Married Mary Elizabeth Lott, 12 Nov 1848, Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah
History - Abraham Losee, one of the early pioneers of Utah, was born in Holderman Township, Upper Canada, September 6, 1814. He joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints at an early date and was with the main body of Saints throughout all their persecutions until their removal to the Rocky Mountains, being intimately acquainted with the Prophet Joseph Smith.
In the year 1848, he drove a team across the plains for Bishop Whitney, and was married in the same year, after reaching Salt Lake City, to Mary Elizabeth Lott. She also had been with the Saints in the East, and had lived with the Prophet's family and worked for him when 13 years of age.
After having worked on the Church farm at Salt Lake City for two years, he was called to remove and settle in Utah Valley, by Brigham Young. Bringing his family with him, he came and lived in what is now known as Lehi field, for the first winter in a covered wagon, having four men boarding with him. From then until his death he remained a citizen of Lehi and served as a City Councilman for several years.
Having reared a family of eight, two boys and six girls, he died October 25, 1887, being 73 years old. His wife died in May, 1888, at the age of 60 years. They remained faithful church members and progressive citizens until their death.
