Jane Durrant Adams no 23 I, Jane Durrant Adams, was born on the 3rd of December, 1846 in England. On the 5th of May, 1866 I set sail for America on the ship 'Caroline'. We were on the water five weeks and three days, arriving in New York, June 11, 1866. We at once started for Wyo. Now called Florence, and arrived in Salt Lake City September 25. Yes! We had lots of hardships on the way, not much sickness and few deaths, though I, myself, was sick all the time I was on the water. The saints enjoyed themselves most of the way because they were all trying to help one another and live their religion. Well, I married Thos. Adams, one of the teamsters, and our first home was part of his father's granery. One end was used for a grain bin, and we used the other end. My father-in-law had a flat bran box and that was our table, a bench was our chairs and he made two benches and out some boards on for our bed. I cooked in in open fire place. Our hardships were many but our Heavenly Father was with us through them all. I am afraid our trials will be greater, and I wonder if we will be able to stand the test as good as we did the pioneer days.
