Gaskell Romney
Gaskell Samuel Romney (1871–1955) is regarded as a father of the Romneys, a U.S. political family. Romney was born in St. George, Utah, the son of Miles Park Romney〔 (Reprinted in 2005, ISBN 978-0-87480-838-4). (publisher's page on the book )〕 and Hannah Hood Hill.
Gaskell Romney moved to Mexico when his father helped to found the Mormon colony in Colonia Dublán, Galeana, Chihuahua, Mexico, in 1885. The Romney families lost their holdings in Chihuahua during the Mexican Revolution and in 1912 Romney moved back to the United States.〔 〕 Eventually he was reimbursed by the Mexican government for some of his losses. He married in 1895 to Anna Amelia Pratt. Romney was the father of six sons and one daughter: Maurice, Douglas, Miles, George W. Romney, Lawrence, Charles and Meryl. Gaskell himself was a candidate for County Commissioner 1931 as a Republican. He died in Salt Lake City, Utah, on March 7, 1955 and is buried in Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park in the city.
==Extended families==
A number of Romney's descendants have become prominent in U.S. politics. His son, George W. Romney, was a two-term governor and a presidential cabinet member; his grandson, Mitt Romney, ran for the 2008 and 2012 Presidential elections. Through Romney's wife, there is an ancestral link with renowned early Mormon leader Parley Parker Pratt. The Romney clan is also linked by marriage to the Smith Family, the Matheson Family, and the Huntsman family. The Pratt family dates back to the 17th century in Connecticut, originating with William Pratt who served as a representative to the colonial legislature of the state for 23 terms. Miles Romney, patriarch of the Romney family, immigrated to the United States from Dalton-in-Furness, England, in the 1840s. Aside from politics and government, their legacy extends into other professions.
