Enter a personal reminiscence or story.
William, George, and Samuel Isom, all brothers, from England, came to Virgin City about 1863. William was married to Katherine Wolf, who came with him from England. Owen and Elizabeth, his father and mother, came in 1874 and they all moved to Mt. Dell. William and Kate raised a large family. Their sons, Will, John, and Sam, all filled missions, and Will and Sam both were bishops. George Isom married Alice Parker and moved back to Virgin City. He had a good education and was the first ward clerk of the Virgin Ward. He was the business manager of the mercantile organization during the “order”. He was a farmer and builder, and died in 1885, leaving a large family of girls and only one son. His wife was an expert needlewoman and she continued in the mercantile business until about 1900, when she took her family to be educated at the Brigham Young Academy in Provo.
