In 1991 we united 1.$ a Turley family and n:ached our goal. II is a wonderfui llol:tomplisbmem to now have a beautiful marker on the grave Qf Theoclo:m: Turley in the Beaver. Utah Cemetery. Now all who desire. as they go through Beaver. can go to the cemetery and in the Sooth cenlJ'al ~ near the bridge over the canal. pause and pay tribute. Howappropria!<: we accomplish:d this goal during !he SC'squicemcMiaJ Year of 1997. Our next gnal as a family is 10 have a log t~bin on lhe silC of lhe fi rst home built;n Nauvoo by TIleodo~ Turley.
