John Troxel Rhoades biography which includes his experience driving cattle to Salt Lake City in 1853, living across from Brigham Young and describing Young and his 48 wives going to church on Sunday. He subsequently drives cattle to Stockton, CA and later returns to Putnam County, MO via Panama and New York. He moves at various times to Troy, KS and finally settles in Forbes, MO, Andrew County.
