Life of William McDonald Devenport
 
Note* (by Marie Dean Speakman) William McDonald Devenport was the only member of his family (as child of James McDonald Devenport & Mary Hasty) to join the LDS Church. He recorded some family records in an old grain book and also did (or had done, I don't know which) considerable temple work for his family. He was baptized in Aug 1885, just 4 months before he married Sarah Jane Barker. Sarah's family was LDS.8

According to Myrtle Devenport Dean, Dora Elizabeth was the first person buried in the cemetery at Redmesa,Colo.

Note by Marie Dean Speakman: Someone evidently thought that Dora Elizabeth was married to Claude Roberts. Dora died at age 15, and I know she never married. She was a sister of my mother and mother told our family of her early death.

Burial*15 June 1862 City Cemetery, Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah, According to Doug Misner of the Utah History Research Center, the burial site was designated UK-1406 in the "Strangers" part of the cemetery.1,4,5 
Death*15 June 1862 Morrisville, Weber, Utah1,6 
Rebaptism1 September 1944 1 
Note For a long time, I thought I had found John Banks's family in the Colne Parish Registers. The only John Banks christened in 1800-1812 at the Chapelry of Colne was to a John and Betty Banks, weavers, of Foulridge Hall, baptised 1 Feb 1807, and born 29 Dec 1806, according to the register. However, I found this John Banks, living with his brother Richard, as a widower still at Foulridge in the 1851 Census. In 1850, John Banks was living in Utah and was in the Utah Census. He was not a widower, so this can not be the man. Thus, I need to search for John Banks in nearby parishes and in any non-conformist registers I can find. -GEB7,8

Excommunication*before 18 November 1858 Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah, "John Banks had been a very effective elder in the ministry in England, and for a time was associated in the presidency of the British Mission with Elders Reuben Hedlock (president) and Thomas Ward, 1846-7; but after coming to Utah (1857), he fell into intemperate habits, for persistence in which he had been excommunicated from the church, in November, 1858. Much depressed by this circumstance he appealed to President Young, and was restored to fellowship in the church by rebaptism, on the 18th of November of the above year. (History of Brigham Young, Ms., Nov., 1858, p. 1102)."6

Note One of the ablest and most eloquent local missionaries of the British Mission, John was born February 6, 1840 at Colne, Lancashire, England. He was baptized September 8, 1840 by Parley Pratt. During the following years he spent most of his time doing missionary work. In September 1847, he was appointed President of the Manchester Conference but before the end of the year his field of labor was changed to London, where he presided over the conference until 1850.
In 1850 John Banks emigrated to America crossing the Atlantic on the ship Argo which sailed from Liverpool January 10, 1850. He crossed the plains the same year and the following is in the Journal History of the Church October 6, 1850.
"The afternoon meeting held in the bowery (Grove) Lake City, Utah, was addressed by Elder John Banks, lately from England, Parley P. Pratt and Orson Spencer. Eider Banks the work in England had made marvelous progress. In London 2,569 souls had been baptized and thirty flourishing branches organized. He believed that a thousand Elders could be busy."
Practically no information is at hand relative to the early life of John Banks. After his marriage to Ellen Edmundson Kendal approximately 1835, six children were born to them.
Arriving in Utah, the family, after a brief stay in Salt City, located in Pleasant Grove in the fall of 1850—John and William H. Adams being among the first to settle in town. The first home was a wagon box located one-half mile along lane leading to American Fork. Here the first winter was The family then moved to the Grove where they lived two more still in the wagon box. In the meantime a log cabin was being structed in the lane and the family moved there. In order to themselves from the Indians, the settlers made a fort and once they moved into a cabin in the fort. This cabin was traded by for an adobe house just across the street from the present grove.
"The Banks family were no sooner settled in their new home than John was called to fill a mission in Indiana. He left in spring of 1853 and remained until the fall of 1856 when he was put i: charge of a wagon company reaching Salt Lake City in October that year. He arrived home with a horse and saddle, a wagon, a and a load of dry goods given to him by his converts. Similar of appreciation were given to him by the Saints in England. John Banks became so accustomed to being taken care of by Saints that when he was reminded by his wife that he was becoming [p.55]shabby he said, ‘When the Saints get tired of seeing me in these clothes they may get me some new ones.’ And he was often presented with new clothes from Salt Lake City merchants.
"Intellectually, John Banks was far above the average. He possessed remarkable powers as an orator. His preaching was not only entrancing but convincing. Many Saints gave him credit for their conversion. This wonderful gift was both a blessing and a curse to its possessor. A blessing because of the great good he was able to accomplish; a curse because, through it, he became idolized and spoiled. He expected the same patronizing treatment in Utah as he had received in England.
"Being more or less a stranger in Utah he had little opportunity to exercise his talents and became disgruntled. When Brigham Young offered him a position in Salt Lake City he curtly refused it. He later joined the Morrisites at Morrisville near Ogden, Utah, and was wounded when that group was called upon to surrender in the early summer of 1862. His wounds were not mortal but he refused medical assistance stating that his blood would atone for his sins. He was buried in the Salt Lake City cemetery but the exact location of his grave is unknown."

- Junius C. Banks18 
Anecdote* Minersville, Utah, Before Minersville was settled it was believed that a company of emigrants had camped under a big cottonwood tree down by the river. One of the women of the group was very wealthy and carried a great deal of money with her. Thinking someone might take it from her, she buried it by the river. Other members of the party became angry at her when she refused to tell where the money was hidden. They murdered her and buried her on the banks of the river. The money was never found, and it is said that she roamed up and down the river at night to protect her riches. Her dress was always black silk, and as she walked her petticoats of taffeta swished and rattled in the night.
John Banks saw her one night as he crossed the river bridge on horseback. He tried to catch her but when she leaped over a high barbed wire fence and disappeared, he became extremely frightened and upon arriving home could scarcely speak. Everyone who saw her became frightened, and each thought the woman dressed in black was surely a ghost. To this day the story of the phantom woman in black still persists.

Christening*25 February 1781 Gisburn, Yorkshire, England, There were two Margaret (Peggy) Harrisons in Gisburn around 1801. The other married John Barratt in 1802, so they both would have been near the same age. Only one baptismal record was found in Gisburn, this one. Also, her mother's name was Edmondson, which pretty much seals her as Ellen Edmunson Kendal's mother.2
