------
From his brother Peter's Journal:::
""until the fall of 1848 when my Father Peter Gillespie emigrated to America. He landed in New Orleans in the State of Louisiana where he labored to accumulate means to send for my Mother and her children. During his absence, my oldest Brother William Gillespie died in the City of Glasgow, Scotland of Black Rose in the head; which was a great calamity to our family. He was a good and faithful Elder in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He left a wife and two children to mourn his loss.""
