| JOHN S. HUMPHREYS, a MORMON SHOOTER AND CLUBBER,
was a private and fifer in one of the militia platoons in Cedar City;
Born: 1826, England. |
| The source who identifies Humphreys as being at Mountain Meadows was William Bishop, John D. Lee's attorney. Lee himself does not mention Humphreys in any of his statements. Since Bishop's "list of assassins" virtually always follows Lee in identifying massacre participants it is possible that Lee advised Bishop in their talks that Humphreys was at the site. |
| Information on the above Mormon Shooter and Clubber, was obtained from the following: The 1857 Iron County Militia Project, Mountain Meadows Massacre Assassins, Bagley, Lee and Shirts. |
