Jefff,

Not being a Mormon, this whole scenario is completely new to me also. My direct ancestor is George Davis, a brother of Comforts and my research through this site has thrown up a few generations of agricultural labourers in the Newent, Pauntley, Bran Green and latterly Ross areas, which I have duly recorded. I had a "loose end" with Comfort and her children though, so eventually got round to trying to locate her.

Now I'm just curious to see what more I can find out between 1841 (last time she appeared on a census) and her departure to the USA in 1849.
