Having lost his parents and younger sister when they tried to ford a river along the Oregon Trail, Jedediah Barstow decides to make his way to the Oregon Territory on his own. He is adopted by the Henshaw family, who allow him to travel in their wagon in exchange for his help with the daily maintenance work along the way.
