Died at Sugar Creek, Lee County, Iowa. Sugar Creek Historic Site. Sugar Creek Camp was the staging ground where the first group of emigrants gathered and waited for Brigham Young while preparing for their journey west. The main camp was east of the creek; later, the company also camped briefly on the west side. The Mormons departed Sugar Creek on March 1, 1846. Sugar Creek Historic Site is directly west of Montrose, on Road J-72 (the road to Argyle.) The site is on privately owned pastureland and no traces of the original camp are visible and no on-site interpretation is provided. Please view from the road and do not enter property without owner's permission.
