description: The Beviers were baptized in 1846. In October 1847 Hiram P. Brown and Hannah A. Barker were married by Elder Beneworth at Fulton. On February 20, 1849 Hiram P. Brown reported in his missionary letter that John E. Page came to minister. They organized a branch in Porter with brother Nathaniel Foster as presiding elder and Barker clerk. They ordained four elders, one priest and one teacher. Hiram taught school at Koskonong. James Blakeslee and Jared Carter held missionary services in 1866 and Samuel Powers held monthly sacrament services in the homes.
