Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. In the beginning of the movie, where does the shopkeeper, Mr. Bixby, suggest Adam go to find a wife?

Answer: Back east

Mr. Bixby, owner of the general store in town, says there are 10 men for every woman in the Oregon territory, and suggests Adam should go back east to find a wife. Adam assures him that he always gets what he wants and leaves the store checking out every woman he passes. Then he spots Milly and knows she is the gal for him!

2. What is Milly doing when Adam first spots her?

Answer: Chopping wood

Adam sees Milly chopping wood, and then watches her go into the restaurant where she serves the men a meal she has cooked. When he sees how hard she works, he believes she will be able to be a wife who will work beside him. Adam lives a hard life on the frontier and he needs a woman who can be a partner and handle her share of the work.

3. On their way home, after the wedding, Adam and Milly stop to water the horses. What herb does Milly pick to use in a soup?

Answer: Sorrel

Milly says that Sorrel makes "real nourishin' soups"! She has been cooking and serving the men in town at the restaurant, and she is excited to take care of just one man. She doesn't know that she has six brothers-in-law, yet, or that they all live with Adam!

4. When Adam and Milly arrive home, she is shocked to learn that she has six brothers-in-law. Then the brothers begin to fight. Why does Frank get into a fist fight with his brothers?

Answer: They tell Milly his full name

Frank is very sensitive about his name. His full name is Frankincense. The brothers are all named after men in the Bible, in alphabetical order, but they couldn't find a name that began with the letter "F". The brothers names are Adam, Benjamin, Caleb, Daniel, Ephraim, Frankincense and Gideon.

5. On their wedding night, Milly cooks dinner for Adam and his six brothers. She is so appalled by their manners that she does what?

Answer: Flips the table, spilling the food

Along with being a hard worker, Milly has quite the temper. She dumps all of the food on the floor and goes in her room and slams the door. She is not only angry about the bad manners, but angry at Adam for not telling her about his brothers all living with them. She feels that the marriage, for Adam, was more about her sharing the work load than about love.

6. At the barn raising picnic, which brother was hit in the stomach with a piece of lumber by one of the town men, starting a free-for-all brawl?

Answer: Adam

Poor Adam was hit in the stomach, even though he wasn't part of the rivalry for the girls at the picnic. This big fight really disappointed Milly, who worked so hard to try to refine the brothers to help them find wives. The brothers won the fight, but lost their hearts to the girls from town. After the picnic, they can't think about anything except their girls.

7. The brothers decide to kidnap the girls they met at the picnic in order to marry them. What kind of natural disaster prevents the girl's families from rescuing them?

Answer: An avalanche

The brothers scream and shout and shoot causing an avalanche to block the mountain pass between town and the brothers' home. It was only after the pass is blocked, that they realize they forgot to kidnap the preacher to marry them all. When they get home Milly is furious. She makes all of the brothers sleep in the barn all winter, while the girls stay in the house with her.

8. When Milly finds out that the brothers have kidnapped the girls from town, and that it was Adam's idea, she kicks him out of the house. Where does he go to live?

Answer: To the trapping cabin in the mountains

Adam goes to the trapping cabin in the mountains to wait out the winter and Milly's anger over his part in kidnapping the town girls. While he is gone, Milly realizes that she is pregnant. When Adam returns in the spring, he finds out that he has a daughter!

9. What do Milly and Adam name their baby girl?

Answer: Hannah

They name her Hannah. It is a bible name and is next in alphabetical order after the brothers' names. They are picking up where Adam's parents left off.

10. During the wedding of the six brothers and the town girls, what are the girls fathers holding?

Answer: Guns

The brothers have won the girls over. After a long winter cooped up together they fell in love. When the fathers of the girls arrive to rescue them in the spring, they hear a baby crying. The fathers ask the town girls who the baby belongs to, and all of the girls say the baby is theirs. So all the brothers and the town girls have a shotgun wedding!
