Biographical Note

James Henry Linford (1536-1925) and Zillah Crockett Linford (1839-1913) were the maternal grandparents of Luella Reddish Lear. Born in Gravely, Cambridgeshire, England, James Linford immigrated to the United States in 1861 after his conversion to the LDS church and serving nine years as a missionary in his homeland. He was married to Zillah Crockett Linford, also a convert and immigrant from Lincolnshire, England, in 1862. They lived in Centerville and Kaysville, Utah. In Kaysville James Linford served as mayor, trustee of the Eighth School District, justice of the peace, city councilman, and supervisor of streets. As a member of the LDS church, he was called to be the patriarch of the North Davis Stake in 1903. James and Zillah Linford were the parents of seven children: James Henry Linford, Jr. (1863-1941), Sarah Marie Linford Criddle (1865-1944), John George Linford (1870-1917), Zilla Elizabeth Linford Reddish (1872-1958), Mary Hannah Linford Layton (1875-1959), Maud Estella Linford Blood (1877-1940), and Edward Lorenzo Linford (1880-1948).
