Henry and Martha Haynes moved from England to Utah around 1880 help!

Hello, I am a new member to this site and hoping that someone can help me find some information.
On my mothers paternal line of the family...the Haynes / Haines I have found that Henry 1838-1914 born in Warmington 
and his wife Martha 1833-1914 moved from Bilston Wolverhampton England.
along with some if not all of their children to Nephi, Juab, Utah, USA. 

It seems such a massive leap to me for this family to make and I am wondering if anyone knows anything about them? 
As far as I know they would have been ordinary working class people... 
in the 1861 census Henry aged 28 was a labourer, so how did they manage financially etc to move all that way? and why did he move? 
Because of the Utah and Salt Lake City connection on many of their deaths 
I was also wondering if they became followers of the Mormon faith and subsequently moved for that reason 
(but this is just a guess as i really dont know )

the children that show a death in the USA names were: 

Noah Haynes 1855 - 1927 
Eliza Emma Haynes 1864 - 1920 
Hyrum 
Haynes 1869 - 1953 died in Las Vegas 
Agnes Haynes 1871 -1934 
Orson Haynes 1876 - 1909 
Edith Kirton Haynes 4 june 1883 -1969 
I also found it interesting that the last child had a middle name 
which is the same as her grandmothers maiden name! 

Edith was the last child as far as I can tell and 
the only one actually born outside of the Uk 
therefore I am guessing that they moved somewhere between 1876 an 1882? 

there are other brothers and sisters but I dont know if they too went to Utah as I dont have any death details for these people

I dont have any acess to any overseas records so cant trace them myself 
but I am surely intrigued and would love to know some more about this family 

hope someone can help? 
thank you

Hi Teresa :)

On the 1900 census, I find Orson living with Henry and Martha:

1900 United States Federal Census
Name: Henry Haynes
Home in 1900: Nephi, Juab, Utah
Age: 69
Birth Date: Apr 1833
Birthplace: England

Mother's Birthplace: England
Spouse's name: Martha
Marriage Year: 1855

Source Citation: Year: 1900; Census Place: Nephi, Juab, Utah; Roll T623_1683; Page: 18A; Enumeration District: 104.

according to this record, Martha had 14 children, 12 were still living. They immigrated in 1881. Orson was a sheep herder. Also, I do see a Samuel Haynes born 1827 in England who arrived in the US in 1889. Henry, Martha and Orson were naturalized citizens.
wow thank you soooooo much
I am piecing together bit by bit and finding this amazing
I also found that Henry's brother Richard and wife Eliza nee brown

Wife and children all born in England.

In 1920, the census gives their immigration year as 1907, as of 1910, they were still alien residents, and Noah worked as a cemetery caretaker:

I'm guessing maybe Henry went to the US first, then had the rest of the family come later?

I dont know about a marriage for Agnes
but that may be because she married in Utah not England
I dont have any access on Ancestry to overseas records
so I am counting on good people like yourself to help me fill in the blanks

I have lots of hints but they are not accessible to me
you are doing a great job
so on a US census you dont get the maiden name of the wife?
Nope, usually the only way to find out a maiden name, if you don't already know her maiden name or find a marriage record is if an unmarried sister is living with the family or the mother in law. The Agnes Haynes I found in 1900 seems to match up pretty well, and on the death index where I found her, she was Agnes Haynes Haynes. :)

let me know if there are specific people you want looked up and I'll see what I can do. :)
I also found this site, by googling "Lorenzo Haynes" Utah
