About
Elizabeth joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints when she was eight years old. Though her family could not make the means to go to Utah, Elizabeth decided to go on her own to live with the Saints with a young man she was planning on marrying. She left England in 1868 and arrived in Utah on Sep 2, 1868. She married Benjamin Loss Peart Aug 9, 1869 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The family was called by the Church to go and aid in the settlement of Soda Springs, Idaho. On their way, they stopped in Richmond to visit Elizabeth's family who had decided to settle. While in Richmond, all of Benjamin's items were stolen, and they were forced to settle their lives in Richmond.
