They would practice the principle of plural marriage when William married Eliza Barbara Frederick 3 June 1880. Their deaths would occur: William, 17 Aug 1924; Mary, 16 May 1893; Eliza, 30 May 1936. All are buried in the Providence City Cemetery.

Madden (1858-), a daughter born and died 1860 and William Chappelle (1862 - 1922). All were born in Cardiff, and I do know of Catherine, Mary Jane and William having come to Utah.

John Chugg
Number One Son, John was born 19 Mar 1819 in West Downe, Devonshire, England. He married in Ilfracombe 4 Sep 1844 Elizabeth- Betsy- Lovering who was born 21 Apr 1821 in Colbridge, Devonshire. She was daughter to George and Jane Butler Lovering.
Between 1844 and 1865 they would have eight children. Everyone would live to adulthood and see Utah. Betsy, alas would be here only a short time before succumbing to obstructed bowel 19 Aug 1872.
With a family still fairly young, John wed a second time 19 October 1874, marrying Hannah Lee, an immigrant from East Mersea, Essex, England, the daughter of Samuel and Hannah Chasey Lee. This family would include 7 children born between 1875 and 1888. John and Hannah built a farmstead in Weber County and when they died, 1903 and 1924 respectively, they would be burried in the Ogden City cemetery.
The children of John and Betsy were Eliza C. Butler, George William Chugg, John Henry Chugg, Mary Elizabeth C. Pratt, Jane C. Frodsham, Joseph Chugg, Sarah C. Culley, and David Chugg.
The Children of John and Hannah were John Samuel Chugg, William Cornelius Chugg, Moroni Chugg, Hannah Chasey C. Berrett, Zina May C. Orton, Victor Chugg, and Lilly Adell C. Jones Joyce.
Leila Chugg Heslop, writing a history of the Harrisville or Farr West, Utah Ward provided me with much of my early information. A recent book, Ogden Pioneer Forts lists John Chugg as an early resident of Bingham Fort. This book was compiled by Joyce B. Maw.

And so, the questions
My Chugg PAF- Personal Ancesteral File- begins with my third great grandfather John Chugg. As this is a story of a family coming from his mother, Johanna Stanbury Chugg, I will go back one generation and then follw the descendancy chart from there. Johanna came to Utah from Wales.
The Chugg family had moved to the Cardiff area in Glamorgan for work. Much of the work they found was in coal mining and railroads. I imagine someone standing on the windy north coast of Devonshire wondering if there would be work up there, beyond the treacherous sea in Wales. Had the farming in the Downes ceased to feed the large family? Were they in the younger branch and so in need of income or autonomy? As families will sometimes experience, had there been a falling out? Was this the adventure long dreamed but now a possiblity that could not be missed.
Chuggs had been in West Downe, East Downe, Mortehoe, Sherwill, Berrynarbor, Combe Martin, and Ilfracombe in Devonshire for many generations. As had been Stanberrys (Stanbury).
Philip Chugg married Johanna in December of 1818. Of their childhoods and early lives together I have only learned little. In fact what I know hardly bears my telling. I learned the most from Leila Chugg Heslop in her history of the Farr West/ Harrisville ward history that was produced in the 1980's.
I believe it was in Cardiff or in Canton, Wales that the family first heard the preachings of LDS Missionaries. The Mormons. Could it have been that they had taken the lessons the missionaries provided while still in England, and had been ostricized? Whatever the chain of events the Philip Chugg and family moved to Wales. Some daughters, already married remained in England, And sons, my great great great grandfather among them, also married went with.
Philip Chugg would remain in Canton, Glamorgan, Wales, his death coming in 1866. I also have a death date of 1859; either date would have Johanna coming to America- to Utah as a widow. She would die in Cache County eleven years later, 1879 and be buried in the Providence City Cemetery.
I have related the approximate dates of the staggered immigration. Where possible I will be specific as I relate the story of each family of Johanna's children.
