Bodel Monson Hogenson - my Great-Great Grandmother

Bodel Monson married Niels Hogenson in 1871 in Denmark (they were both from Sweden).  They joined the church and came to the United States in 1880, settling down in Cache Valley, Utah.  She was one tough lady.....and an example of hard work, faith and determination.  Whether driving cattle, killing sheep,  butchering hogs or working the fields, she lived a life of sacrifice and honor.  I thank Edries Hansen for writing the notes from which I take today's video.
