Description
My 4th Great Grandmother Sarah Franks. She joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in England when she was 16 years old. She traveled to the United States with her fiancé George and pulled a handcart across the plains to join the rest of the church members in the Salt Lake valley Utah. The trek across the plains was incredibly arduous and her fiancé died due to illness. She sacrificed a LOT to get to Salt Lake, literally losing the love of her life. I admire her faith and determination. Her little life motto was "it will all be worth it" and I've adopted it as my own. She inspires me when I go through hard times. I am grateful for her faith, love, and sacrifice. I wouldn't exist without her.
