My great grandfather and grandmother joined the LDS church while living in England. They had 3 sets of 3 sons. All were named James, John, and Hyrum. When they left for the United States to join the Saints in Utah, around 1872, they brought their 3 youngest sons. My grandfather John was 6 at the time. They eventually settled in Hyrum, Utah where my grandpa John eventually met and married my grandmother Anna Laura Benson daughter of Moroni and Martha Benson. Enos and Martha Wray and Moroni and Martha Benson are all buried in the Hyrum, Utah cemetery within 80 feet of each other.
