Susannah Louisa Stratton was born in Salt Lake City, but after the Mormon War, her family relocated to Provo, Utah. When Louisa was about 7 years of age, her mother moved back East; thus, Louisa was raised by her father's second wife Eliza Briggs Stratton. When Louisa's father was called by Brigham Young to settle the Dixie Mission, Louisa did not go with the family. She was a woman. At fifteen she knew how to keep house and cook, and how to take care of babies and children. Her sweetheart was a young man from Bristol, England: Henry (called Harry) J. Stone. The two of them were married in Cedar Fort, Utah, March 22, 1868, where they settled for a time. To them were born fifteen children: twelve of whom were still living when they celebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary in Teton City, Idaho, where they lived at that time (1918).
