Daughter of Joshua Sawyer Holman and Rebecca Whitcomb Greenleaf
Married Brigham Young, 26 Jan 1846, Nauvoo, Hancock, Illinois
With so many Saints living in the Kanesville vicinity or passing through for six years, it is probable that the burial ground on a hill north of the Council Bluffs business district contains more Latter-day Saint graves than does the Winter Quarters cemetery across the river. In today's Fairview Cemetery, the high east end is where the Latter-day Saint graves were. No markers from the Kanesville period have survived. Hundreds of Saints were buried there.
