The following information on Sarah Elizabeth Kiesel is from a history of her father, written by Nila D. Kiesel,
"We lost another little girl. This one would have been named Sarah Elizabeth. This was the beginning of trouble and the separating of lives. In early August of 66 Alton collapsed on the kitchen floor. He was taken to Mount Pleasant Hospital where it was found he had practically no blood. Friends rallied and blood was donated for his survival. He was at Mount Pleasant for 6 days, then he was sent into Provo Hospital when he underwent tests for 9 more days. It was discovered that his one kidney had not been working for at least three years. Another Doctor declared that the ulcer he had was the largest one the doctor had ever observed. Operation was needed. One month later we returned but Alton stated that things didn't feel right and he returned to Manti. While at Provo Nila stayed (and Arthur) at Linda and her husband's place in Orem... Within a week pain and infection forced Alton to be operated on at the Mt. Pleasant Hospital by a Doc. Gleeves.
This is a more correct account of the dates from those troubled times. We returned from the Provo tests on the 15th. The 16th Nila washed. The 17th She went into the hospital for the delivery. The morning of the 18th the dead baby girl was delivered. Approximately 5 weeks later Alton was operated on. His cancerous Kidney removed. He improved after this and remained in this world for 15 more months."
