Abstract

The Mormon colonizers who settled in Chihuahua, Mexico, faced hardships similar to those faced by others settling the frontier. Sickness, hunger, poverty, and natural disasters, combined with the threat of attacks from the native Indians, made life for these Latter-day Saints difficult. The author tells the stories of these Saints as they tried to make a home for themselves in Mexico during the time period 1885 to 1900.
