From "Henefer, Our Valley Home" (p.13): Came to America on ship Cynoshure, 15 Apr 1863. She came to Utah 20 Sep 1864 in the Joseph S. Rawlins Company.
From "Henefer, Our Valley Home" (p.34): Elizabeth Dearden (Aunt Betty), wife of Thomas, was loved by everyone in the community. She was an experienced midwife and officiated at the birth of many Henefer children. She was the mother of 13 children. They lived about 1 1/2 miles out of town at the mouth of Main Canyon. On March 4, 1895, she delivered a girl baby for Mrs. Charlotte Beard (Hazel Ann), took care of mother and child, then walked home to care for her son Stephen, who was ill. Two days later Stephen passed away. In the afternoon of the same day, after laying out her dead son, Aunt Betty came to the home of the Beard's to take care of Mother Beard. Surprised, Mrs. Beard said, "Oh, Betty, why did you come today?" and Betty answered with a quiet serene smile, "I have done all I can for the dead, now I must take care of the living."
