Family records of Roy Deverl Willey, Big Horn Stake, Wyoming, History of
Benjamin Cleveland. Copied 1991 by Evelyn Neville. "Jacob and Rhoda Pearson
joined the Latter-Day Saint Church and thus Ephraim John Pearson was baptized
himself. Jacob and Rhoda moved to Nauvoo with the Mormons and Jacob helped to
build the Mormon Temple there. He was a merchant and was one of the early
settlers of Nauvoo. The family was driven out of Nauvoo with the rest of the
Mormon people and members migrated with the people of this church to Council
Bluffs, Iowa. There the colony was visited with an epidemic of cholera. The
disease was fatal to the parents and a young brother." Taken from History of
Ephraim John Pearson written by his daughter Phebe Elizabeth Pearson Robison.
