| Mary Anne Woodhams born 1822

Notes: Shortly after their marriage she and her husband moved to
Camden and later went to Sydney. Ten children were born to them there.
(but Bill Miles informs me that they had 7 children, of which 6 survived to
accompany them to the United States in 1857).
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.
