Conversion Story:
In 1834 early Mormon missionaries taught them the gosple. 14 year old Emmeline (thier daughter) was the first baptized in February 1834; John was baptized 23 March 1835; Nancy Ann and daughter Jane and her husband were baptized in September. Eventually the entire family joined. They soon joined the Saints in Caldwell County, Missouri and suffered the violence and mobbings there. John Buchanan was one of the 56 elders arrested with the Prophet Joseph in Far West and taken to Liberty; after several weeks he was released with most of them and was driven with his family from Missouri to refuge in Illinois.
