Young Pioneers Christmas

It's 1874 on the plains of the Dakotas and young couple David (Roger Kern) and Molly (Linda Purl) have just lost their first-born son. Overcome with grief, they seek support from their kind-hearted neighbors—Mr. Peters (Robert Donner) and his children, Nettie, Flora and Charlie, as well as bachelor Dan Gray (Robert Hays). The friends stick together through thick and thin, standing up for each other when poverty and railroad expansion threaten their livelihoods. As Christmas approaches, they each prepare a special gift and join together for the most memorable of all celebrations. This Christmas classic was the hit sequel to Young Pioneers, which was also televised in 1976, leading to short-lived 1978 series The Young Pioneers.
