Sarah Shuler Buckwalter married Heber Chase Kimball after her husband passed away. I do not know if they had any children.
-------------------
Sarah Shuler Buckwalter Kimball, daughter of William and Sarah Crull Shuler, was born May 15, 1801, at Chester County, Pennsylvania. She married John Buckwalter at West Nantmeal, and eight children were born of their union. John embraced the gospel in the year 1839, and died on the first of March, 1841. Sometime during this year Sarah became convinced of the truth of Mormonism and was baptized. In April of 1842 she with her children started on their journey to Nauvoo, traveling by steamboat from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to Nauvoo. At this time her eldest child was thirteen and her youngest only two.
Sarah was forced to remain in Nauvoo after the main body of Saints had left. In September of 1846 the mob attacked the few remaining Saints who were unable to start with those who left earlier. Then on the 10th of the month, Sarah and children were driven from Nauvoo. They fled across the Mississippi into the Territory of Iowa and camped upon its banks.
As winter with its chilly blasts came nearer, Sarah decided with her sons to try to seek shelter from the cold, as well as to obtain work which would supply them with food and clothing; so they determined to go to St. Louis, which was 200 miles away. Upon arriving in Keokuk they learned a steamboat was already in the harbor bound for St. Louis. Sarah visited the captain and tried to engage passage for her family, telling him she had no money but would pay him with any household articles he cared to accept. For pay he took a feather bed and an old Kentucky rifle which had belonged to her husband.
The boys obtained work and were able to provide an adequate living for the family. Early in the spring of 1849 Sarah returned to her home in Pennsylvania to visit her relatives. One of her brothers said he thought the gospel work might be true but he did not have time to bother with it. Another brother tried to persuade her to forsake the “deluded Mormons” and return to her family.
In April 1852 the Buckwalter family traveled by steamboat to Council Bluffs. Wagons, supplies, yokes of steers and everything needed for the journey were purchased, but the family was in camp at Winter Quarters for about four weeks preparing for the trip across the plains. On May 31, 1852, the line of march commenced. After traveling two months and twelve days, enduring many hardships and dangers, they reached Salt Lake City on August 11, 1852.
It is not known just when Sarah Shuler Buckwalter was sealed to President Heber C. Kimball, but her granddaughter, Helen Taylor Allison, said, “Church records verify her marriage to Heber C. Kimball.” This is shown by the fact that President Kimball took an interest in Sarah’s temporal and spiritual welfare. Whitney names her as one of Heber’s wives.
The Buckwalter family pitched their tents and wagons on the banks of the Jordan River near the old racetrack. On August 31st Sarah and her son Henry drove all but one yoke of oxen to graze for the fall out on Church Island. By the 15th of September they rented a house in the Ninth Ward, and the family moved from their encampment.
Sarah’s daughter Sarah, age 15, died April 2, 1853. In 1855 they moved to American Fork, where they endured many hardships incident to those early days. Sarah moved with Henry to Salt Lake City in 1877, where she died on January 25, 1879, from a paralytic stroke.
On January 26, 1846 Sarah had a full day at the Nauvoo Temple. According to Nauvoo Temple records housed at the visitor’s center in Nauvoo, Illinois she received her endowments and was sealed to her husband, John Buckwalter. She was then married to Heber C. Kimball for time only. Margaret was baptized and received her endowments. The children who lived to the age of accountability received their endowments between 1857 and 1864 at the Endowment House in Salt Lake. All the children were sealed to their parents in the Salt Lake Temple on October 11, 1894. Sealing ordinances have been performed many times for Heber and Sarah and all were unnecessary. John, Sarah and all their children, both living and dead were sealed together for eternity, while Heber and Sarah did not have children.
