Mormon Pioneer photo of twins-Kate and Bryon Cazier

During the pioneer history of Nephi, Utah, some of the familiar names were the Foote's, Sperry, Hoyt, Heywood, Tolley, Sperry, Jackson, Jones, McCune, Ord, as were the Cazier's, of whom we speak of today. This is an original photo of  Kate and Bryon Cazier. Although we don't know there age at the time of the photo, we know they were twins. We also know their mother is Elizabeth Ann Jones(born on Feb. 7, 1863), who married John "H" Cazier on Mar 1, 1882. Information had been past down through the generations, that Brigham Young directed good farmers and their families to Wells, Nevada, to help Mormons get a good start there, and that is where these children were raised. The father of Elizabeth Ann Jones is Edward Jones(the first), whose headstone is next to first wife-Hannah Pendlebury, and his second wife-Martha Jackson, who survived the Martin Handcart pushing contest of 1856 and helped each other raise two sets of Jones family.

  1. My great grandmother's name is: Orsena Cazier she married Clarence Warner both lived here in Nephi.. I believe she was born in 1899? I wonder if the twins are related to her?
