Samuel Keele Pioneer History

Samuel Keele and Annie Elizabeth Hess
Samuel Keele was born 21 January 1816 in Bedford County, Tennessee to Richard John Keele and Nancy Eleanor McCullough, and married 27 March 1847 at Mt. Pisgah, Iowa to Annie Elizabeth Hess born 24 March 1829 to Jacob Hess and Elizabeth Foutz in Washington Twp, Franklin County Pennsylvania.

1842 Baptism

1843 July 3-5 “At a special conference of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, held at the grove, near the Temple, it was decided that the following elders go on a special mission to the following counties in the state of Illinois.” Samuel Keele to Jefferson, John Keele to Perry. (Times and Seasons, Vol.4, Pg.240.)

1844 January 25 Samuel Keele married to Caroline Walker by Hyrum Smith. (We do not know what happened to Caroline, whether she died in childbirth or what.) A Caroline M. Keele received her patriarchal blessing 25 October 1845 by John Smith. She was born 21 December 1825 in Randolph County, Indiana, the daughter of John Walker and Susanah. A John Walker, son of Oliver Walker, who marries Susannah Ennis in Randolph County, Indiana can be found on the Oliver Walker blog. I think this Caroline is Samuel's wife.

1844 June 27 Samuel Keele was a body guard to the Prophet Joseph Smith, and an eye-witness when lightning came from heaven and struck the man who attempted to cut off the head of the Prophet after the martyrdom.

Obituary of Samuel Keele

May 6, 1897

Samuel Keele departed this life on April 5, 1897 at Panaca, Nevada, one of God’s noblest sons. Samuel Keele, son of Richard J. and Eleanor Keele was born in Bedford County, Tenn. Jan. 21, 1816. His parents were farmers and he learned to till the soil. He heard the gospel and joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints at the age of 19. He moved to Nauvoo and became a zealous worker in Zion. He was intimately associated with the Prophet Joseph, being one of his body guards. He enlisted in the Nauvoo Legion, assisted in building the temple giving everything that he had then adding to this his labor. It may be said here that his possessions were always at the disposal of the church authorities. Brother Keele moved to Mt. Pisgah and was married to Annie Elizabeth Hess in 1849 and by hiring out as a teamster he was enabled to make the journey across the plains and reached Utah in 1857. Settled on Kay’s Creek where he remained for 2 years, moved to Farmington in 1959, built a home there where he remained but 3 years when he moved to Manti where he built another home to enjoy, but remained only 2 years and then moved to Fairview where he remained until after the Black Hawk War. He was a great peace maker among the Indians and a father to the needy. Brother Keele went as a volunteer to assist in the settlement of the Muddy Valley and go as far as St. George, when he was advised to come to Panaca, Nevada which place has been his home up to his death. Great blessings were pronounced upon his head and his testimony was that Joseph Smith was a true Prophet. He died with a full assurance that his offering was accepted. A few hours before his death he awoke from his sleep with a heavenly smile upon his face and related his vision of a dream. He saw Joseph and Hyrum and others and they informed him that his election was sure. Several times after this he was heard to say, “Death, sweet ‘O sweet”. He was the father of 12 children and has 34 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren.
