"SEVENTY-SECOND COMPANY, -- Windermere, 477 souls. The ship Windermere, Captain Fairfield, sailed from Liverpool, England, bound for New Orleans, on the 22nd of February, 1854, with four hundred and seventy-seven Saints on board, the company being in charge of Elder Daniel Garn. Included in the company were seven ex-presidents of conferences, namely: Abraham Marchant, Robert Menzies, Job Smith, John T. Hardy, John A Albiston, J. V. Long and Graham Douglas. The Windermere arrived at New Orleans April 23rd. During the voyage contrary winds were encountered, arising at times to heavy gales; but at the end of five weeks a favorable winds set in, and the ship made one thousand miles in four days. After fifteen days sailing from Liverpool, the smallpox broke out on board and spread rapidly as the vessel approached the tropics, until 37 passengers and two of the crew were attacked but at this crisis the malady was suddenly checked in answer to prayer. Six marriages were solemnized on board, and six births and ten deaths occurred. On the morning after arriving at New Orleans, eleven persons suffering with the small-pox were sent to the Luzenburg Hospital, agreeable to order from the health officers at the port; and Elder Long and five others were selected to remain at New Orleans to attend to the sick until they were sufficiently recovered to go forward. The rest of the company continued the journey from New Orleans April 27th, on board a steamboat, and arrived in St. Louis a few days later, from whence the journey was subsequently continued to Kansas City. (Millennial Star, Vol: XVI, pp.140, 297, 345, 477.)"
"Wed. 22. [Feb. 1854] -- The ship Windermere sailed from Liverpool, England, with 484 Saints, under Daniel Garn's direction; it arrived at New Orleans April 23rd. Many died on board from the small pox."

Photos |
| Is this Phoebe Oxenbold Davis and her four children? This is an ambrotype, a method used in photography in the 1840s and 1850s. My mother, Dorothy Penrose Woodland, had this with her family photos. The only family that that fits the time period and the children is Phoebe and her four older children. Possibly the photography was taken around 1850. The children would be Elija Walter Oxenbold Davis, Frederick William Davis, John Edward Davis and Sylvia Jane Davis. |
