    • Nauvoo Temple Endowment Register 1845-46

      Adeline Brooks came to Utah 2 October 1847 in the Charles C. Rich pione e r company. She was 34 at departure.

      In an account by Drusilla Hendricks during great hardship, she says th a t Adeline Brooks saved her own rations for the Hendricks family an d t h e n brought these rations to the Hendricks family saying, "Here, ha ve s omething good."

      Our Pioneer Heritage. Carter, Kate. 1958 Volume: 20 Page: 267



      Adeline was only a fraction over five feet tall, and really no match phy s ically, but with the spiritual strength with which these hardy pioneer s w ere blessed. She was always neat and clean. She wore a black dress wi t h a clean white collar on it and her hair was brushed and arranged nice ly . Adeline lived the last seventeen years with her son, Frank Andrus Be nso n and his family.
