SOURCE: Our Pioneer Heritage Vol 1, Brigham Young His Wives and Family

Mary Ann, the second wife of Brigham Young, was always religiously inclined, her family was of old Puritan stock; and, she became a member of the Freewill Baptists and was also a Sunday School Teacher. Her study of the scriptures so engrossed her mind that she resolved never to marry until she should "meet a man of God", one in whom she could confide, and with whom her heart could unite in the active duties of a Christian life. Thus it was that she remained single until she was nearly 30 years of age.

In the year 1830, she prayerfully read the Book of Mormon loaned her by Thomas B. Marsh. After this she went to Southern New York where she and her parents were baptized. Mary Ann set out alone for Kirtland, Ohio, the gathering place of the Saints. Here she met and was married to Brigham Young and for 45 years was a devoted wife to him. She was also a kind and loving mother to his two little daughters by his first wife, Elizabeth and Vilate

Everyone of Brigham Young's wives loved Mother Young, as Mary Ann Angell was fondly termed. She was a mother to her husband's family; and courteous and obliging to all with whom she came in contact.

Mary Ann was skilled in the use of medicines and herbs. She was able to help many of the weary travelers on the trek of 1848. Bringing with her, seeds of many varieties, she was credited with planting many of the fine trees which grew along what was once known as Brigham Street. Her first home there was a little hut next to the "Log Row". Later, she made her home in the "White House" which was erected for her.
