Description Typescript of answers by Alice L. Richardson Gilson for a questionnaire filled out for Utah Works Progress Administration's "Pioneer personal history" survey. She was born in Missouri in 1847, and her family came west in 1853, passing through Salt Lake City on the way to California. Later they went to Austin, Nevada, where she married in 1867, and eventually the Gilsons settled at Nephi as its only non-Mormon family. Interviewed by Jack C. Young in 1938
