It's amazing to me of what it takes for me to suddenly realize the importance of;
- Letters
- Picture
- Records of sorts
I have in my possession. These things were discovered in a trunk in an old family granary in Albion, Idaho. (This information comes from the Kidgell and Cahsmore Histories that was sent to me when I first started blogging about Charles and Sarah Ann.) I even think I have the old trunk where these precious thing were stored. Until very recently, I had no idea the signification of these items or the trunk that sits in my guest room today!
By doing extensive research on the Cashmore/Kidgell's I have come to realize how blessed I am to have these things in my very own possession.
Below is the latest record of importance. Old genealogy/temple records. The last twenty years of Sarah Ann's life she did 'genealogy'. She must have written a considerable amount of letters to relatives in England to get the information that is shown in the record below. (That would take twenty years!) I have many pages of this type of information. These pages have been torn out of a Temple Record book and I have no idea what has happened to the 'other pages'.
I had to include the four pictures of Sarah Ann in different stages of her life.
I am sure when I get to the other side I will recognize Sarah Ann Cashmore Kidgell.
Sarah Ann and my great grandmother Sarah Ann (Sadie) and her husband Edward Hepworth did most of the Proxy work in doing the ordinances.
