Jacob and Nancy (Gunsaules) Conser
by
James D. Bish
Jacob Conser was born on his parent's farm in West Buffalo Township, just North of
Mifflinburg, Union County, Pennsylvania on February 20, 1818, near where both sets of his
grandparent's, George and Barbara (Fridley) Conser and Christian and Mary (Bensinger)
Kaup lived. Jacob, named after his Uncle Jacob Conser, was the first child born to his
parent's, George Jr. and Maria Catharina (Kaup) Conser. It seems that his parents either
lived on a farm with one of their parents or lived on a rented farm nearby one of their
parents at this time, early in their marriage. In either case, Jacob was the oldest of what
became a large family. Within six years of Jacob's birth, William, Mary, and John Conser
joined Jacob in the Conser household. Jacob's younger sister, Elizabeth, was born in 1826,
while his parents were preparing to move to a rented farm between Potters Mill and
Earlysville, (now Tusseyville) in Potter Township, Centre County, Pennsylvania about forty
miles West of where they then lived.
It appears that, Jacob's paternal grandmother, Barbara (Fridley) Conser, must have died
about 1825. At that time, Jacob's grandfather and Revolutionary War veteran, George Sr.
Conser, then 75 years of age, left his farm and moved in with his son, and Jacob's uncle,
Jacob Conser, whom lived in Miles Township, Centre County, Pennsylvania. This was only
about 10 miles northeast of where the younger Jacob's new home was located. Jacob's
parents probably moved to Centre County by April 1826 in time to prepare the farmground
for planting. While living in Centre County, other siblings to Jacob were born into the Con ser
household. Sarah was born in 1827, Amelia in 1828, George in 1830, and Susannah was
born in 1831. During this time, The family attended Emanuel's Church at Tusseyville and all
of the children born at their rented farm between Potters Mill and Tusseyville were baptize d
at that church.
In 1826, Jacob's uncle, Jacob Conser, decided to move from Miles Township in Centre County
west to Clarion County, Pennsylvania. This resulted in George Conser Sr. making a move to
live with his youngest son and Jacob's father, George Jr., who then lived close-by between
Earlysville (now Tusseyville) and Potters Mill, Centre County, Pennsylvania. From 1826 unti l
his death in 1828 George Conser Sr. lived with his son George Jr. and his family on their
Centre County, Pennsylvania farm. George Sr. died on the farm near Potters Mill and was
buried just a couple of miles west at "The Loop" or "Emanuel's Reformed Lutheran Church
Cemetery" at the north edge of Earlysville (now Tusseyville), Potters Township, Centre
County, Pennsylvania. The grave is currently unmarked although family tradition states that
George Conser Sr. is buried there and it can be proven that the George Conser Jr. family
were regular members of this church at the time of George Sr. death.
Only four years after the death of his father, and only months after the birth of his young est
daughter, Susannah, George Conser Jr. died suddenly on February 24, 1832, just two
weeks before his fortieth birthday, at his farm near Potters Mill. George Conser Jr. was
buried next to his father at Emanuel's Cemetery. Jacob Conser was only fourteen years of
age at his father's death. This sudden death stunned the family, as Jacob's mother, Maria
Catherine, then age thirty-two, was left alone with nine children between the ages of six
months and fourteen years.
At that time, Jacob, then fourteen years old, must have been difficult to control, and fami ly
tradition maintain that he ran away from home on occasion. As a result of needing more
adult male guidance in the raising of Jacob, in 1834, when Jacob was sixteen years of age,
his mother petitioned the Centre County Court to have James Potter become a guardian for
him so that Jacob could learn the carpentry trade by becoming an apprentice to Mr. Potter.
James Potter was a very close neighbor to the Conser family as listed in the 1830 Census. I t
seems that the other Conser boys probably sought jobs also when they reached the age of
handling work. Under the guidance of Mr. Potter, Jacob Conser learned about construction
and carpentry. Jacob's younger brother, John, later followed his brother, Jacob, as an
apprentice, probably to James Potter, in learning carpentry.
Meanwhile, Jacob's mother probably received some assistance from her parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Christian Kaup, at that time. It is unknown exactly where she lived between the time o f
her husband's death in 1832 and 1835. In 1835 Maria Catharina (Kaup) Conser married
again, this time to George Garrett. They were married on May 12, 1835 in Mifflin County,
Pennsylvania, the county just to the south of Centre County. Family tradition maintains tha t
George and Maria Catharina (Kaup) [Conser] Garrett lived in Pennsylvania until the early
1840s and they moved overland to Knox County, Illinois.
Always adventuresome and independent, it appears that young Jacob Conser was not
satisfied with his guardian and apprenticeship and fled to the frontier west in search of
opportunity. By 1838, he had made his way to the frontier area of Knox County, Illinois.
There he located near the boundary between Maquon and Haw Creek Township, just south
of the town of Maquon. The effects of the 1837 economic panic probably forced Jacob into
trying to find better opportunity on the Illinois frontier.
It seems that most of the other Conser family members, at least his parents and younger
siblings, followed Jacob to Illinois shortly thereafter. However, some of the family remain ed
behind in Centre County, Pennsylvania. Jacob's younger sisters, Mary, Elizabeth, and Amelia
each married young men from the Tusseyville area. Mary married John From, Elizabeth
married Joseph Keller, and Amelia married David Henney. These sisters of Jacobs all
remained in the Tusseyville area after their marriage. After Jacob's move to Knox County,
there appears to be a lot of continued movement by family members between the two
localities of Knox County, Illinois and Centre County, Pennsylvania. Jacob's mother and som e
of his other siblings eventually relocated in the Maquon area. This was not surprising as
Maria Catharina's parents and some of her children continued to live in Union and Centre
County, Pennsylvania area.8
Not long after removing to Illinois, Jacob Conser married Nancy Gunsaules in Knox County on
February 28, 1839. Nancy was born in Richland County, Ohio on August 31, 1822 to James
and Phoebe Gunsules later removing to Knox County, Illinois. Undoubtedly, Jacob used his
carpentry skills in providing a home for the young couple to live. He is also credited for
building one of the firsts saw mills and the first bridge south of Maquon across the Spoon
River in 1839. He built a more substantial bridge across the river the following year. Whil e
living in Maquon Township, Jacob and Nancy had three children, Manuel Gunsaules born on
December 19, 1839, John Andrew born on December 30, 1841, and Phoebe Catherine born
on February 19, 1845.
During the 1840s, the national government was exciting Americans about the opportunities
in the Far West. Congress passed the General Preemption Law in 1841, which permitted
settlers to "squat" on tracts of public domain, and Oregon suddenly became the land of
promise. Boosters began promoting the fertility of the land in Oregon Territory and in 1843
the first sizable covered wagon train traveled the "Oregon Trail" and arrived in Oregon
Territory's Willamette Valley from the Mississippi River Valley. This early trickle of immi grants
quickly turned into a flood. By 1845, when the first comprehensive Oregon Territorial censu s
was taken, more than 2,000 inhabitants lived in the region. That same year, the immigration
to Oregon increased as New York newspaper man, John O'Sullivan coined the term "Manifest
Destiny" claiming that it was the destiny of Americans to settle the continent from sea to
sea. As a result, a large stream of immigrants poured out of the Plains, crossing the Rocky
Mountains, to Oregon Territory. That year alone, it was estimated that over 5,000
individuals made the journey along the Oregon Trial. At the point, where the trail divide d to
go to California, at least two thirds of the immigrants took the route to Oregon.
Many farmers from Illinois decided to go west. Jacob Conser was among them. Jacob had
always been someone that was not quite satisfied by his whereabouts. This adventuresome
sprit earlier had led him to Illinois from his native state of Pennsylvania. After hearin g many
reports about Oregon, Jacob and his young family prepared for their journey to the west in
the spring of 1848. Probably in early April 1848, Jacob, Nancy and their three children,
eight-year old Manuel, six- year old John, and three-year old Phoebe left their home in
Illinois and traveled overland to St. Joseph, Missouri in final preparation for Oregon.
The Consers' probably crossed the Mississippi River near present day St. Louis and traveled
up the Missouri River to St. Joseph, arriving at that location during the last week of Apri l.
There, they began making final preparations for the long overland journey westward.
Necessary provisions for the journey usually consisted of 200 pounds of flour and 100
pounds of bacon for each person in addition to corn meal, dried apples and peaches, beans,
salt, pepper, rice, tea, coffee, sugar, a medicine chest, and other small items felt necess ary
for the family's six-month overland journey. It was also necessary for the family to take w ith
them plenty of musket caps, powder, and lead for the trip to aid in food and protection.
Family tradition maintains that the Conser family took with them overland their household
possessions, several yoke of oxen, two cows, and two steers.
Final preparations included the formation of a company of wagons to make the trip together.
It was beneficial to have a small group people traveling collectively along the trail. Fami lies
traveling alone left themselves open for hazards along the trail while large wagon trains
moved to slowly thus putting all at risk. Jacob Conser fell in with a company made up of 13
wagons and just over thirty individuals. Their entire overland company included: Jacob and
Nancy Conser with their three children, Manuel, John, and Phoebe; Joseph and Mrs. Miller
and their children, James, Jefferson, Charles, and Annie; David O'Neill and two boys,
Reverend J. Lionet and Father Lampfrit, David and Mrs. Huntington and their three children,
David and Mrs. Stone and their two children, George Hedger, William Smith, George A. and
Mrs. Barnes, L.D. Purdeau, Lawrence Burns, James Costello, George Wallace, Norris and
Elizabeth Humphrey, and Wesley Shannon.
On May 4, 1848 the company ferried all of its wagons across the Missouri River just west of
St. Joseph to begin the trek westward. Just as they crossed the river with their final wago n,
they met famed mountaineer and Oregon politician, Joseph Meek, and his companion,
George Ebbert, heading eastward. Meek and Ebbert were returning from Oregon Territory
where they informed the company about the massacre and murder of Dr. Marcus Whitman
and his wife along with fourteen other persons including Meek's daughter who was staying
with the Whitmans' by the Cayuse Indians at the Whitman Mission on November 29, 1847.
This news was very disheartening as the journey was going to be difficult at the least. Man y
felt that they now might get to Oregon Territory just to find them vulnerable to Indian att ack
at the end of the journey. Meek told the families, including the Conser family, that a gene ral
uprising with the Cayuse Indians was expected and that he was sent back to the east to
ask for government aid and military protection for the American citizens present in the
Oregon Territory. It was also recognized that any governmental aid would probably not
arrive until 1849 at the earliest, which would be too late for the Conser Family and other
emigrants in their company. The company realized that they were going to have to make a
quick decision about whether to continue westward or not as time was becoming more
critical. They were thought to have been the last company of wagons to head westward
that year and they all had heard the news of fellow Illinoisians the Donner Family and thei r
fate during the winter of 1846-47. One of the problems that led to the tragedy of the
Donner Party was that they made a late start from St. Joseph and the late start put them at
risk for the end of their journey on the trail. The Donner Party started just one week, o n May
12, 1846, later in the spring than the Conser family began their journey from St. Joseph,
Missouri. After considering all the information the company, including the Conser Family,
decided to go to Oregon.
After about ten days on the road, the company crossed the Big Blue River near present day
Marysville, Kansas. After crossing the Big Blue the wagons soon arrived at the Little Blue
River where they followed that river toward the northwest. It was here that the company
would see the last houses of white habitants until arrival in Oregon not including the hous es
associated with military installations along the trail. The Jacob Conser family traveled
alongside the Little Blue River for about 120 miles. It was along this part of the trip tha t the
emigrants saw many Pawnee Indians as they entered into present day Nebraska. Just
south of present day Hastings, Nebraska the wagon company left the Little Blue River and
continued northwest along Thirty-two mile creek. They continued along this path until the
arrived at the Platte River about eight miles east of Fort Kearny.
It was about June 1st when the company arrived at the Platte. There was quite a lot of
activity as the company began heading westward along the Platte River Valley. Two events
in the summer of 1848 led to some of the excitement in the area. The first involved Indian
hostility. This hostility was not aimed at the white settlers traveling through, but was an
intertribal conflict between traditional rivals the Sioux and the Pawnee. A number of raid s by
the Sioux against the Pawnee along the Platte Valley concerned many of the white
migrants, as there were concerns that this conflict might spill over against the white
encroachers. The second bit of activity along the Platte in 1848 was the initial building o f
Fort Childs, officially named Fort Kearny in 1849. This fort was being built at the head o f the
Grand Island to offer more protection to Americans moving westward on the Oregon Trail. As
mentioned earlier, the Conser wagon train would have been by this location about June 1,
1848.
Continuing their westward trek, the wagon train moved along the wide and shallow waters
of the Platte. As the company of wagons moved westward, they came across a large herd of
buffalo. This heard was so large that the lead team and wagon operated by L. D. Purdeau
was forced to stop as he was fearful of becoming run over by the herd estimated at about
3000 in number. As the herd passed by, Purdeau caught a straggling buffalo calf and it was
taken into the company. The calf was placed with a cow owned by the Miller family and was
taken as far as Fort Laramie where it was sold for five dollars. It was also during this pa rt of
the journey along the Platte that a gray mare owned by James Miller escaped and fled with
a small group of buffalo. Attempts to capture the mare failed. A greater tragedy fell upo n the
Conser family in this movement of buffalo; Jacob lost all of his oxen. In spite of this set back,
the family decided to move onward with only their two steers and two cows.
Throughout the trek, all male members of the company took night watch on a rotating basis.
Night duty included guarding against Indians, whom many feared of doing raids of supplies
more than actual Indian attack, and against any wild animal attacks or domestic animal
escapes. Near present day Brady, Nebraska the Platte divided into the North and South
Platte. The company still remained on the south side of the river that now flowed as the
South Platte. Near present day Brule, Nebraska the wagon train crossed northward over the
South Platte River. Then eighteen-year old pioneer James Miller remembered this crossing
as, "a very difficult undertaking, as the bottom was quicksand, and in stopping for a few
minutes, the wagons would settle down to their axles." The wagon train then went north
toward the North Platte River valley. Before descending into the valley they crossed throug h
Ash Hollow on about June 13th. This was the steepest decline that the company had then
faced. This allowed the company to descend into the southern valley of the North Platte
River. Here they followed the valley in a northwestward direction.
During this part of the journey, different members of the company bagged some buffalo
providing fresh meat for the emigrants. It was also along this part of the trip that firewo od
became extremely scarce. James D. Miller explained the resourcefulness of the company in
finding an alternate fuel source. "For some hundreds of miles all we had to build fires ou t of
was dried buffalo manure, called buffalo chips. We burned them in a hole in the ground,
about two feet long, eight or 10 inches wide and about as deep." It was also along this par t
of their travels that the emigrant passed the famous natural landmarks of Courthouse, Jail,
and Chimney Rock.
The most unforgettable event in this stretch of the trail was the contacts with Indians.
James Miller remembered, "We came to an Indian Village of the Sioux. There were a large
number of tepees and possibly 150 or 200 Indians. Before we got to their village, we found
that on each side of the road, for some distance, the squaws had stationed themselves with
either blankets or skins spread on the ground, asking us for flour, corn meal or anything w e
would give them. Some of the wanted powder, caps and lead, which we refused to, give.
Each wagon gave them something to eat, and we passed through and made our camp
about a half-mile from them. A trader there told us that if we would show the chief that we
had confidence in him, he would not let any of his tribe steal anything from us. We trusted
him and did not keep the guard on our stock that we had every night before we reached the
village. The next day my father, Joseph Miller, traded a span of horses to the chief fo r a span
or pair of common-sized mules. The horses were losing much flesh."
The company moved westward passing Scotts Bluff and approximately June 21st; the
wagon train arrived at Fort Laramie on the Platte. The wagon train was now into its seventh
week on the trail. After leaving Fort Laramie, Jacob Conser and the wagon train continued
heading west alongside the Platte River. Near present day Casper, Wyoming the company
ferried to the north side of the North Platte River. James Miller described the crossing, " on a
canoe ferry that admitted one wagon on a trip, and on this kind of ferryboat we transferred
all our wagons, and swam our cattle and horses."
The wagon train continued west now leaving behind the Platte River that they had traveled
so near for over a month. On about July 5, 1848 the company arrived at Independence Rock
on the Sweetwater River. Independence Rock had already gained a reputation as a registry
for the pioneers as many that came through on the trail stopped to carve their names in the
rock before moving on. This was an important landmark, as most emigrants felt that if they
arrived at Independence Rock by July 4th they would get through to Oregon without being
trapped with snow. The Conser wagon train was cutting this date very close.
The emigrants pushed on and by July 10th the wagon train Pacific Springs, the summit of the
Rocky Mountains. According to emigrant James Miller, "At Pacific Springs we took a days res t,
so as to be able to make a night drive of 40 miles to Green River. This drive was made
during the night on account of water, there not being any for man or beast until we reached
the Green River. On coming in sight of Green River, we came to the steepest places to go
down to get to the ferry that we encountered on our route. In order to hold our wagons
from going over on our teams, we had cut trees and fasten them to the hind axles and drag
them top-foremost. We found another dugout ferry, run by Mormons. We ferried our wagons
and swam the cattle and horses. The Mormons here told us that there had been gold
discovered in California on the American River at Sutter's Fort. We had no confidence in
Mormons for telling the truth to gentiles; so we concluded that they were telling us a fis h or
gold story, which we found later to be fact."
After passing over the Green River the wagon train progressed west. They moved just to
the south of the Bear Mountains in present-day western Wyoming. They then progressed in
a northwestward direction along the Bear River valley into present day Idaho. After a coupl e
days along the Bear River, the company came to Soda and Steamboat Springs near current
Soda Spring, Idaho about July 26, 1848. This was perhaps the most fascinating spot along
the trail for the emigrants. James Miller remembers the location as, "a quite a noted place
and a general camping ground for emigrants. This great wonder of a spring got its name
from its peculiar spouting about every 20 seconds. It would spout up four or five feet in
height and quit for 15 or 20 seconds. Some of our party thought it would be good water to
wash their hands and face in, but it did not turn out as they expected. There was a
substance in it of a tarry nature, which made it quite difficult to comb the hair, for it m atted
the hair together. Here we found a part of Whitaker's (wagon) train, and stopped on
account of a sick man who had died and was buried there. We concluded to stay two days
and give our teams rest. We were traveling at a serious disadvantage, ours being the last
train of the season of 1848 bound for Oregon, which was detrimental for our stock, for we
found in making a camp at the end of a day's journey, from 20 to 25 miles, we would have
to drive a mile or two out of our way to get good grass, which of course, increased the
distance that our teams had to travel. Companies in advance of us obtained good food for
their stock near the road, and so their stock fared much better than ours. About 1u miles
from this camp there were several soda springs, so we had all the soda water we could
drink, free of cost."
As the emigrants pushed toward Fort Hall on the Snake River they were also feeling the
difficulty of the journey. James Miller indicated, "Owing to the hot weather and dry road , our
feet began to get sore and caused slow driving. We had to make several night drives, on
account of heat and water. We were now compelled to yoke our cows and put them in the
teams to relieve some of our oxen." The wagon train reached Fort Hall about August 1st and
realizing that both, themselves and the stock needed some rest, they decided to rest their
for two days. They probably headed out from Fort Hall about August 4th. They had now
been on the trail for exactly three months, realizing that there was still a long road ahea d.
As the wagon train moved along the Snake River, the emigrants were well aware that this
area was inhabited by the Snake Indians, then considered a very treacherous tribe.
The Jacob Conser family and the rest of the emigrants did face an exciting moment with the
Snake Indians. James Miller recalled, " We camped on the east bank before crossing it (the
Snake River) the first time, and in the early morning when all the men and boys of the trai n
were out after the cattle and the women folk were preparing breakfast, about 40 dirty,
war-painted Snake Indians drove their ponies right into camp, among the wagons and fires,
which caused quite a commotion for a short time. We soon hurried in and got our guns,
those who did not have guns with them. We fully expected trouble, and we did not show
and white feather or fear of the red devils. They had scared the women and children. They
were more than saucy before we got to camp, riding around among the camp fires, pulling
back the front end or back end of our wagon sheets. But, when we showed fight, they then
wanted bread or something to eat, which we gave to the skunks, and in a short time they
left us."
Shortly after the encounter with the Snake Indians, the wagon train the emigrants crossed
north across the Snake river toward the Boise River at a place known as Three Island
Crossing. A few days later they made it to the Boise River near present day Boise, Idaho.
From there they traveled northwestwards until they reached Fort Boise about August 18th.
Fort Boise was located on the east side of the Snake River, presently on the Oregon and
Idaho border. It was at Fort Boise, according to James Miller, that, "We (the emigrants)
were informed that the volunteers from Oregon had been having some fights with the
Cayuse Indians, but that the Indians had asked for peace, which was entered into by the
governor and other officials of the Territory of Oregon. Although peace was declared
between the whites and Indians, we kept our lookout and night guards as before." The
news of peace with the Cayuse Indians must have been a relief for the emigrants. This was
something that they probably worried about throughout the journey after hearing about the
hostilities with the Cayuse Indians from Joseph Meek just outside of St. Joseph, Missouri.
After crossing the Snake River for the final time, the wagon train headed in a northerly
direction toward the Burnt River. On about September 4th, the wagon train reached the
Burnt River, near present day Huntington, Oregon. It had been four months since the wagon
train had crossed the Missouri River at St. Joseph. The emigrants must have been getting
anxious by this time to reach the Columbia River. After arriving at the Burnt River, the wa gon
train followed that river northward for a number of days. After a few days of following the
Burnt River, it took a turn toward the west and the emigrants separated themselves from
that river as they continued to head north toward the Powder River. After a couple of days
the emigrants reached the Powder River where they crossed continuing to go north.
After leaving the Powder river, the wagon train moved over a divide before heading into the
Grande Ronde River Valley. The Jacob Conser family and the rest of the emigrants made
their first camp in the Grande Ronde River Valley near where the present city of La Grande,
Oregon is located. That evening, one of the lighter moments of the trip occurred when
several Cayuse Indians approached the camp. James Miller later reminisced, "when they
came in sight on their ponies, they displayed a white flag to show that they were friends.
But they approached us very slowly. When they came up they made signs of being friendly,
and one of them, supposed to be a chief, had a paper with writing on it, which he handed to
my father (Joseph Miller). The Indian supposed it to be a fine report and recommendation.
My father, being the captain of our company, read the paper aloud, which was as follows:
Take notice emigrants, you will have to watch this damned Indian. He will steal anything
that he can get his hands on.
This paper was signed by John Dawson, and caused everyone who heard it to laugh, and
the Indians laughed also. The chief had to have the paper back to show someone else how
good he was. He was sure that the whites of palefaces had a good opinion of him."
The next morning, the Jacob Conser family moved with the rest of the wagon train out of the
Grande Ronde Valley northward crossing over the Blue Mountains. As they crossed over the
mountain pass, James Miller remembered making a camp at Well Springs, which currently is
referred to as Emigrant Springs at Emigrant Springs State Park. The springs, Miller recalle d,
"were springs of water coming out of the ground or black muck. This water was poor and full
of Alkali and was hardly fit for man or beast." After crossing the Blue Mountains, the
emigrants turned more westwardly toward the Umatilla River. They reached the Umatilla
River near present day Pendleton, Oregon. It was approximately September 18th when the
emigrants reached this point on the Umatilla. They continued to journey on the south side o f
the river until they reached present day Echo, where they crossed the Umatilla to head
away from that river in a westward direction toward John Day River.
