In the original Pioneer Chugg families: John Philip, Catherine and William we find Chappelle families under Catherine. I have watched for news from this line, as valid to me as any of the other Chugg cousins, if less frequent. After all, some cousin families were very large families. I count it as the blessing of family history that I have gotten to know, in person some of the families, and that is the case with these two. Dennis I met once, with his wife, when I first was beginning this project; when his wife passed away a little over a year ago I knew I had to be prepared to learn of his passing as well. With Dale, I have stopped by his home several times and had delightful conversations. I see that making the effort pays rewards and I missed the opportunity with Dennis and many others.

In Cherished Remembrance of Dennis James Dalton

Our beloved father has returned home to his Heavenly Father. Dennis James Dalton was born on September 5, 1938 in Ogden, Utah, to his parents, Ned James and Phoebe Jane Haworth Dalton. He passed away peacefully on April 22, 2025, at the Lotus Park Senior Living in West Haven, Utah, a resident of Taylor, Utah.

When Daddy was 6 years old, his mother passed away. A while later, his father married Thelma Evelyn Moulding Thompson Dalton. Dennis grew up in South Ogden, enjoying life and all that goes along with being a curious individual. He graduated from Weber High School, class of 1956. He served two missions for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Dennis loved attending church in North Ogden, Utah, and held many callings. He had a deep love for the scriptures and enjoyed sharing his testimony with his family.

He graduated from Weber State College in 1958 with a Certificate of Completion in Electronics. There he met the love of his life, Gail Lynn Elwell, and they were married June 5, 1959. Later, they were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on September 14, 1960. Dad and Mom loved each other completely and were totally committed to sharing their love with all they came in contact with. They loved to dance and attend ballets, theater, and concerts. Travel was always on the agenda. They explored many wonderful locations in this world, including all of America, Europe, New Zealand, Australia, parts of Africa, Spain, Russia, South America, Central America, Hawaii, Caribbean, Thailand, Israel, Palestine, Egypt, Mexico, and Canada. His last trip planned was Puerto Rico with his daughters, but he was unable to go due to medical restrictions. Dennis and Gail lived in North Ogden for 12 years and started their family. They then moved to Taylor, UT, where they resided for over 50 years.

Dennis worked at Hill Field, giving him lots of opportunities to excel in his job. He worked with the Minute Man Missile project. He was involved with the Bay of Pigs, ready to push the button to send the missiles to Cuba. Traveling was a big part of his job. Our father’s work ethic extended way beyond his day job. Dennis taught us that having fun and working went hand in hand. We always worked to earn money for our extra activities, but we played just as hard. When we would travel up to the mountains to cut down trees for firewood, we would go fishing. When we loaded tons and tons of flagstone rocks, we would go hunting or camping. Then we would sell the rock and firewood so that we could go on a family trip. Dennis taught his five beautiful daughters, to love nature, and to be able to incorporate that love to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He loved to teach his grandchildren how to collect, sort, and chop firewood. Then give them a small allowance to get a drink and a treat from Country Corner on the way back home. This was one of the many highlights of their childhood. He also recycled tires and would encourage his grandchildren to create the greatest of tire forts in the backyard, resulting in grand memories.

Dennis also loved to travel locally with his family, sharing his hobbies and love of nature. He frequently visited Antelope Island, went on hunting and fishing trips, his favorite spot being Locomotive Springs. He also had a love of rockhounding and could tell you everything you needed to know about them from gold to the pebble on the sidewalk. Dennis loved history and had a thorough knowledge of Native Americans and other ancient cultures. Trips to the desert usually resulted in many history lessons and rock hounding expeditions. While trips to the forest would lead to collecting firewood and pine nuts, and his favorite sport, fly fishing.

Family was everything to Dennis and Gail, gathering together, was the ultimate joy. When the grandchildren were asked if Santa Claus was real, they said, “Yes, Grandpa and Grandma are Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus.” Grandpa was also the Great Pumpkin on Halloween. He loved to throw out his pocket change on the lawn and share his metal detectors with his grandchildren so they could hunt for it in the notoriously long grass in his yard, that he kept long for his grandchildren to mow. He taught his grandchildren many survival skills and facts of nature, encouraging them to always learn and grow. We had outings where he would take his grandchildren and later his great- grandchildren on amazing adventures, sharing with them his love and knowledge. He could tell us the best stories, of his life, and things that he did as a young man. His sons-in-law loved Dennis as well and are so grateful for all the time and activities that he would attend with them.

He earned his Eagle Scout, three silver palms, and three gold palms. Dennis was also awarded the Silver Beaver Award. He loved Scouting and taught many young men and his grandsons the importance of being prepared. Four of his grandsons also earned their Eagle Scout Award, encouraged by their grandfather.

Family is what mattered to Dad. He wanted to be surrounded by his family 24/7. Even this last year of his life and especially during his one month stay at Lotus Park. He just wanted his family. He had friends at Lotus, but it just wasn't the same. He wanted his family to visit him every day. He especially loved all of the little great-grandchildren. When visiting with his family, he loved going out to eat with his children and grandchildren, and he especially loved going on adventures.

Dennis was blessed with five daughters and one son, Pamela Kay (Jeff) Gibson, Kim James Dalton Deceased, Debra Jane (Bradley) Story, Heidi Lynn (James) Bahr, Lara Lee (Derk) Russell, Suzzette (John) Liu. Also surviving is one sister, Carol Ann Thompson (Dallas) Buckway. He is also survived by 14 grandchildren, and their spouses, and 38 great-grandchildren.

Dennis was preceded in death by his wife, Gail Lynn Elwell Dalton; his son, Kim James Dalton; his son-in-law, Charles Brad Story; two great-grandchildren; his father, Ned James Dalton; mother, Phoebe Jane Haworth Dalton; and stepmother, Thelma Evelyn Moulding Thompson Dalton.

Our family would love to gather together with you for a Celebration of life and visiting on the June 7, 2025, from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Taylor 5th Ward, 3271 West 2550 South, West Haven. Funeral services will be held on Saturday, June 7, 2025, at 12:30 p.m. at the church. Interment will then take place at 2:30 p.m. at the Ogden City Cemetery

Dale John Chugg, beloved husband, father, brother, and friend, passed away peacefully at his home on May 23, 2025, in Farr West, Utah, at the age of 93.

Born on May 12, 1932, in Ogden, Utah to John Andrew and Ella Elizabeth Stokes Chugg. Dale lived a life of dedication—to his family, his faith, and his community. He married Ruth LaRita Holley on June 12, 1955, in the Salt Lake Temple marking the beginning of 70 years of a loving and devoted partnership. Together they raised six children, Sally (Clark VanWoerkom), John (Molly Armstrong), Susan (Jim Flint), Matt (Kristin Geddes), Clay (Audrey Yorgason), and Nathan (Natalie Thomas).

Preceded in death by his daughter, Sally; parents; and siblings, Connie, Jane, Kent and Joe.

Raising prize winning Jersey cows, riding horses, hunting, and raising children were his passion. Dale spent much of his life working on his family’s dairy farm, where his love for cows and the farming life took deep root. His lifelong commitment to agriculture was honored in 2023 when he was inducted into the Utah Dairy Hall of Fame.

Beyond the farm, Dale devoted himself to public and spiritual service. He worked for the DDO in Ogden, served on the Farr West City Council for 17 years, and as Assistant Mayor. His faith was central to his life, he served a mission to the Northwestern States, as a High Councilman, great home teacher, and Bishop of the Farr West First Ward, where he touched many lives with his leadership and compassion. He was an example of the Savior Jesus Christ, whom he loved and served.

Funeral services will be held on Saturday, May 31, 2025, at 11 a.m. at the Farr West 1st Ward Chapel, 1800 North 1800 West. Friends may visit with family on Saturday from 9 to 10:30 a.m. at the church. Interment, Ben Lomond Cemetery, North Ogden.

These obituaries are from the Ogden Standard-Examiner. The first for Jane Chugg Renstrom who  I have actually met, and for which I am grateful. I do much of my research alone and from public records (as opposed to personal sharing) and having met Jane several times adds meaning to my project. Jane's obituary was in this morning's paper, while Roger's I found on the mortuary's website after visiting Jane's brother this afternoon. Kraig V. Chugg's notification was almost a month ago. These three Chugg kin are from John Chugg and Hannah Lee family. I am aware my information is from local media. Believe me that those passages and milestones I miss out on for this reason are also important to me, because you are. This is OUR record.

Jane Renstrom Obituary

Jane Elizabeth Chugg was born December 31, 1943, on New Year’s Eve, to John Andrew and Ella Elizabeth Stokes Chugg in Ogden, Utah. She was the fifth child of seven children born to a dairy farmer. Jane loved her childhood growing up on the farm in the old adobe family home in Farr West. It was small but full of love. Jane adored her father and loved working on the farm with him. She was best friends with her siblings; Dale, Connie, Shirley, Marilyn, Kent, and Joe. The family is known for their amazing work ethic.

Jane was always active in school and loved to learn. She also enjoyed being a cheerleader, singing in the choir, playing piano, dancing, and debating. Jane also was a top cattle judge in High School.

Jane started college at Utah State University and married Serge Benson Simmons. While married to Serge she had the first three of her six children. During this time Jane finished her teaching degree at Weber State College and started teaching English at Bonneville High School. Serge joined the Marine Corps during the Vietnam War and tragically was killed in action when Jane was only 26 years old.

Jane later married and was sealed to Darrell George Renstrom in the Switzerland Temple. They soon settled in the Ogden, Utah area. She would have her final three children while married to Darrell. Darrell was a hard-working attorney and state senator, and during this time she was often found attending his civic functions. Jane again would suffer the devastating loss of a spouse when Darrell died unexpectedly from complications of a heart attack leaving her widowed at the age of 48.

Jane was a fantastic mother and showed her children unconditional love. Her blended family never felt like they were combined – they were one united family. Her greatest desire in life was for her children’s success and happiness. Jane was an outstanding cook; her weekly Sunday meals were delicious and welcoming to all. It must be noted that butter was her favorite ingredient. She would later be awarded Mother of the Year for Weber County, a well-deserved honor.

Even with all of her familial obligations, Jane was in constant service to her church and community. She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in many positions. She had a strong testimony of the happiness Christ’s message brought her. Jane also served four years on the Dixie Institutional Council; four years on the Foundation for McKay Dee Hospital; and eight years on the Weber County Library Board (6 years as president). Her lifelong love of music also led her to volunteer for the Symphony Guild for over 20 years. Jane was also an avid genealogist who cared passionately about preserving and sharing stories and memories of her ancestors. She was very talented with needlework and created beautiful quilts for her children and grandchildren as well as cross-stitch, embroidery, crochet, and tatting work.

Jane earned her Master’s Degree in Education and went on to get a School Counseling Certificate. She worked for 25 years in various capacities for Ogden City School District. The students loved her, and many have said she was the reason they got through school.

Jane later married Kenneth Wayne Stevenson. Wayne had four children; Dirk, Brooke, Travis, and Jammi (Mike). Wayne joined Jane and her crazy family, fitting right in. Wayne may have had no idea what he was taking on, but he dove in and did a brilliant job. A few years after their marriage, Chantile, Jane’s oldest daughter tragically died from an extensive, chronic illness on June 6, 1997. She left five young children behind. Jane and Wayne took a large role in raising Chantile’s five children and were eventually able to have Samara and Sarah Jones live with them during their high school years.

Jane and Wayne later retired and were able to travel the world as well as spending time in St. George. They always came back to town for grandchildren’s graduations, games, and performances. As Jane’s health deteriorated, Wayne took care of many of the day-to-day chores. His gentle, tender care for her will always be held in her children’s hearts.

Jane died on October 13, 2024, of an extended illness. The family would like to thank Atlas Homecare & Hospice, especially her nurses Ranal and Shanna.

Jane is survived by her husband, K. Wayne Stevenson, and his four children. Also surviving are Jane’s children Wendy Simmons (Shawn) Johnson, Timothy (Maureen) Simmons, Natasha (Robert Rock) Wilson, Zachary (Alison) Renstrom, Reuben (Collette) Renstrom; her brother Dale Chugg; and sisters Shirley Chugg Taylor, and Marilyn Chugg Larsen. Finally, 21 grandchildren, six great-grandchildren, and two on the way. She was preceded in death by her husbands mentioned above and daughter Chantile Melinda Jones, her father, John Chugg and mother, Ella Stokes Chugg, her sister Connie Chugg Chatlin, and brothers Joe and Kent Chugg.

Funeral services will be held on Saturday, Oct. 26, 2024 at 11 am at the Mountain Ward, 787 E. 1700 N. North Ogden. A viewing will be held on Friday from 6-8 pm at Myers Mortuary, 845 Washington Blvd. Ogden and at the church on Saturday prior to the service from 9:30-10:30 am.

Kraig Victor Chugg

August 19, 1951 — September 16, 2024

Kraig V. Chugg, 73, a long-time South Weber resident, passed away peacefully of natural causes on Monday, September 16, 2024, in Ogden, with his wife by his side. Born August 19, 1951, in Ogden, Kraig was the youngest son of Mildred Yates and Grant Delmar Chugg. 

He graduated from Ogden High School Class of 1969 and enlisted in the U.S. Army Reserves. He was released to serve a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which he fulfilled in the Northwestern States Mission, even extending his period of service for several months when called as an Assistant to the President of the mission. Upon returning home, he fulfilled his Army assignment, later being honorably discharged as a Staff Sergeant.

After returning home, he met M. Edith Rumsey through her brother, Carl, who worked with Kraig as a security guard for IRS. After the introduction, Kraig and Edith started dating and were married on October 9, 1974.

For most of his life, Kraig worked in Ogden as a bread checker and loader for Wonderbread and was a member of the Bakers and Confectioners Union Local 401, Salt Lake City, retiring in about 2010.

Kraig and Edith raised four children and loved to spend time together. A special vacation they enjoyed as a family was spent in San Francisco when their daughter, Tiffany, was invited with her dance group to perform for the half-time show of a 49ers football game. A homebody, Kraig had many fond memories with his family there. They all supported him through the years as he battled against dementia.

Kraig had a love for the gospel and some of his favorite callings were serving in the Sunday School Presidency and in the temple with Edith. Kraig also enjoyed poetry and being read to by his wife. He was a city boy that was in love with a country girl.

He will be remembered most for his ability to love people, to serve as a peacemaker, and to solve problems. Kraig was always willing to forgive and to forget and truly saw the best in others.

Kraig is survived by his wife of 49 years, M. Edith Chugg, South Weber; children, Brady (Tereasa) Chugg, Hooper; David (Britta) Chugg, Clinton; Becky (Seth Matthews) Harder, Wisconsin Rapids, WI; Tiffany (Will) Milligan, South Weber; 14 grandchildren; and 3 great-grandchildren; and by his siblings, Gary (Kathy) Chugg, Riverdale; JoAnn Brown, South Weber.

After a time, I must report losses

Two obituaries appeared recently, adding some background and some new information to my Chugg Family research.
From John Chugg/Hannah Lee lines:

Evelyn married Cecil Karl Chugg on February 19, 1955. Cecil and Evelyn were later sealed to their family in the Los Angeles, California Temple. Evelyn loved to crochet, quilt, scrapbook, and to do family history work. She crocheted many alter cloths for LDS temples around the world and gave away many, many pieces of her work throughout her life. She had a fun sense of humor, loved to play cards and games, and, above all, loved her family.

This from the the Phillip Chugg/Johanna Howell and Elizabeth Chugg/William Harris lines:

Roger Ray Chugg 77, our beloved husband, father, uncle, and friend passed away on Saturday, October 26, 2019 in Bountiful Utah. He fought a long hard battle against congestive heart failure. He was always known as Ray to all who knew him. Ray was born on January 18, 1942 in Soda Springs Idaho to Vern Albert and Goldie Arilla Skinner Chugg. Ray graduated from Soda Springs High School and met his wife Maralyn in Salt Lake City. They had one son Vern Curtis in 1974. Ray worked as a Baggage Handler for Trailways and then Greyhound for most of his working life, but also had several other jobs before he retired.

Ray loved the outdoors. He and Maralyn would often go for rides in the canyon and around town. Some of his son’s fondest memories were the times they would go and collect firewood in Evanston Wyoming. Ray liked cars and drove a Pontiac GTO for several years. Ray shared his love for the San Francisco 49ers Football team with his son Vern. He also liked watching the Utah Jazz. He and his wife rarely missed a game on TV. Ray loved life and had a wonderful sense of humor. He loved to tease and joke with his family and friends. He always believed in being on time. He was frequently found working on a word search puzzle or playing a game on his Nintendo DS. He loved the holidays even though he pretended not to. He and the Elf on the Shelf worked together several times during the Christmas season for the last few years. Ray loved his family and they loved him. He will be dearly missed.

Sometimes A Little Backtracking is Good

When I first began my Chugg family research, my grandmother Backman was my primary source. On more than one occasion my research has borne out that I am a fallible human in research. Love her to goodness, grandmother was also.
Irene Annie Treharne, she told me had married someone with the name Waterhouse, and had had two sons, Raymond and Howard, whom I forever after sought for under Raymond Waterhouse and Howard Waterhouse.
Well, today for some reason I opened up this line of research again and found Irene married to Raymond W. Foster in Ogden Utah in 1913. FOSTER! Maybe that W would be the Waterhouse key.
It was not, it is West, his mother's maiden name. But, I found a census showing that she had married a Mr. Waterhouse! But Raymond had been a stepchild in that family as well, and his name was Raymond West Foster, their sons Raymond W Foster, Jr and Howard John Foster.
So I begin research now on a new path, with new information, after backtracking.
We can view it as bad research, or that we are human researchers. I'll take the latter, and remind that baktracking can be - is - a research tool!
Tell me your news! We've been apart too long!

I am adding a note after a weekend and several days: having given this family a flurry of attention, I again have come to an end of the path.

This I know (or believe I do)
Raymond West Foster, Jr, b. 9 Apr 1914, Ogden, d. 20 May 1974, Inyo co, CA
Howard John Foster, b. 1 Dec 1916, Ogden, d. 12 Jan 1986, Orange co, CA

Notes from the mine - digging into our Chugg Family History.

I have tried to stay consistent with my projects; I originally set out to find the "whole other family" that I learned about after finding John Chugg buried in Ogden, Utah. I was new to that area and did not know that John Chugg had been widowed and then had married a second wife with whom he had settled  the Harrisville and Farr West area of Weber County.

What an education and adventure when I did learn of these kinfolk, and of the extended families through John's brothers and sisters. I am rich with Chugg heritage!

Because I had set my sights on those family members descended from the pioneer Chugg families I have done little in the way of exploring the extended family remaining in Devonshire, England, or Glamorganshire, Wales.

Well, some time back I found a note on the Chugg Clan group in Facebook from a Chugg kinsman in Illinois asking for assistance with locating a line that included Scotland, Canada, and part of the USA (not Utah or Idaho) and maybe Australia.

My own family pedigree record does not match up with his exactly, but they do intersect. We will have to discuss just where as we get to know the family lines back about three hundred years.

Three hundred years ago does not seem as far as it used to. 1716? More than a few generations, but recent enough to have complete dates in some cases. That is something to make a fuss of!

So I spent a good part of a Saturday, which had been planned to work in a different family project, following up in a new vein of Chugg ore. I think this is a good find, and count on increasing my wealth.

Our wealth! Get out your family history tools and join in. Chris Seemann of the Chicago area has pictures from his late mother and wants help to possibly link these up with names, or to follow up the lines that link his family into your own. Was his Richard a child of John and Mary Parmynter Chugg or Richard and Susan Harris Chugg.

Suddenly I have a blank mind - was it Richard and Alice Coats? Well, back to work!

Life is full, generous with gifts and losses

Only today, Friday, did I get a chance to review Sunday's Ogden Standard-Examiner, where on page A-6 I learned of the recent death of our cousin Lawrence Lee Corry, whose mother Clara Hannah Orton was a granddaughter of John Chugg and Hannah Lee.

Lawrence Lee Corry was born on Halloween on October 31, 1939. He was nurtured by loving parents Clara Hannah Orton, Rowland Parry Corry, and Lawrence Lee Shurtleff. 
As a young boy, he traveled the world with his parents and developed a love of geography and people from all cultures and backgrounds. The friends and connections he made as a university student and during his LDS mission in France and Belgium would greatly influence the rest of his life. He married his eternal sweetheart, Rhea Kathleen Reeder, in the Logan Utah Temple on May 29, 1964. Their family was blessed with six children, and Larry has been the perfect father, providing love, support, and wisdom for each child in whatever makes them happy in choosing the path of their own lives. 
Larry’s professional life included work in Texas, California, Idaho, and Utah. He devoted most of his career to the Amalgamated Sugar Company, retiring in Ogden after serving the company for 34 joyous years with dear colleagues and mentors. His love for learning and business savvy propelled his career and provided a lifetime of opportunities and family memories. Larry also served in many church callings and was faithful in pursuing a Christian life. He was particularly committed to temple and family history work. His selfless service and generosity have been felt by all with whom he came in contact. 
He is survived by his beautiful wife, Kathee, of Washington Terrace, UT, and all of his children: Kamille and John of Salt Lake City, UT; Todd (Annette) of Roy, UT; Matthew (Sarah) of Honolulu, HI; Jill (Larry) of North Ogden, UT; Steffani (Tandy) of South Jordan, UT; and Melanee (Vincent) of Pleasant View, UT.  
Larry has a large extended family, with many half and step brothers and sisters. Even though his genealogy is multifaceted, Larry was able to keep it all organized and help his relatives understand how they are related. Most importantly, he loved all of his family members and relatives dearly and equally. He is survived by his wonderful sister Karen Sylvester of South Ogden, UT and loving brothers Craig Lee Shurtleff (Karen) of Weber County, UT and David Harbertson (Linda) of Salt Lake City, UT. 
Larry is a grandfather to seventeen amazing grandchildren, who gave him so much joy and light. He and Kathee have spent countless hours with their grandchildren, and he always remembered the details of each of their lives and what their interests were. “Grandpa dates” were a special treat that will be cherished as a time of learning, laughter, and bonding. He is survived by his grandchildren, who will miss him profoundly: Kipling, Roman, Bria, Emme, Quinn, Aloe, Pearl, Summer, Jasmine (Ree), Jade, Levi, Asia, Enoch, Estelle, Alec, Quentin, and Matteo. He is also survived by his wife’s beloved siblings, who were as close to him as his own: David (Beth) Reeder, Danny (Kaye) Reeder, Deanne (Bob) Krey, Norma (Danny) Nomura, and Colleen (Bill) Barker. 
Among Larry’s special friends, colleagues, and people who have graced his home and touched his heart are Karen Arbon Lloyd, Ville Hollanti, Murielle Marquet Inman, Didier Marquet, Pierre-Michel Durieux, Sophie Durieux, Helene and Steve Yang, Nancy Telford Barron, Krista Miner Sidwell, June Tan, Shu-Wei Huang, Judy Wu, Marsha Ferrin Packard, Sue Lundberg, Mike McCraley, and Phil McCraley. 
Larry was preceded in death by his parents; his brothers Jack and Dennis Harbertson; brothers/cousins Brent, Don, and Bill Hales; sisters Louann Harbertson, Renee S. Pebley, and Jackie S. Vail; and brother-in-law Blaine Sylvester. 
Our family feels deep gratitude for Kurt Larsen and other bystanders, who bravely saved our husband's and father's life. We would also like to profoundly thank the staffs of the emergency room, the ICU, and the Heart Institute at McKay Dee hospital who so competently and lovingly cared for him during the last week of his life. 
Larry’s 77 years were filled with purpose, service to others, and the simple things of life. He loved his wife’s beautiful music that she arranged and performed on the piano—best of all was listening to Kathee play in the comfort of their own home. For most of his life he was healthy and active. He especially enjoyed bowling and golf with his dear friends. In his final months Larry struggled with heart illness that he faced with strength, humor, and grace. Larry passed from this life and returned to his heavenly home on October 4, 2017. He leaves a legacy for which we will be eternally grateful. 
Funeral services will be held on Monday, October 9, 2017 at 11 a.m. at the Washington Terrace 12th Ward.  Interment, Lindquist's Memorial Gardens of the Wasatch, 1718 Combe Rd. 
I know I do not see every notice, but hope to keep our record as up to date as possible, for future researchers.

We lose one from among us.

I suddenly find I have too many irons in the fire! Almost posted a great story...From a different Family!

I have had the fun adventure of finding the Chugg Clan on Facebook. Michael Dan Chugg started this FB page a few years ago. I happened to be doing a search for any Chugg name connections and this one came up. I hope I can add  to that activity as it has already added to my activity here.

In the search for friends slot I just put in CHUGG and it gave me a list to choose from. I have been excited again after a while of overload.

Congratulations to the graduating seniors  and post grad students of our Chugg lines; it is that time of year!

Johanna's Families Continue On

I try to catch the news in our common family- The Family of Johanna Stanbury Chugg- but we have spread out, we have married and adopted new names, we have had children. I take every opportunity I can to learn where I can extend the family another generation.

Let me borrow from a Beattles song: it's a long and winding road. From Johanna's door to our own we have seen centuries turn, illnesses interrupt, families merge and other families separate. I was asked if I was intruding on anyone, invading their privacy. Someone else called my search 'digging up bones'. Those for whom this would be true, I will do my best to keep unwanted spotlights off you; also I will do all in my power to not put anyone in harm's way by disclosing addresses, phone numbers.

I am keeping a record of this family because I believe it is my family. I fully realize I may not meet you all- so many Chuggs, so little time- but I have been thrilled with those I  have met and hope to meet more. I will not promise to leave you out of it, though I will drop you from the mailing list if you request.

I want to travel to England this coming summer, especially to see the county of Devon. I want to hike for pleasure where our ancestors may have traveled for vital needs, farmed to keep food on the table, traded to improve their position. I will never be able to walk in their shoes but perhaps take a few steps on their ways. As my plans develop I will inform this blog.

In the meantime, as always, please know you are welcome here! You are, as much as I am Johanna's family.

Through William Chugg, Johanna's Youngest Child

William was the youngest of Johanna Stanbury and Philip Chugg. Married in Wales he and his wife began across the plains of the United States. This first wife, Mary Jeffries would perish during the trek and was buried near Chimney Rock in the Nebraska Territory. William had no children born in the United Kingdom. He married two  wives in Utah, each of his children being born in the Utah Territory, or in the case of his youngest Mabel Eliza in the state of Utah.

I have had the pleasure to correspond with descendants of William Chugg because of postings on the Johanna Chugg message board on www.ancestry.com, as well as a visit or two to and from some of these kin folk. My appreciation to their help in compiling (and correcting) my records. I have also learned I share other lineages with some of this line.

His children by wives Mary Mitchell and Eliza Barbara Fredrick, generation three, went on to parent a large posterity for William and hence, Johanna and Philip:

I have now put in what I feel confident is an accurate record of the third, fourth and fifth generations of Johanna Stanbury Chugg's family. Again. I chose this woman as she was the earliest generation in my pioneering Chugg family, I will continue to attempt to identify, learn about and keep a record of this family. It will be of no use if I do not share it, though. Can I help you in your Chugg research?

The Families Through Ann Chugg Oliver

Ann's children, thus Johanna's grandchildren lived their lives primarily in Wales, and within the Cardiff area. I knew little of these families and thought I might not be up to the research in Wales and England. (Perhaps I was correct.)

But I have found great stores in the records available, much of it pre-WWII. I cannot forget how, after I had started the Chugg message board on Ancestry.com I was reminded that Johanna did indeed have families of her children who did not emmigrate during that Utah pioneering period. I have tried to remain mindful of that. Even so I have many empty lines in my  research.

Let me share what I do have; apologizing for the inevitable errors that occur even as I try to corroborate my information.

Generation 3, 4 and 5 Through Ann Chugg Oliver:

Generations Coming Through Catherine Chugg Chappelle

When I began searching for that 'whole other' family in the Ogden city cemetery I also found there were colateral lines, especially from Catherine, John's sister. I would learn later that she had migrated to the Lehi area, adding to the richness of my heritage there (yes, I am one of those Kirkhams!)

The emmigration from Cardiff and Canton in Glamorgan, Wales, included the stonemason Arthur Bradder and his young family which included wife Mary Jane Chappelle, granddaughter of Johanna and who now is the subject of this post. The family traveled from Liverpool England aboard the ship Wisconcin, departing 19 Sep 1877 and arriving New York City on the 22nd. The number of LDS - Mormon immigrants listed is 482. Mary Jane and Arthur Bradder had two children with them on this journey: Alice Maude and Henrietta. Their first child, Evan John had died in Wales as a toddler of two. Bearing and rearing child in the 1800s was difficult, as it certainly remains today. Mortality in infancy and childhood was more common, if not frequent. Mary Jane would bear thirteen children, burrying nine as infants or in youth. The burried ones in Ogden are without markers, not uncommon when set against the hardships of pioneer life, and I have wondered if stones were for one's own children are too difficult for a stone cutter. Possibly, as well, is the cost of stones when one is struggling to develop one's business even as a stonecutter. I do not know the answers to these riddles I present myself, and really it does not matter as much as matters the fact I can and do go to that place of quiet repose and remember Mary Jane's babies.

Later, in Lehi Arthur did better in his vocation and we have stones of his work in public places as well as memorials in a cemetery.

Lines Through Esther, Phillip's Youngest Daughter

I have Esther passing away in 1946, possibley in Montpelier Idaho, where she was living at the time of the 1940 Census with her second husband William Nye. She had married a widower in James Samuel Lindsay with whom she had a daughter Irene Esther.

What I have seen and read of this part of Idaho aside from the absolutely beautiful vistas is the hard work of ranching and dry farming. But what good family and neighbors that makes!

..Max Brook Campbell (1923-1997)d Whittier CA
..sp Miss Shay


I have found a record for Donna Irene Campbell, daughter of Max Brook Campbell born and died in Los Angeles area, 1958-1970. Her birth record states mother's maiden name as Shay. I find no further record for this family.

I also have a name of a husband of Irene Lindsay, Charles Lunsford, for which I find no other record.

Line Through Johanna's Grandson David Rinal Chugg

I shared e-mail correspondence with Karol Ransom, daughter of Virginia Mae Chugg, who told me that Rinal was pronounced as Reynald early on. I have always thought it would have been as Rhine-aul' which shows one of the drawbacks of doing family history in your room. I should get out and meet these people I research! A good idea, lets do it. Lets meet.

David Rinal and his wife Sarah Ann Jacobson had a large family. Of the thirteen born to them eleven married. I have not located families for all these marriages. The two who died young, Basil E Chugg (1890-1891) and George David (1895-1896) were both born in Nounan, Idaho and died there as well.

Generations 3, 4, & 5 Through Philip, Continued

There are some names that when I come across them I think, 'this must be the family I'm working on.' It used to be that Chugg was such a name, even Kirkham. Over the years this has changed. Several lines of Chuggs are found in Australia (including two of Johanna Stanbury Chugg's) and even in Utah there are at least two lines of Kirkhams with which I can find no connection. Phillip Chugg's daughter Elizabeth married Douglas Hix in 1882, and while they were divorced I do not recall that his second marriage increased the number of Hix families significantly (the ten children that Elizabeth bore with Douglas Hix is a sizable family by itself). I still find Hix families that do not seem to match any of the Hix families I am researching.

Generations 3-4-5, Through Philip, Johanna's 3d Child

These are the next generations of Johanna's family, now down through her son Phillip and his wife Johannah Howell.

Philip had a large family, ten children with seven reaching adulthood. The last three were born in the United States, either in Cache Valley or Bear Lake County. Philip was hard working, whether as a laborer or farmer, but we know that automatically: could this pioneering citizen  have left the posterity he has if he were not.

A descendent, Karol Ransom contacted me about the spellings with one L or two in the name Phillip: simply to distinguish the father from the son. Alas I do not recall which, now, was to have one or two! But Karol, thank you for the contact and input.

Johanna's Family Through Elizabeth Chugg Harris

The Cardiff Branch of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints record of members shows the emmigration of three young women I believe to be granddaughters of Johanna. One is Elizabeth Wale. Also in that record I find William Wale and Arthur Bradder departing as missionaries. How I would enjoy visiting with these- as well as many, many others of the Chugg Families in which we share this rich heritage.

The next generations descending from Elizabeth Chugg and William James Harris settled predominantly in the southern counties of Idaho. I have enjoyed trips to and through this country, the village of Inkom late on a summer day, autumn at Soda Springs still sparkle in my memory, as does the dusty ride to Nounan.

Thomas Harris (about 1851) and Mary Harris (about 1853) appear to have died young. I find no records referring to them in adulthood.
