Her father was called on a mission to Southern Utah among the Indians, and before leaving, was given a blessing by President Brigham Young, that not one hair on his head would be harmed nor any harm would come to his wife and children. This blessing was fulfilled to the letter, although they did have many terrible experiences with the Indians. During a drunken spree some of them shot and killed the family's best cow and chopped up all the gardens.
When this mission ended, the family moved to Ferron, Utah. Caroline attended school but was very unhappy. She was called "Squaw girl" because she went to school barefoot. She worked for a kind man and his wife; they bought Caroline her first pair of shoes. Caroline lived with these people five years and completed the fifth grade. She learned the value of being honest.
Caroline was a good wife and mother. She stood by Robert in everything he did, in work, church or play. She had great faith and a strong testimony of the gospel, was active in the church and community; a friend to everyone. Her home always had room for one more. She was the mother of twelve living children and one stillborn. (taken from the Diary of Caroline Almina Behunin Redford)
Robert Dinsdale and Caroline Almina Behunin had the following children:
Myrtle May, James William, Jessie, Jennie Caroline Salina D, Mabel "B", Hazel, Robert John, Joseph Edwin, Murl Raymond, Victor Ray, and Ruby M. Redford
