    • JESSE HUNTSMAN GILES
      FROM HIS DIARY

      Jesse Huntsman Giles was born Dec. 31, 1868, in Holden, Utah; son of Jo s eph Sinkler and Sarah Huntsman Giles. His father had been in Johnston’ s A rmy as a surgeon, and later joined the Mormon Church.
      The father, Joseph Sinkler Giles also taught school in Holden. Jesse we n t to the first grade of school in Holden. Later he came to Fillmore t o at tend the Millard Academy, taught by Alma and Joshua Greenwood, two g radua tes from the Brigham Young Academy.
      Since Jesse and his sister had to come to Fillmore to attend the Milla r d Academy, the father, Joseph Sinkler decided to move to Fillmore.
      The Giles family rented the home of William Goulter, which was just a li t tle over a block from the Abraham Carling family home. Jesse Giles an d Em eline Carling walked to school together and studied together, and so on th ey were deciding on a wedding day.
      Emeline was born September 15, 1870, the daughter of Abraham Freer an d A nn Ashman Carling. She and Jesse were married in the Manti Temple Aug us t 27, 1890, by Anthony H. Lund.
      Jesse and Emeline moved their few belongings to Oak Creek where Jesse b e gan teaching school the first week in September. It was lonely for Emel in e with Jesse in school all day, but she managed to get to Fillmore o n a f ew visits when some one from Oak Creek went to Fillmore to get a lo ad o f grain ground into flour. The first child of Jesse and Emeline wa s bor n Sept. 4, 1891, whom they named Hazel.
      When school closed they moved to Fillmore, and Jesse herded sheep for S a m Bennett of Holden. Jesse enjoyed herding sheep as he had plenty of ti m e to read and study. Jesse spent his extra time getting an education wh il e herding sheep. The sheep took very little of Jesse’s time except a t lam bing time when the bobcats ate the little lambs, unless the herde r kept c lose watch on the mother sheep and her lambs. Jesse always had s everal sh eep dogs, which were trained to kill bobcats.
      That fall, Jesse went to Leamington to teach school. Richard Russell al s o taught near Leamington therefore, he rode back and forth to and fro m Fi llmore with Jesse and Emeline. John Kelly, a very prominent educato r in M illard County was chairman of the Board of Education. On January 2 7, 1893 , a second daughter was born to Jesse and Emeline, and they name d her Ann ie Lee.
      Although Jesse was a schoolteacher most of the time. He was also an exc e llent mechanic and electrician. He installed the electrical wiring fo r ma ny of the homes in Fillmore. His son Herbert worked with him some o f th e time. Herbert was a mechanic, contractor and carpenter.
      Jesse taught school at Fillmore, Beaver, Minerville, and St. John in To o le County. He and Emeline were blessed with nine children. We have alre ad y named two of them; Hazel and Annie Lee both born in Fillmore. The ot he r seven are as follows: Maggie, born Dec. 9, 1895, in Fillmore: Herber t , born Feb. 23, 1898, in Fillmore; Valeta, born May 22, 1901, in Salin a , Utah; Robert Carling, born Feb. 23, 1903, in Fillmore ;
      Forest LeRoy, born July 7, 1906, in Fillmore, Utah; Roma, born June 29 , 1 909, Fillmore; Joseph, born July 21, 1911. Emeline died following th e bir th of her ninth baby, July 21, 1911 and is buried in the Fillmore c emeter y. Jesse was working in the Lehi Roller Mills when his wife Emelin e died . He immediately moved back to Fillmore, with his family, as he ha d live d here most of his life.
      In 1919 he moved to Ogden where he met and married Alice Rogers. He ser v ed a two-year mission for the Mormon Church from 1927-28 to the Easter n S tates.
