Isaac Wardle Missing 1901

This is a series of transcribed newpaper articles from 1901 dealing with Isaac Wardle's disappearance.  As we know Isaac eventually showed up in San Francisco, And William Haston went and brought him home.  My theory is he was escaping persecution from U.S. Marshalls for polygamy.  These articles were emailed to me by Denise Croft.

OLD PIONEER MISSING
Disappearance of I.J. Wardle Alarms His Friends
WAS LAST SEEN IN A BANK
On October 10th, Mr. Wardle Cashed a Check for $100 at the Deseret National Bank, and Left the Building—Since Then His Family and Friends have Received No Word as to His Whereabouts—Police Will Send Out Descriptions of the Missing Man today.
    The relatives and friends of I.J. Wardle, one of the Utah Pioneers, are much exercised over his mysterious disappearance in the city nearly three weeks ago.  So complete has been his disappearance that the persistent efforts of his sons and of the police have not been rewarded by any trace of his whereabouts.   When last seen on the afternoon of October 10th the aged man was in the Deseret national bank, where he cashed a check for the sum of $100.  Cashier Young saw him walk from the bank after securing the money, but as to what became of him after that no information has been gained thus far.  As he was entirely in his right mind and is not given to the use of intoxicants, fears are entertained that he may have met with some mishap, if not foul play.
    Mr. Wardle left his home in Gale, Southwest of the city, on the forenoon of the day of his disappearance, and which he did not return at night his two sons, W.H. Wardle and I.J. Wardle Jr., thought that he might remained with some of his numerous friends in the city, and did not begin a search for him for nearly a week.  When the missing man could not be located in the city, communication was at once opened with towns in northern Idaho, where he has a large ranch, but it was learned that nothing had been seen of him in that locality.  His sons have not been able to secure the slightest clue.
    The police have decided to make circulars bearing descriptions and photographs of the missing man to the police departments of the principal cities of the West.  These circulars will be sent out today.
    Mr. Wardle has a large number of friends in the city and in outlying districts, having resided in Salt Lake valley for over forty years past.  He emigrated to Utah in 1857.  He is 67 years of age, and when last seen was attired in light coat and vest, brown trousers and light-colored hat.

They Believe Wardle is Dead
Friends and Relatives of the Missing Pioneer Search Large Area of Country for His Remains
The relatives and friends of I.J. Wardle, the old pioneer who has been missing since October 10th are now firm in the belief that he has met with foul play.  So strong has this belief become that yesterday a searching party was organized in South Jordan and a large section of country was searched for some clue to the missing man.
The area covered was from Murray south, a distance of two miles and from State road to the Jordan river.  Although the search was most thorough, nothing was discovered.
So far as has been learned, Mr. Wardle has never been seen since he cashed a check for $100 at the Deseret National band and left the building.  He intended returning to the home of Charles Meyers, two miles south of Murray for the night, but did not reach there.  His family and friends instituted the search yesterday, fearing that he was robbed and murdered while in route to Meter’s place from Murray.

Book Review: Route from Liverpool to Great Salt Lake Valley

Boat and tug in Liverpool

This book, as a resource for Isaac's history provides some general details about the trek.  The author, Frederick Piercy traveled the Mormon Trail by wagon in 1853, and gives general information about the journey.  As he went the New Orleans route, there is some of Isaac's route which was different, however the coincided after Council Bluffs.   He gives general information on boat travel and wagon train organization which would apply to all the Mormon companies.  He also provides a series of sketches, which he drew in 1853; and give us a few of places only three years before Isaac passed.  This book was published by the Church's offices in Britain with Franklin Richards, publisher.  It is available free through Google Books.

Book Review: Church History Broomhead through Condie

This is a section from the Church History Library.  I have been going through all the entries there with regards to the Martin Handcart Company.  The best articles in this section were a couple written by rescuers;   William Broomhead and Harvey Cluff.  It is amazing to see the picture painted of the handcart pioneers from the perspective of the rescuers.  They talk of the high snow gong into the valley and over the big and little mountains, of the condition of the Saints when they were found, the hardships in getting them to Salt Lake, why  they went into Martin's Cove, etc.

There are also a couple women who wrote stories from Red Buttes, and how, just before they were rescued, the company was asked if they would be willing to lay down their lives for the Lord.  Hear rending stories.

Isaac Wardle and his Siblings

This reflects the work of Patti Call from Pleasant Grove, who is a genealogy major and descendant of Isaac Wardle.  She put this together for a class at BYU.  I have included a couple documents with regards to Joseph Wardle, Isaac next younger brother.  This would appear to be Joseph as on the marriage certificate the witnesses coincide with his brother and sister-in-law.  On the death certificate the age as well a father match. 


1. John Wardle was born 19 August 1811 in Ravenstone, Leicestershire, England to Thomas and Elizabeth Wardle.1 Ravenstone was a parish on the border of Derbyshire, and the area was known for its coal mines and picturesque farms. The site of the historic Battle of Bosworth was only 9 miles from Ravenstone.2 John married Mary Kinston Morton 12 November 1832 in Ravenstone parish.3 Family records say Mary was born in Shackerstone parish in 1806, but there is no evidence of this on the Shackerstone parish records.4 Some Wardle descendants have suggested that Mary’s middle name was Kinston and her maiden name was Morton, and that her parents were Edward Morton and Mary Kinston. I have not found any information to support this. My research indicates that Mary Kinston was possibly widowed after marrying a Morton and having one son, Thomas.

John, Mary and children Thomas, William, Isaac, Joseph, and Hannah lived in Ravenstone in 1841,5 and by 1851 the family (including their youngest son, James) had moved to Swannington, where John worked as a collier in the coal mines of Leicestershire and Derbyshire.6

Both John and Mary were baptized into the LDS church in while living in Leicestershire in 1845,7 and they immigrated to the United States on 30 March 1860 on the ship “Underwriter” with their youngest son, James.8 The Wardles were members of the Daniel Robinson Handcart Company.9 Mary is listed on the roster as “Mary Kinston Morton Wardle.” They were enumerated on the 1860 census while en route to Utah.10

After their arrival in Utah, they lived in a dugout above the west bank of the Jordan River in West Jordan, Utah for a few years with their son, William, and his family.11 By 1870, John and Mary were living in West Jordan with William and his family, and John was working as a farmer.12

John’s headstone in South Jordan cemetery says he died in 1875,13 but apparently he lived until after the enumeration of the 1880 census. He was living in South Jordan at that time with his granddaughter, Mary Smith.14 No record of his actual death has been found. Mary's death date is shown as 1872 on the South Jordan burial records, but there is no source for this information.15



i. Thomas Morton was born 23 Dec 1830 in Snarestone, Leicestershire, England16, according to the information on his death certificate. This was two years before the marriage of John Wardle and Mary Kinston Morton. I was unable to find marriage information for Mary Kinston and William Morton prior to 1830.

Thomas married Mary Ann Price in Cole Orton, Leicestershire on 30 Oct 1854 17. William Wardle was a witness to this marriage. Thomas listed William Morton, laborer as his father. In 1861 Thomas, Mary Ann, and their three children were living in Swannington, Leicestershire, and Thomas was working as a coal miner18. Also enumerated on the census was a visitor in the home, 27-year old Elizabeth Wardle. Elizabeth was a dress maker and said her birthplace was Bramford, Middlesex (see iii. Joseph Wardle).


Thomas and his family were living in Stavely, Derbyshire in 1871 and Thomas was working as a collier. Thomas immigrated to the US, arriving in New York on 23 July 1873 aboard the ship “Nevada” with his wife, Mary Ann, and their two sons. They were passengers in the steerage section of the ship.

In 1880, Thomas and his family were living in Coalville, Summit, Utah and Thomas was listed as a farmer. He was still living in Coalville in 1900, but was widowed at that time and living with his son Herbert and his family. In 1910 he was still in Coalville with Herbert’s family.

Thomas died 11 Jun 1911 in Coalville, Utah, at the age of 80. He was buried 13 Jun 1911 in the Coalville cemetery.


ii. William Wardle was born in 1833 in Ravenstone.19 He married Catherine White in England in 1854 in the parish of Whitwick.20 William and his family were living in Whitwick, Leicestershire in 1861, and he was working as a coal miner.21 

He joined the LDS church in 1848 at the age of 15,22 and immigrated to the United States on the ship “William Tapscott” in 1862.23 He and his wife and young daughter were members of the Homer Duncan Pioneer Company, which arrived in the Salt Lake Valley on 21 September 1862.24 After their arrival in Utah, William and Catherine lived in a dugout above the Jordan River for a number of years.25 In 1870, he and his family were living with his father, John Wardle, and William was working as a hired hand.26 He applied for and was granted a land patent in 1874. This property tract contained over 100 acres above the river and south of the present-day 9000 South Street in West Jordan.27 In 1880, he and his family were enumerated on the South Jordan census living only two houses away from his father, John, and William was working as a farmer.28

During the Blackhawk wars, William served as a member of the Salt lake Militia and helped guard the fort at Sanpete..29

William died in 1898 in West Jordan due to an apoplectic seizure,30 and was buried in the South Jordan city cemetery.31

iii. Isaac John Wardle was born in 1835 in Ravenstone, Leicestershire, England, and died in 1917 in Parker, Fremont, Idaho. His biography is found on page 5.


iv. Joseph Wardle was born 1 May 1837, but there is no record in the Ravenstone parish records of his birth.32 There is a record on the IGI of his LDS baptism in 1852,33 and that record lists his birth date. Joseph and Elizabeth Williams married on 30 May 1859 in Chesterfield, Derbyshire.34 Joseph died at the young age of 23 from smallpox and pneumonia on 12 Feb 1861.35 The Staveley Branch records of the LDS church say that Elizabeth, Joseph's widow, immigrated to Utah two months after his death.36 She was enumerated on the 1861 census with Thomas Morton’s family. Elizabeth departed England for Utah on 23 April 1861 on the ship “Underwriter” and is listed as Elizabeth Whardle on the Mormon Immigration Index37. There is no record of Elizabeth traveling with a specific pioneer company, but she was living with John, Mary, and James Wardle in West Jordan by October 1861 38, and in 1862 there was a marriage between Joseph Marriott and Elizabeth, widow of Joseph Wardell, in Salt Lake City.


v.  Hannah Wardle  was baptized in Whitwick, Leicestershire, England on 22 July 1839.39  There is no record of an LDS baptism for her, or any record of a death or burial in England.  Family records indicate the Hannah married a Fred Udy.40  A search of the Free BMD index shows a marriage between a Hannah wardle and Fredrick Udy in Leicestershire, 28 May 1855. 41  The certificate shows that the marriage was witnessed by William Wardle and Catherine Wardle 42, and Hannah would have been a very young bride of 16.  Apparently the Udy family immigrated to the US around the same time as the other Wardles as there are census records in Pennsylvania in 1860 43, 1970 44, and in Maryland in 1880 45 for a Hannah Udy, husband Fredrick and their children.  Hannah must have died sometime between 1880 and 1900 because Fred Udy is listed on the 1900 census as a widower 46.  He indicated that he immigrated to the US in 1860.  His obituary was printed in the Cumberland Evening Times47 after his death in 1906.


vi.  James Wardle, the youngest of John and Mary Wardle's children, was born 16 October 1841 in Ravenstone, Leicestershire, England48. He was 18 years old when he immigrated with his parents to Utah in 1860.47 James was married on 3 Feb 1866 to Mary Dixon,49 and shortly after the birth of their first child, they apostatized from the LDS church and left to “begin with the Josephites” in Missouri.51 They were living in Washington Township, De Kalb, Missouri according to the 1870 census,52 but ten years later, they were again in Utah, living in Union, Salt Lake county.53 It is likely that the family still affiliated with the Reorganized LDS church (Josephites) after their return to Utah. According to the local newspaper, an “Elder Wardle” of the RLDS Church was teaching in the Salt Lake area in 1876.54

James later worked as a farmer who owned his own farm in 1900 in West Jordan,55 and on the 1910 census, he claimed to be a naturalized citizen.56 He died on 17 Dec 1917,57 only 47 days after the death of his brother, Isaac. He was buried in the South Jordan city cemetery.58



2.  Isaac John Wardle was born in Ravenstone, Leicestershire, England on 14 Jun 1835.59 According to family records, he worked as a rope maker at age 7, and then started working in a coal mine.60 Isaac joined the LDS church in 1853,61 and in 1856 he immigrated to the United States on the ship “Horizon”.62 Since he was traveling alone, he agreed to push a handcart containing camping equipment and an ill boy, Langley A. Bailey.63 They left Nebraska with the ill-fated Edward Martin Handcart Company in late summer of 1856 and after many hardships, arrived in Salt Lake City on 30 November 1856.64
Isaac married Martha Egbert in 1859,65 and they were living in West Jordan in 1860.66 A second wife, Mary Ann (Ashton), died in childbirth in 1869. In 1870, he was living in South Jordan with wives Martha and Sophia (Myers), and four children.67 Four years later, Isaac received a land patent in December 1874, and farmed over 100 acres of ground above the Jordan River and just north of the present-day 11400 South Street.68

In January 1879, Isaac departed Utah for a mission in Liverpool, England,69 and later records indicate he was called to serve as a traveling elder.70 His service was short, because in September 1879, he was listed as a returning elder in the Deseret News.71 By the time of the 1880 census he was once again in South Jordan, working as a farmer.72

As pressure to discontinue polygamy mounted, Isaac was arrested on 4 June 1890 for practicing unlawful cohabitation. He appeared in court and was bound over for trial.73 The Wardles took measures to avoid future prosecution; on the 1900 census, wife Sophia was recorded as a head of household, and claimed to be a widow.74

Unexpectedly, on 10 October 1901, Isaac Wardle went to the local bank, withdrew $100, and disappeared.75 There were some who feared he had been murdered, but his local bishop said that financial burdens may have played a role in his disappearance.76 Six months later, in April 1902, he turned up in St. Anthony, Idaho, having sojourned in Oregon for the previous months.77

Isaac died in Parker, Fremont, Idaho on 30 October 1917, and his funeral was held 2 November 1917 with Mr. Langley Bailey as a speaker.78 Brother Bailey credited Isaac Wardle for saving his life at Martin's Cove, stating, “There lies my human horse. Had it not been for him, my bones would have been bleached on the plains a long time ago.”79 Isaac was buried in the Parker city cemetery.80

Thanking people who have sent me stuff

This week has been incredible with stuff that has come through the email.  First I noticed a past email I had received with attachments and found an article about coal mining as well as two partriarchal blessing for Isaac Wardle.  This email was from Lynn Wardle.
I then received email with regards to Joseph Wardle, Isaac's brother from Iva Wardle Beckstead.  This recounted his marriage in 1859 and then his death in 1861 due to chicken pox and pneumonia.  I now have wedding documentation as well as death certificate.  He apparently had moved to Chesterfield and worked as a miner.
Lastly, I received form Denise Croft, which included newspaper articles form when Isaac was missing in 1901.  Family had assumed he had met foul play.  As soon as I figure out how to post these documents I will.  Billy
