James Harvey Heath came to Utah in 1851 and made handcarts for the pionee
rs who came to Utah with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saint
s.  See also "Pioneers and Prominent Men of Utah," Frank Esshom, Vol. 1, p
p. 927-928 (Utah Pioneers Book Pub. Co., 1913)(providing information abo
ut the birth, marriages, death and children of James Harvey Heath).  Accor
ding to notes collected by Beatrice Sena Heath, great-granddaughter of Jam
es Harvey Heath, written by Dora Gates Christensen, the following occurr
ed to James Harvey Heath during his lifetime:  "James Harvey Heath embrac
ed the Gospel and joined the church (sic) of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Sa
ints in the year 1839, June 15, in Hinds Co., state (sic) of Mississipp
i.  He was baptized by Daniel Taylor of Beaver.  He received the gift of t
ongues a month after baptism.  He landed in Nauvoo (Ill.) March 25, 184
0.  He was ordained an elder under the hands of Dr. Richards and Charl
es O. Ride at April 3 Conference at Nauvoo, Illinois, in 1840.  A terrib
le tragedy came into the family soon after he and his (first) wife join
ed the church and moved up to Nauvoo. Very soon after their arrival, his w
ife and four of his children died within a very short time of each othe
r, all but his son George Fluker Heath.  The "Nauvoo Neighbor" (a periodic
al) records that Teressa Heath, age 26 years; Sarah Ann Heath, age 5 year
s; and an infant died the week ending Aug. 21, 1843.  The same periodic
al records that Jefferson Smith Heath (no age given) and Mary Jane Heat
h, age 2 years, died the week ending Sept. 25, 1843, leaving George Fluk
er Heath, age 6 years, and his father alone.  James Harvey Heath was comfo
rted and consoled by Brother Hyrum Smith, the Patriarch of the Church, a
nd was given a most wonderful Patriarchal blessing, Oct. 1, 1843, by Hyr
um Smith, a copy of which some members of the Heath family have.  James Ha
rvey Heath was called to labor for the Saints at Agusta (sic) Lee, Iowa Co
., in 1840 for two years.  He labored quarrying stone for the buildi
ng of the Nauvoo Temple, and was also a member of a guard under Col. Hamo
n.  He toured the southern states advocating Joseph Smith's policy concern
ing the national government. Carried political news of Joseph Smith in Sep
t., 1843, and all through the winter.  He was ordained a Seventy by Benjam
in James at April Conference in 1843, and set apart to fill a mission to p
reach the gospel in Mississippi and Louisiana.  He was baptized for the de
ad in the Mississippi River in 1843, and was baptized for the dead in Nauv
oo Temple in 1846."  Eventually, after many hardships, James Harvey Hea
th moved on to Utah and settled at South Weber.  "He took up a farm and w
as engaged in farming and stock raising for some time...He worked at sawi
ng and hauling lumber for about three years, and then went to East Webe
r, bought a large adobe house, and lived there until he was called to S
t. George (Utah) in 1861...He was ordained a high (sic) Priest by George W
illiam Fawcett and William Perkins on St. George Temple block (in 1872).  
In the fall of 1872, he did baptisms and endowments in St. George Temple f
or the dead.  Also in Manti Temple."  According to the Heath family histor
y, "he rounded out a long useful life, always the Pioneer, always courageo
us, an intrepid leader into new parts until the evening of his life.  He m
ade a deed of himself and all his property to the church (sic) in 186
3, a deed that should never be broken.  In 1872, in the fall he helped bui
ld a ferry boat.  He was called to perform a mission working among the Ind
ians in 1872.  He joined the United Order in the summer of 1875.  He mov
ed to Wayne County, Utah, and built and run (sic) the first Griss Mi
ll in Wayne County. James Harvey Heath died Oct. 21, 1904 in Thurber, Way
ne Co., Utah (now Bicknell) among Friends and Relatives."  According to Ja
mes Harvey Heath's great-granddaughter, Beatrice Sena Heath, James is buri
ed in the Bicknell Cemetery, Bicknell (formerly Thurber), Wayne County, Ut
ah.  According to information obtained from "Biography of Eliza Mac (si
c) Powell," written by Dora Gates Christensen as told to her by her grandm
other, Susan Carter Heath:  "Along with raising their family, my grandfath
er (James Harvey) Heath had two woman (sic) (wives) and the (police) offic
ers were after the Polygamists (sic) so grandmother (Abigal Olmstead Hold
en Heath) being a second wife came and lived with my parents until her dea
th in 1891."
