Spring has arrived and our thoughts should be on our summer activities and attending the Burridge Family Reunion. How are your projects coming for the auction?
The reunion is scheduled for July 10, 2010 at Riverdale Resort at Preston, Idaho. Carol and I are going up Friday night to stay in the R.V. park. We have reserved pavilion 1, and R.V. park #1. If our campsite is needed Saturday, we will need to move the R.V.s to the parking areas.
It is up to you whether you come on Friday night the 9th of July or just come on Saturday the 10th of July.
If you choose to come Friday night, you will need to reserve R.V. camping, tent area or motel rooms. You will be responsible for your own accommodations and cost. The

From Gar Elison
“I got some info on George Burridge while in England.. It relates to some of what Ella and Ann put in his history except it is from the point of view of James Bell, one of his associates in the church serving in the Malta Mission. I want to be sure we add this slightly different perspective to George's history as it further corroborates his service and faithfulness to the Church once he embraced it. The following is from the Autobiography of James Ferguson Bell pages 57-61 in the Church Archives and contains a history of the Malta Mission.
About the 20th or 21st of June 1852 George Burridge master tailor of 76th Regiment called upon the elders with “Voice of Joseph” which had been placed in his hands by one of his comrades in (-roly/soly barracks - not clear in the hand written version). He entered into an interesting and pleasing conversation avowing his belief in the first principles and after a few hours spent in this manner he and they knelt in prayer and he departing taking with him more of the publications. On perusing which he after an intermittent visit was baptized by Elder Obray on 4th July and confirmed the same day. On the following day Monday being invited by him Elder Obray visited him at his mother’s where he bore testimony to his wife and to several strangers the result of this and one or two more visits was that Hannah Burridge the wife of the above was baptized and confirmed on the 18th of July by Elder Obray, and has ever since proved herself a genuine Saint and an example to all Saints. Her husband has also proved his faith by his works coming forth nobly with his means and influence for the assistance of our brother and the furtherance of the Redeemer’s cause. On the 22nd of July in the same year he was ordained under the hands of Elder Obray to the office of priest. (The Star vol. 14 says on page 477 it was to the office of an elder. This is in error as he was ordained to the latter office afterwards on a visit to Britain and Scotland) This brother continued after receiving the Aaronic Priesthood to disseminate the principles of life among his comrades and the soldiers in several other barracks by means of conversation and the printed word until on the 25 of the same month just 3 days after his ordination after having accompanied Elder Obray to several barracks on this labor of love and being just ready to proceed to meeting he had gone but a few paces when he was called back by his orderly who had been authorized by the adjutant to summon him to his office. On proceeding thither he was told not to leave the barracks as the colonel wanted to see him. On this he and Sister Burridge returned to their quarters but very soon they were visited by the Sergeant Major and the Quarter Master who in the name of the colonel demanded all the Mormon books in his possession and putting him under arrest for introducing into the barracks an improper person. He demanded an hour to consider upon the propriety or justice in this demand but could discover in it neither the one nor the other; however he deemed it prudent to comply which he did after taking an inventory of his books reserving the Book of Mormon and hymn book which he determined to keep at all hazards and delivered up the rest on condition that they should not be destroyed. Soon afterwards he learned that the occasion of all this was a report made by Mr. Eyre and to the chaplain of the officers on this island to Major Gamble the company officer concerning the distribution of the works and the introduction of an Elder T. Obray among the troops; a report of the circumstances together with aforesaid reverend gentleman’s complaint was made to the colonel also. On the second day of his confinement he was visited by the Quarter Master one of the colonel’s counselors, who began to reason with him and to represent his conduct as improper stating that for aught he knew Elder Obray might be an American spy; our bother replied with politeness on which the terror of the court martial were intimated as the inevitable consequences if he showed such dauntless spirit before the colonel. He was told also that he could be punished for leaving the barracks too early in the morning. In reply our brother stated that he had frequently done so as it was a privilege to be allowed or supported by the officers of that regiment and others persons in his or a similar capacity. Also no objections had ever been raise against his doing so or attending Wesleyan meetings, nor against the distribution of other tracts by him, such tracts having been given him for that express purposed by an officer and his lady.
The quarter master argued that the present case was of a different nature and tendency as our religion was calculated to effect the loyalty of the troops, and to infect them with a desire to leave the service and proceed to America. Our bother started comprehending the nature of the prejudicial influence exercised against him on account of his religion, and knowing how unmerciful were the hands he had fallen into deemed it prudent to observe at east humble and respectful deportment leaving the issue of the event to providence. On the 3rd day he was brought before the colonel and his lawyers who reprimanded him with severity telling him that his conduct was unbecoming a man whose experience and character in the army was such as his had been. He was not allowed to say much in reply but was strictly forbidden to receive or to bring into the barracks any of the publications. Orders were given to the Regiment not to receive any such book and the non commissioned officers were instructed to do their utmost to suppress our influence and check our progress and in the course of a few days Brother Burridge’s books together with many others which had been collected from among the soldiers were brought by the orderly to Elder Obray. Our brother after suffering much inconvenience consequent upon 3 days imprisonment was liberated on 28th July at 12 o’clock.
Previous to his imprisonment he had applied for his discharge, this application he renewed on being set at liberty and eventually after being once more threatened with the deprivation of certain privileges he succeeded. So with wife and child embarked on board the steam frigate the 9 of September 52 not being permitted to obtain his discharge on the island lest he might still endeavor to propagate the gospel, arrived at Wallech on the 30th. Much of his household furniture was left behind which with his sanction was made available for the use of the mission. While in England he obtained his discharge and a pension of 2/1 per day for life. Soon after he proceeded to Aberdeen Scotland where 13 February he was ordained to the office of elder by Elders Macover and Noble and here our narrative leaves him for a while.

I hope you find this interesting and it fills in a few aspects Ella and Ann had not found. “

News From Gar
“We are now home from our mission and building a home in Provo. We have continued a mission call and will be working with the Church Archives in the Family History Library. We will be helping to track historical documents and encouraging people to donate their journals and histories to the archives. We began our orientation on the 28th of December. We are also looking to the possibility of going back to England later in the spring to see the friends we made there and to travel with one couple with whom we did lots of things on our P-days. We had two granddaughters born while we served the two years in the England Birmingham Mission - Olivia, daughter of Shawn & Janamarie Elison of Hillsboro, Oregon and Jill, daughter of Holly and Michael Stewart of Provo, Utah. We have spent time in Oregon and Provo getting to know them and enjoying the rest of the families. We just returned from sixteen days in Baltimore where our daughter, Megan, lives with her two children - Miles and Colin - and husband, Peter Vandre. This was a great time and we got to see the Christmas display at the Wash DC temple.”

Anita Steburg has decided to take a big chance. She started her own law firm, Steburg Law Firm, in San Jose, California. She specializes in taxes and estate planning. Ryan, her son, will have an original musical composition performed by his high school band at their end of year concert in May. It’s very unusual to have original student work performed during their high school years, so this speaks well of Ryan’s talent.
Shana Nute is heavily engaged in her own advertising company, Spitfire Advertising. She specializes in helping companies design their own logo, stationery, and promotional items. Her daughter, Brittany, was on the Fremont High School cheerleading team. They took second place in the February nationals held in Las Vegas. Her youngest son, 4 year-old Jaxson, is on a hockey team and a baseball (T ball) team. He goes to hockey practice from 7:30-9am on Saturday and then baseball from10-11am. He keeps trying to make baseball into hockey. He pretends that the bat is a hockey stick and the ball is a puck and tries to score in the 5 hole (hockey term for between the legs).

“Jake (Jessica’s husband), my sisters, Nicole and Lisa, my Dad and yours truly ran a 5k on the 13th of March in Boulder City, Nevada. My sister Nicole's hubby, Bartley, and his brother, Nathan, ran the half marathon! It was soooo much fun!
Back in December, my sister, Nicole, asked me and the rest of the family if we wanted to do this run with her. Gotta admit, I thought she was nuts, but after giving it some thought decided to go for it. I wasn't the best at training; I could run a mile without stopping, but usually just lost interest after that. So what I'm saying is, my sisters really had to push me to finish that last mile (that was the hardest mile I have ever run). I'm so glad they weren't in it to really race, cause they would have smoked me!
We three sisters linked arms as we ran towards the finish line and all finished with the time of 31:38, it was AWESOME! Jake left the “sista” pack and finished with 30:18. And my dad beat us all with a time of 30:09! WOW!!! My Mom, my oldest sister, Natalie, her son, Jackson, and my sister Nicole's girls, Bryn, Brook, and Bella, also ventured on this trip with us. They made an awesome cheering section!“
News from Brent and Kathy Anderson concerning some of the grandchildren of Randy and Raeleen Anderson Tennessee: Age 11 wishing he was 20. He still loves Lego's and transformers. He will be receiving the Aaronic Priesthood this June when he turns 12. He is excited to perform baptisms for the dead, collect fast offerings and serve the sacrament, and loves giving us attitude about church (ha). Tennessee is playing indoor soccer and has a posse of friends he likes to be with. Easton: Age 9 wishing he were age 9 and independently living on his own. It's hard to get Easton excited about anything, but once he gets involved he is the life of the party. He has the sweetest laugh and a very tender heart that he tries to cover. It always seems to shine but he doesn't want any attention drawn to it. Easton is also playing indoor soccer and also seems to be the ring leader of his friends. They all LOVE Easton. Kaiya: Age 5 and loving who she is. Life is fun and exciting. She loves to be with Mom or Dad and tries her best to obey rules. She is easy to please and loves to please others. She loves kindergarten and can't go one day without a play date with a friend. She is very patient through Sundays (no play date). She is a great eater and helps Mom around the house with Ever. Ever: She is 1 year old. She loves her family! She makes everyone smile and everyone smiles at her. We love to take her out because so many people are drawn to her. When she hears music she loves to sing. Her favorite snack is little pieces of bread. She is our baby bird.
