The Rawlins Families

While Harvey was young, his family moved to Adam's Creek, Illinois, and later to Bear Creek, Illinois.

During all of this, Harvey married Margaret Elzirah Frost on Dec 3, 1846 in Nishnabotna, Missouri. The Rawlins family joined the Willard Richards Company on July 3, 1848 in Winter Quarters, Nebraska, and entered the Salt Lake Valley on Oct 10.

The Rawlins family moved to Draper soon after their arrival. While in Draper, Harvey built homes and farmed to care for his family. They lived in Draper until Nov 1, 1865 when they moved to Richmond. In 1870, they sold their property to the Richmond School Board and built another home in south Richmond.
