Nearly 160 years after the massacre of a wagon train in southern Utah, the pioneers' descendants got their first glimpse of what is believed to be their gravesites. Descendants of the Mountain Meadows Massacre victims gathered Saturday about 35 miles southwest of Cedar City to look at piles of rocks. Bassett was back there again to lead the descendants, some of whom came from across the country, around the sites. The Baker-Fancher wagon train from Arkansas was heading to California when it stopped in the meadows on Sept. 11, 1857. "The massacre itself was one of the most sort of important footnotes of our contribution to America's westward expansion," Fancher said.
