Emigration - Thomas Fowler was on the very first Perpetual Emigration Handcart Company (the Edmund Ellsworth .Co. of 1856).
He
responded to the following call from the First Presidency of the LDS
Church to "Come to Zion" from Worcestershire, England. He submitted his
one pound note as a deposit to the Church Elders (which her received
back once arriving in the Utah Territory), and signed on the sailing
ship "Enoch Train".
