Biographical History
Sarah Studevant Leavitt was born in the town of Lime, New Hampshire and was married at the age of 18. She often experienced visions and spiritual manifestations. Her experiences led her to join the Baptist church in order to be baptized by immersion. Her sister-in-law, upon being converted to Mormonism, gave Leavitt the Book of Mormon and other literature to read. Through her reading Leavitt came to believe in Mormonism and converted. Soon after this she and her family journeyed to Kirtland, Ohio. They would eventually move a great deal, from Kirtland to Nauvoo, Illinois; then on to Council Bluffs, Iowa; and eventually to Pine Canyon, Utah.
Sarah Studevant Leavitt was born approximately 4 October 1798 to Lemuel Studevant and Priscilla Tompson in Lime, Grafton County, New Hampshire. She married Jeremiah Leavitt 6 March 1817 in Vermont and then moved with him to Canada. Sarah and her family were later converted to Mormonism. They moved to Kirtland, Ohio, and then to Nauvoo. Her husband died at Mt. Pisgah in 1846. She moved on to Utah, settling in Tooele. Sarah left Tooele due to Indians stealing cattle. Her history does not record where she next moved.
