died 15 Oct 1877 in Springville.  Her husband Richard, died 26 Dec 1899, also in Springville, Utah.
