Born in LaHarpe, Illinois to Abraham and Elizabeth Yarbrough Coon, she had crossed the plains in 1850 In Colonel ( William ) Walls company. She was then only six. But, she remembered a little of Illinois and Iowa before the trek and how once they had climbed a tree to get away from Garner's bull. Aunt Millie ( Permelia ) was up the tree and Uncle John (Coon) handed the others up one by one then got up the tree himself.

It was a very cold winter morning and the Indian stood so still that he appeared to be frozen. Grandfather went over to him and spoke but he did not move. Then, taking the Indian by the arm (Grandfather) shook him. Finding that he was alive, he was taken into the house and given a chair by the fire while Grandmother prepared something for him to eat.
