I LOVE PIONEER DAYS!


Ulysses S. Cline


Born – Bainbridge – Cerulean, Kentucky 06 Dec 1863

Joined the church in 1888 at the age of 25 and because an anti-Mormon mob came for him because of his recent membership in the church – he sold his horse and left Kentucky and traveled to Utah on the train.

He went to Grantsville to stay with Elder Shipp, the missionary who had converted him. This was late summer of 1888.

In April of 1893 Ulysses and Angelia Barrus attended the dedication of the Salt Lake Temple. – Ulysses asked Angelia to marry him that day! They were married on the 27 July 1893 in the Salt Lake Temple.

There children are:

In 1904 Ulysses went on a mission to Kentucky. He wanted to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with some of his Cline relatives. Some of the men in the “mobs” that had run him out of Kentucky were now listening to him preach the gospel!

In the Spring of 1912 Ulysses and Angelia with their children traveled to Afton, Wyoming. They homesteaded on Bitter Creek and after five years sold their homestead and bought a farm in Osmond.

In 1922 Ulysses found employment in Salt Lake City and they moved back to Utah.

Ulysses found so much joy working and going to the Temple.
