More About AGATHA ANN WOOLSEY: Photo: Photo: Wilford Whitaker writes, "Here is a photo that I thought was a photo of Abigail Schaeffer Woolsey, wife of Joseph Woolsey. It was on an old tin-type and McKnight of CA has almost convinced me that tin-type (1856) was too late to be of Abigail. So, it must be a photo of Abigail Schaeffer's daughter Aggatha Woolsey, wife of John D. Lee, but she must have looked much like her mother. Here is a photo of a much younger Aggatha. - WWW Notes Burial: June 05, 1866, UT - New Harmony, Washington, Utah Family Researcher: Carolyn Gibbons Source of information: www.wadhome.org/lee/ At the above website was recorded the following: During his last statement he remained calm; he spoke clearly; he asked only that his executioners center his heart and not mutilate his body. Five simultaneous shots rang out. He fell back into the coffin upon which he sat and died without a struggle. He was buried in the cemetery at Panguitch where a simple shaft marked his grave. Today his published diaries have brought him before the world in his true light as a man of great ability and integrity, and above all, a man of deep and true loyalty to his Church. Perhaps others of his records may be found in future years to shed light upon the tragic period which is still clouded, but it is likely that, if found, those will only increase the stature of the man who now stands as a lonely, tragic figure, one of the great among the builders of the western empire." Following message from Valerie: See a picture of this wonderful place at http://www.delange.org/LeesFerry/LeesFerry.htm. Lee's Ferry is recognized as being the beginning of the Grand Canyon. All mileages along the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon are based on Mile 0 at Lee's Ferry. Another photo of John D. Lee is at this website http://www.kaibab.org/images/lee.htm. Lee's Ferry is named for John D. Lee, who was instructed by Brigham Young, the founder of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, to build a ferry across the Colorado River above the Grand Canyon. Lee moved part of his family (two of his nineteen wifes and a number of children) to the area in 1871 and in the year following began construction of the ferry. The ferry operated until 1928, when a bridge was finally constructed across the Colorado River at Marble Canyon. Children of AGATHA WOOLSEY and JOHN LEE are:
