I, Arthur Clarence Weekes, am a native of Sunnydell, being born at Sunnydell the 27th of May 1901, to Sidney and Annie Bennet Harris Weekes. During the years I spent growing up on the farm my past times included: ice skating, horseback riding and playing in the Snake River.
I went to school at Sunnydell and the University of Hard Knocks. I was called to serve an LDS Mission in the Central States, from April 7, 1919 to May 9, 1921, better than a month after I was 18 years old. I served most of my time in Texas.
I have served as Superintendent of Sunday School in the Archer and Sunnydell Wards, as a teacher in Sunday School, served on two stake missions, eleven years on Stake High Council, and sixteen and one-half years as an officiator in the Idaho Falls Temple, from 1963 to 1979.
I was married to Pearl Cleo Bee, November 4, 1926, in the Logan LDS Temple by Joseph Shepard.
I, Pearl, was born at Georgetown, Idaho, November 14, 1905, to John Moxey Bee and Sarah Rozella Dunn. I was the oldest of seven children. My childhood was cut short when my mother died when I was 13 years old. I went to school in Georgetown for 10 years; there was a two-year high school there then. I spent my third year at Oakley, Idaho, school. I graduated from Fielding High at Paris, Idaho, in 1924. I attended summer school at Ricks in 1925.
In February of 1926 I met Clarence. We kept company all summer and were married in November. We started our married life in Sunnydell and are still living here.
I served as President of the Sunnydell Primary when it was a branch of the Archer Ward. I have served as a teacher in Primary, Sunday School and Relief Society and secretary in Relief Society. I served as an officiator in the Idaho Falls Temple with my husband. We had many choice experiences while serving under Presidents: Killpack, Arrve, Hart and Groberg.
We celebrated our 50th wedding in 1976 having all our family, brothers and sisters here to a reception held at the Archer Church. Many relatives and friends attended. We went to Canada for a second honeymoon.
We are parents of the following eight children:
Evelyn Beth, born January 28, 1928, at Sunnydell, now Idaho Falls, Idaho.
Lorna Marie, born January 6, 1929, died May 23, 1931.
Clarence Myrl, born September 11, 1931, at Sunnydell, married Leila Marjean Mecham 1 November 1950, Idaho Falls Temple. They are the parents of eight children and live in Sunnydell.
Ila, born February 3, 1933, at Sunnydell, married Raymond Hill 27 May 1954 in the Idaho Falls Temple. They are the parents of five children (their three sons have filled
missions). They live at Ucon, Idaho.
Carol, born 10 October 1934, at Sunnydell, married Francis Andrew Bailey in the Idaho Falls Temple 8 October 1957. They are the parents of four children (1 filled a mission to Texas) and live in Idaho Falls, Idaho.
Thell B., born June 1, 1937, at Sunnydell, married Beatrice Joan Grover 11 September 1964. They are the parents of five children and live in Sunnydell.
Rozella Ann, born 26 July 1941, at Sunnydell, married Richard Hudson McGurk in the Idaho Falls Temple 18 March 1966. They are the parents of five children and live in Salt Lake City, Utah.
LaVoun, born 30 May 1943, at Burton, Idaho, married Douglas Lynn Poulsen 30 April 1965 in the Idaho Falls Temple. They are the parents of five children and live in Pocatello, Idaho.
We are so blessed to have a thoughtful family. We love each member. We have thirty-two grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren thus far. (1980)
