Married Ebenezer Brown, 26 Aug 1842, Pleasantville, Pike, Illinois. Heart Throbs of the West, Kate B. Carter, Vol. 2, p. 75. Phebe Draper Palmer Brown, the daughter of William and Lydia Lothrap Draper, was born in Rome, Oneida County, New York, on October 9, 1797. The Drapers originally came from England to America in 1645, locating near Boston. The family spread through the New England states. In 1800, Thomas Draper and his wife moved to Canada. His son, William, had left New York and settled in Pennsylvania.
Phebe married George Palmer in 1815 in Canada, when she was eighteen years old. To them were born seven children: Lovina, Osahel, William, Eliza, Lydia, Zemira, and Rhoda. They joined the Church in 1833 and gathered with the Saints in Kirtland, Ohio. He died in 1835, leaving her with these small children. In the year 1836, Joseph Smith, Sr., gave her a blessing of comfort and promise. He told her if she was faithful and wise, she would be blessed with a companion who would be a man of God, and that she would be able to bring up her family right; that she would have good, happy days. She suffered the hardships of the Saints, being driven from Kirtland to Missouri, and from Missouri to Nauvoo, Illinois, where the one promise of her blessing was fulfilled by her marriage to Ebenezer Brown in 1842, his wife having died and left him with a family of four children. They were driven from their comfortable homes into the wilderness, where they were camping in the year 1846. The call came from the government for five hundred of their best men to fight in the war with Mexico. The men were gathered at Council Bluffs, Iowa, where they left from, and were known as the Mormon Battalion. Ebenezer Brown enlisted. His wife, Phebe, also went as a laundress. She made many of the soldiers' burdens lighter by her kindness to them. They were mustered out of service in San Diego, California, March 14, 1848. Mr. Brown's younger children were left in care of a married daughter, Harriet, wife of Oliver Shallon. They arrived in the Valley before the parents. Gold being discovered in California, the parents being without money, decided to stay and wash out gold. She helped wash gold herself to help them on their journey back to the Saints who had gathered in Utah. She rode a mule (whose name was Ginny), all the way from California. In 1849, Brother Brown settled in Draper. She moved from Salt Lake in the spring of 1850 with the rest of the children, they being the first family to settle in Draper. In 1853, her husband married Samantha Pulsipher, and in 1854, he married Mary Elizabeth Wright. In 1870, Mary died, leaving a family of small children, which Phebe took care of, making three families she raised, her own and two of her husband's. She acted as first postmistress of Draper, held a position in the Relief Society and was a faithful member. She was a well-read woman and had a fair education for that time. Her husband, Ebenezer Brown, died in 1878. She lived in Draper until her death on February 28, 1879, being 82 years of age, a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

     William Draper was born on 24 April 1807 at Cramahe Twp., Northumberland Co., Upper Canada; "I was born in the Province of Upper Canada, Township of Richmond, County of Frontenac, Midland District, April 24, 1807." from FindaGrave.
Note: This incorrect. Richmond Township is part of Lennox & Addington County, well west of Frontenac County. This appears to be an attempt by someone who was born in Canada in 1807 trying to remember the names of townships in Upper Canada, looking back decades and not having any idea of the geography or the organization of counties and townships. Should not be a surprise. See it all the time. Instead, lets look at the records which show is parents living in Cramahe Township, Northumberland County in this timeframe. (Dan Buchanan, Apr 16 2026)
Note: Locations are uncertain in this time period. Based on the circumstance of Lydia (Rogers) Draper's death on Feb 7 1807, likely in Cramahe Township where they lived according to census records, it is likely that son William stayed with his widowed father, although he appears in Cramahe census records first in 1810. Might he have lived for a couple of years with his older brother, Thomas, in Ernestown Township before coming back to Cramahe? (Dan Buchanan, Apr 16 2026) per IGI Record.
Note: Another point to note is that Thomas Draper, old brother of William, did own land in Richmond Twp., but that was between 1814 and 1825, concession 3, lot 22.
