Biography

Charles Crismon is Notable.

Charles was born on 25 Dec 1805 in Christian County, Kentucky. He was the son of George Christman and Elizabeth Hagler. Charles died on 23 Mar 1890 in Lehi (now Mesa) Arizona.

From an article in Mormon News: "Charles Sr., joined the LDS Church in Kentucky in 1845, changing his name to Crismon from Christman at that time because his father didn't want his name going into "Mormondom." Crismon traveled west with the Mormon pioneers and was called in 1877 to colonize Arizona.

Arriving in the Mesa area, Crismon claimed a 160 acre homestead, including the 4 acres purchased by Mesa, bringing 3 of his five wives from Salt Lake to live there. In all, Charles Crismon, Sr. had 36 children and has at least 6,000 descendants today."
