An exemplary pioneer of unusual physical strength and stamina.
Baptized in the Kirtland era, where he moved and became acquainted with the Prophet Joseph Smith, served several missions and moved to Far West, Mo. He fought in the Battle of Crooked River, where Captain and Apostle David Patten was killed and Bro. Rich took over to lead the Saints to victory. He then followed the Prophet to Nauvoo and with President Young west to Utah.
