In the 1840s he became interested in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and was baptized into that faith in 1846. In 1856 he and his wife Elizabeth Hutchinson Wadsworth; his two adopted children, James Wadsworth and Mary Jackson; his mother-in-law Mary Hutchinson; Mary's granddaughter Elizabeth Cotton; and his brother-in-law, Edward W. Hutchinson sailed on the Horizon with a large number of other Mormon converts and landed in Boston in May. They traveled by train to Iowa City, Iowa the terminus of the railroad in 1856. The plan was to go by ox-train to Salt Lake City in the Utah territory. Edward Hutchinson and Mary Jackson remained in Iowa, while the rest of family left Iowa City late in the summer of 1856 in the Dan Jones - Hunt Wagon Company. They were traveling behind the Martin and Willie hand cart companies which included over one thousand people walking and pulling carts the 1300 mile trek across the plains. Because of the late start they were caught in a blizzard in central Wyoming near Devil's Gate. Over 200 died in the cold and snow before rescue parties could arrive from Salt Lake City. The Hunt Wagon Company arrived in Salt Lake City in December. James' mother-in-law Mary Waddington Hutchinson died and was buried in the snow just west of Devil's Gate on November 11, 1856. James & Elizabeth got into a dispute with James' nephew, George Wadsworth, also an English convert and the real father of their adopted son, James. They had raised the child, now 8 years old, since he was a baby. The trouble escalated into a battle involving LDS Church officials and the adopted son was forcibly taken from them. James and Elizabeth were forced to seek help from the U.S. authorities including Chief Justice Eckels who had established his headquarter near Fort Bridger, during the time period known as the Mormon Rebellion in 1857. With the aid of Justice Eckels, James, his wife Elizabeth and their niece Elizabeth Cotton were able to escape from Utah and return to Iowa. The adopted son remained in Utah and was raised by his real father. James and Elizabeth Wadsworth remained in Iowa where he worked in the coal mines in Jasper County, Iowa. He died there in an accident in 1868. Elizabeth married Jonas Ainley and died in Jasper County, Iowa in 1892. Their niece, Elizabeth Cotton, who had planned to return to England, traveled onto Indiana with Justice Eckels, remained there and eventually married his son William S. Eckels. James and Elizabeth's adopted daughter, Mary Jackson, was married to Thomas Smith on board the ship Horizon just after they sailed from England. They remained in Iowa and began their family in Newton, Jasper County, Iowa. Elizabeth' brother Edward Hutchinson remained in Jasper County, Iowa and in 1857 married Elizabeth Storor, also a Mormon convert from England. *********************************************************
