John Sulser, oldest child of Casper and Katherine Steidler Sulser (Sulzer), was born March 28, 1846 at Bern, Switzerland. He married Mary M. Keller November 13, 1876. Died December 26, 1914 in Midway.
Mary Keller Sulser was born October 10, 1859 in Weinfelden, Thurgau County, Switzerland, a daughter of Adam and Anna Barbara Enz Keller. She died in Midway April 7, 1944.
John came to the United States in 1852 with his parents and at the age of 10 went to work for a man in New York in grist mill. His parents, in a rush to come to Utah with the Joseph Young Handcart Company, left New York without notifying John. Five years passed with no word from his parents, so when he heard of the California gold rush he decided to come west. He got as far as Cheyenne, Wyoming, and worked on the railroad for two years to get to Salt Lake.
Shortly after he reached Salt Lake, he noticed a man on the street who looked familiar to him. He approached him and said "Hello, Dad." The man said, "I'm not your dad." John said "You are my dad," to which the man replied "Is that you, John?" So, on the streets of Salt Lake they were reunited after a seven-year parting.
In 1863 John came to Midway at the age of 18. He served as a guard in the Black Hawk War.
Mary came with her parents from Switzerland as a convert to the Church. Throughout her life she was devoted to the Church, and did much temple work.
