born 1810-1820.
**Error on
Monument ~ Sarah G. and Margaret A. Fancher were twins, born in
1849. They both would have been the same age when they
were killed.

Mary Elizabeth, 5
Sarah Frances, 3
William Twitty, 9 mo.

At least one other survivor remained in Utah*
*Although there had been rumors, there has never been any evidence
found to support the story that one survivor
remained in Utah.
** These are the Fancher childrens' ages in 1857, at the time of the
Massacre. Kit Carson Fancher was probably 4 years old at that time, and
was 6 years old when he was returned to his family in Arkansas two years
later.
