Preface Stepping Stones for Generations Stories of Conversion and Faith They, the Builders of the Nations Blazing trails along the way Stepping stones for generations Were their deeds of everyday Building new and firm foundations Pushing on the wild frontier Onward, onward every onward Blessed, honored Pioneer (Hymn #36)
On looking back over the Freestone - Dana genealogy I realized we have a wonderful history in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Every line starts way back in the beginning of the Church. I thought it would be interesting to research each, and extract their conversion story and stories of faith, and put it in a book for you, the descendants of these great pioneers, to read. Then you can realize what a chosen heritage you have. So here are their stories of faith and conversion. For an explanation of how you are related, see the pedigree chart in the back of the book.
