History - Benjamin Franklin Knowlton Sr. spent most of his life in the saddle as a rancher, scout and frontiersman. He played an active and courageous role in the Mormon Militia during the Utah War. Settling in Skull Valley to ranch with his sons, George Washington Knowlton, John Quincy Knowlton & Benjamin Franklin Knowlton Jr., the family experienced the harsh, primitive, frontier conditions of life on the isolated Skull Valley frontier with few of the cultural, religious or social opportunities common to Farmington.
Benjamin and Rhoda and their older children were subject to more strenuous living conditions accompanied by fewer opportunities for cultural development than any of the generations of the family.
