NN Rollins

Baby Rollins is the nineth of ten children born to James Henry Rollins from New York and Eveline Crissy Walker from Indiana.

As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the family was living in San Bernardino, California when Brigham Young called for all Saints to come to Utah. They joined the Amasa M. Lyman / Charles C. Rich Company to travel East to the Salt Lake Valley.

Exhaustive travel conditions, disease, injury, lack of food and medicine, premature birth, and extreme weather were some of the greatest threats to pioneers. Cholera, a bacterial disease caused from contaminated water, infected many of the travelers. On this particular trek, the Saints were attacked by Indians. On that same day, Eveline gave birth. It is unknown if the child was a boy or girl or the burial site.
