This is one of three handwritten family group sheets documenting Theodore Turley’s marriages and children with Frances Kimberley, Mary Clift, and Sarah Ellen Clift. (We are not aware of any family memorials documenting his marriages and children with Eliza Clift or Ruth Jane Giles.) 

This family memorial describes Theodore’s family with Mary Clift. He notes her father’s name, Robert Clift. He notes their sealing date in the Nauvoo temple (19 January 1846). He lists names and birth places of their four children. Also notes death dates for the first three children. Finally, Theodore notes Mary’s 1850 death in “the Valley of the Great Salt Lake.” (See this blog post by Ann Lewis for more info.)
