The property left to my mother was sold at public auction and she came to live with me and we used all our endeavors to make her happy. She often said to me, "Drusilla, do you know you are more comfort to me than all the rest." I asked her why that was, and she answered, "Because you always ask me what I want for breakfast or dinner or how to do any kind of work." I had never thought of that before nor had I thought of the principle of obedience planted within me. It was not to gain my Mother's favor. It was to show the reverence I had for my Mother from a child. She lived with us two and one-half years and was then called home to that God who gave her life, in the year 1834. My third child (Catherine) was born August 2, 1832 and was two years of age the day my mother was buried.

CATHERINE TABITHA HENDRICKS, daughter of James31 (Abraham12Henry1) and Drusilla (Dorris) Hendricks, born 2 Aug. 1832, near Franklin, Ky. She married 11 Aug. 1851 at Salt Lake City, Ut. WILLIAM THOMAS VAN NOY. He was born 13 Mar. 1827 in Pikes Co., Mo., son of Nathaniel and Margaret (Tinsley) Van Noy. He died 2 Mar. 1900 at Richmond, Ut., where he was buried. She died 1878-9 at Richmond, Ut. Catherine's early life parallels that of her sisters, Elizabeth and Rebecca. The early family history is given in the history of her mother, Drusilla (Dorris) Hendricks. As was stated in this history and that of Rebecca, they journeyed with the Mormons from Kentucky where she was born, to Utah. Catherine at the age of 14 on this final trip must have helped with the animals and with the driving of the oxen, inasmuch as her father was crippled from the Battle of Crooked River. William, her older brother, was gone from them fifteen months with the Mormon Battalion and did not join them until his arrival in the Salt Lake Valley, 14 Oct. 1847, ten days after the arrival of his family. In the Fall of 1851 Catherine was married. In the Spring of 1860, Catherine and her husband, her parents and her sister, Rebecca and her husband, Samuel Roskelley, and their brother, Joseph Smith Hendricks and his wife, all moved to Richmond, Ut. to make their home. It took ten days to make the trip by wagon; they arrived 28 Apr. 1860. They immediately began breaking up land. Here the remainder of their children were born. One cannot but be humbled by the indomitable strength and courage of families such as these, who left so much for the present generation. They were the parents of eleven children, the first five born at Salt take City, Ut. and the last six at Richmond, Ut.: [S36] Cooper, Brian, Henry Hendricks Reunion 2000 CD v 2.0., Red Book Pictures, James and Druzilla Family Bible.
