Sarah Harmon's Trunk




This is a picture of Sarah Harmon's trunk which traveled with her as she crossed the plains. Sarah was the wife of Oliver Harmon. This is the smaller of two trunks she had,, which is in the possession of Linda Guymon Lovell. The other one is owned by my Uncle, Elton Harmon. After Oliver died in Nauvoo, she married Elijah Cheney.

The lamp to the right was made by her grandson, Lorenzo Barnes Harmon.
