Ancestors







While at the Pleasant Grove Utah cemetary for the funeral of Connie's Grandmother, we stopped by the graves of our ancestors, Shadrach Ford Driggs and his son and daughter-in-law Benjaman and Olivia Pratt Driggs.

We knew and had been there before when we found Shadrach's name in our Driggs book. We learned that Connie's ancestor and Shadrach Driggs served on the original Pleasant Grove City Council together. To find the graves, we just roamed the cematary until we found them.
