History - Catherine Stoker was a daughter of David Stoker and Barbara Graybill. She was born July 29, 1829, at Bloom. field, Jackson County, Ohio.

It was at Mt. Pisgah that Sylvanus met and fell in love with Catherine Stoker. They were married May 19, 1850, by a Reverend Marsh. Soon after their marriage, Sylvanus and Catherine started on their journey westward with a company under the leadership of Aaron Johnson.

It was the latter part of September when they reached Salt Lake City. They thought they had reached the end of their journey, but President Young appointed them to go on with others to settle the area known as Hobble Creek. It was the first week in October 1850, when they arrived at the place that was later named Springville. Winter was near and they had to prepare for the cold months ahead. Sylvanus, his father Charles, and William Smith were the first to take their teams and wagons and go to the canyon for logs for house building and fuel. Sylvanus and his father took up farming and chair making as a means of providing for their families.

It was here that Sylvanus and Catherine's first child was born on February 27, 1851. They named him John Riley. Sarah Ann, born September 20, 1852; Barbara Adlinda, born November 18, 1854; the twins, Sylvanus Cyrus, Jr., and Sylvester Silas, born April 17, 1857, and Catherine Melissa, born May 18, 1860. Four more children were born in St. George—Emma Tryphena, born July 19, 1862, and died October 10, 1864; Charles Franklin, born November 11, 1864; Luella, born January 1, 1867; and Oscar Willard, born March 9, 1870.

Catherine labored a great deal among the sick. Whenever there was sickness in the community she was called to help care for them. When the first Relief Society was organized, March 10, 1878, she was chosen as president, a position she faithfully filled until her death November 8, 1882.
