Peace Maker of the west for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
A convert to the early days of the Church, he moved to Nauvoo, and then to Tooele, UT. Here he became an official representative to the Native American tribes for the Church under the direction of Brigham Young. It is impossible to count the number of lives saved and battles prevented through his peace making abilities to these people. He eventually moved to Santa Clara, later to Arizona and then New Mexico. He is regarded today as one of the greatest pioneers in Church history.
