Listers:

"Across the Plains in 1844" by Catherine Sager Pringle (c. 1860)
http://www.pbs.org/weta/thewest/resources/archives/two/sager1.htm
is her account of making the trek to Oregon.  On the way she gained
a sister, and lost both parents.  She was taken in by the Whitmans,
and her two brothers were killed in the Whitman massacre.

She is related to me by marriage.  The story is good reading.
