RESEARCH_NOTES:
1. The 1856 Utah Territorial Census was taken because Utah was trying to get statehood to avoid some of the problems that later came. As a result they wanted as many people as possible and frequently included names of everyone in a family without regard to whether they were living or dead. As a result, some of the people listed with the family may not actually have been in the household in 1856. The Adair and Mangums listed included the following heads of households in the Provo and Payson City area: George W. Adair, James Mangum, Joseph Adair (wife Rebecca), Samuel Adair, and Thomas Adair.

BIOGRAPHY:
1. From 24 Feb 2002 website "Mt. Pisgah Mormon Settlement": Mount Pisgah is the site of a temporary Mormon settlement located in Union County, Wouthwest Iowa. At present, a monument, a kiosk and a county park can be found in this area. Each year hundreds of people visit this peaceful sight, some looking for family history, some just enjoying the beautiful view across the Grand River valley. Mt. Pisgah was settled by the Mormons during their trek from Nouvoo to Utah in 1846. The Mormon Trail in Iowas passes through Mt. Pisgah on its way from Garden Grove to Council Bluffs (Winter Quarters). The Mormon Church purchased a small part of what was once the Mt. Pisgah cemetery and in 1888 erected a monument to those who died here. It is inscribed with the names of some of the people who were buried at Mt. Pisgah. In preparation for the 1997 Centennial Celebration, the Mormons enhanced the appearance of the park with new concrete, wrought iron rails and benches." Among related names shown:
-"Rebecca, Jemima Mangum, William Jefferson, and Ezra T.B. Adair"
-"William P. and Lane Ann Mangum"
