The early history of Stephen Hales, Jr., parallels that of his brother, Charles Henry Hales. He was three years younger than Charles Henry and until his marriage shared in all the vicissitudes of the family group as they journeyed from place to place. A son of Stephen and Mary Ann Hales, he was born in Rainham Parish, County of Kent, England, in 1820.
His marriage took place while the family was living in Quincy, Illinois. His wife, Eveline Lydia Carter, daughter of Simon Doget Carter and Lydia Kenyon, was born September 24, 1821, at Benson, Rutland County, Vermont. Their first child, Mary Isabella, was born October 29, 1843, but died February 14, 1844, at Nauvoo, Illinois.
March 29, 1845, nine months after the martyrdom of the Prophet, a son, to whom they gave the name Joseph, was born to the young couple. Preparations were begun for the trek across the Plains, but were marred by the death on October 5, 1846, of Stephen Hales, Sr., who was buried at Fort Madison, Iowa.
Stephen Hales, Jr., his wife, Eveline, and son Joseph journeyed to Garden Grove where other members of the Hales family were engaged in procuring food and obtaining equipment for the journey to the Rocky Mountains, Here at Garden Grove, Henry William Hales, youngest son of Stephen, Sr. and Mary Ann, married Eliza Ann Ewing on May 19, 1850, leaving the widow, Mary Ann, alone. She now married William G. Thompson, a widower with four sons and a daughter. The Hales and Thompson families, along with others, chose to make the westward journey under the leadership of a Captain Walton. He was not a member of the Church, but was an efficient leader. They left Garden Grove May 17, 1851, but had gone only a short way when mother Mary Ann Hales (now Thompson) died. They buried her at Ancient Bluffs, Reins County, Nebraska, near the Platte River. The exact date of her death, other than 1851, is not available.
The company arrived in the Valley September 24, 1851. Stephen and his wife Eveline and family made their home in Salt Lake City, but some of the other family members journeyed on to Bountiful. While they lived in Salt Lake, five more children were born: Henry, January 24, 1852; Eveline, January 3, 1854; Orlando, August 25, 1857; Frank, September 12, 1858; Mary Ann, April 22, 1861.
December 23, 1851, three months after their arrival in the Valley, Stephen married as his second wife Henrietta Keys Whitney, a widow with one son. Henrietta was born December 25, 1828, at Pike (now Piketon), a suburb of Waverly, Ohio. Her first marriage was to Alonzo Whitney, by whom she had two sons. One son died, and shortly after the birth of her second son, Samuel, her husband died. They were making their home at Milford, a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio, but after joining the Church, moved to Nauvoo, Illinois, where Alonzo's death occurred. In January 1846, she married Presiding Bishop Newel K. Whitney as a plural wife. He provided a way for her to come to the Valley. She and her son arrived September 24, 1847, in the Abraham O. Smoot "hundred," George B. Wallace "fifty." Bishop Whitney and his family arrived in 1848 but he died September 23, 1850, leaving Henrietta a widow a second time. The following year she married Stephen Hales and eventually bore him four children.
Stephen located his wife Eveline and her family in South Bountiful. His second family remained in Salt Lake.
In May 1865, Stephen left Salt Lake City to fulfill a mission assignment in Great Britain. While laboring in London Conference he was privileged to spend much of his time in Kent County, where he sought out his relatives and preached the gospel to them. He also assisted with the conference records and in his mission diary mentions playing the clarinet and fiddle where he found Saints possessing such instruments.
By trade Stephen was a carpenter, but he also produced some artistic carvings. It is thought that he assisted with the carving of the wooden oxen for the first font in the Nauvoo Temple. Later he assisted with the erection of the Salt Lake Temple.
October 28, 1881, Stephen Hales died at his home in the Sixteenth Ward. His wife, Eveline Lydia, continued to reside in the South Bountiful Ward until her death August 18, 1898. Henrietta spent the last years of her life in Kaysville, Utah, caring for two of her granddaughters. She died February 23, 1907, and is buried in the Kaysville cemetery. — Nina F. Moss
