Mary Ann Gingell was disowned by her father when she and her husband and five of their children identified themselves with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. On 27th June 1857, aboard the 'Lucas', they set sail from Sydney for America and they disembarked in St. Pedro, California, on 13th October. Mary Ann gave birth to her tenth child on the high seas. The group of immigrants rested for a while in San Pedro then started their trek across the Western desert for Utah, arriving in Parowan late in the fall of 1857, and on to Paragonah. In this little community they endured all the hardships of pioneering, their last child was born. Sometime between 1861 and 1870 they moved to Evanston, Wyoming. Mary Ann Gingell died in Evanston.
