Gathered by Ann Lewis

This is a collection of information about family members who descend from Theodore Turley (1801-1871) and/or Martin Bushman (1802-1870). It is intended to help you gain a better understanding of those who have gone before us.  These life stories can be used in your Family Home Evening lessons, as you prepare talks, or as your children are asked to prepare school reports on their ancestors.  Each name is linked to information about that person that can easily be cut and pasted into your PAF notes or Family History data bases, or printed out and shared with family members.

President Gordon B. Hinckley reminds us:

�It is good to look to the past to gain appreciation for the present and perspective for the future.  It is good to look upon the virtues of those who have gone before, to gain strength for whatever lies ahead.  It is good to reflect upon the work of those who labored so hard and gained so little in this world, but out of whose dreams has come a great harvest of which we are the beneficiaries.  Their tremendous example can become a compelling motivation for us all, for each of us is a pioneer in his own life, often in his own family, and many of us pioneer daily in trying to establish a gospel foothold in distant parts of the world. . . .

�In the environment in which many of us live, there is need for reminders of lessons learned in the past.  In our times of abundance, it is good occasionally to be taken back to earlier days, to have our minds refocused on the struggles of the early Latter-day Saints, to remind us of the necessity for labor if the earth is to be made to yield, of the importance of faith in God if there is to be lasting achievement, and of the need to recognize that many of the so-called old values are worthy of present application.�  (�The Faith of the Pioneers,� Ensign, July 1984, p. 3.)

Climbing Life�s Mountains:  Arizona Pioneer Stories and Faith-Promoting Experiences, collected by Edith Smith Bushman 1941-1972; compiled and published by The A. E. Bushman Family Organization, 1993.

(Climbing Life�s Mountains is a rare collection of the stories and faith inspiring experiences.  Many of them relate to the early Mormon colonists (and their descendants) in Arizona.  Beginning with the founding of the original four settlements: Allen�s Camp (Joseph City), Sunset, Brigham City, and Obed in March 1876, the pioneers came in a steady stream for the next ten years.  They usually stopped at Sunset or Allen�s Camp for a rest before moving on to establish new communities in Navajo and Apache Counties as well as going further to the Gila valley in southeastern Arizona.

(They came from well-established homes in Utah to a barren wilderness where survival became their priority.  Endurance, patience, and tolerance were virtues all had to develop as they struggled to provide for their basic needs.  There were always the unpredictable elements, the scarcity of supplies, the lawless gangs, the Indian uprisings and the need for more medical help as well as the isolation from family and friend left behind.  And there was work, work, work, with plenty of discouragement.  Success came because of commitment, stick-to-itiveness and vision.  Faith in God was their greatest asset and comfort.  Many prayers were offered.  Many prayers were answered.)
