    • EDWARD WILLIAM TALBOT
      (Uncle “Ted”)

      Edward William Talbot was born 12 Jan 1851, at Volver Fountain, Cradoc k D istrict, South Africa, son of Henry and Ruth Sweetnam Talbot, who a t th e time owned a farm there. The family later lived, first at Whittles ea, 2 0 miles south of Queenstown, then at “Wellington”, a huge estate o n the T horn River, south of Cathcart, granted to his father in 1853 fo r service s against the Kaffirs in the so called Cattle Killing Delusion . After “We llington” was sold in 1859, he lived with the family for ove r a year at P ort Elizabeth, Algoa Bay, awaiting transportation to Americ a. He may hav e received his first formal schooling there.

      They took passage 28 Feb 1861, on the sailship, “Race Horse”, landed a t E ast Boston 20 Apr 1861, and Preceded by cattle train by way of Chicag o, t o the Missouri River and up the river to Florence, Nebraska. At Flor enc e they joined the Homer Duncan company in which they crossed the plai ns , arriving at Salt Lake City, Utah, 28 Sep 1861. Ted was then almost e lev en years old.

      After spending the winter in Salt Lake City, the family moved in the spr i ng to Kaysville, Utah, where they settled permanently, buying a 40 acr e f arm from Lou Whitesides.

      There at “Five Points”, at the little one room red brick schoolhouse, sa i d by some to have been built by his father, he may have graduated fro m th e fourth grade, then the highest possible achievement.

      He was baptized 19 Oct 1861 by William Matthews and confirmed 20 Oct 18 6 1 by R. Hyde.

      On 9 Dec 1880, he was married to his childhood sweetheart, Phenrietta Jo s ephine Partridge, by Elder Hyrum Bennett, at Meadow, Millard, Utah. Th e y were later endowed and sealed in the Endowment House, 28 Apr 1881, b y P resident Daniel H. Wells. They were the parents of nine children.

      Ted and his brother, Stephen Barton, were great pals and kept near one a n other all of their lives, farming or working with teams in various plac e s in Utah and Idaho, seemingly always looking for something better, bu t a ctually tied down to a life of poverty by the burden of large familie s.

      Uncle Ted lived quite a while in the old log house after Ruth, his mothe r , moved into a new one. His children and others who came visiting woul d s ometimes get into fights during their games, running in and out amon g th e buildings and down on the creek bottom. Aunt “Phen” used to tell t he ki ds, her own or the others, whenever she was angry with them: “If yo u don’ t behave yourselves, I’ll pound all the damned dog water out of yo u!” Th e children also used to blow up the bladders of slaughtered animal s, pig s and cattle, and use them as balloons or balls to kick around. Th ey wer e taught to believe, by the grown ups, that pollywogs were sucke d up int o the clouds and fell with the rain. This explained the numerou s toads wh ich sometimes would be seen hopping every where after a big st orm.

      He and his wife, “Phen” were sweethearts all their lives, and he was des o lated by her death 11 Dec 1931. He followed her in death, 9 Nov 1933, p as sing away at Pocatello, Idaho. He was buried at Blackfoot, Idaho, 14 N o v 1933.
