Note | The family was driven from Missouri by a mob. Quoting from Nicholus Gourley Teeples, "In the spring of 1839, the family moved to Nauvoo, Illinois. His father George Teeples and Lanson Coulby were running Joseph Smith's farm at Nauvoo when the Prophet and his brother Hyrum were killed in Carthage Jail. Lanson Coulby was a brother-in-law to George Teeples. Their son Sidney was called into service of the Mormon Battalion by Brigham Young in 1846. "George Teeples and family came across the plains in 1848, shortly after arriving in Salt Lake they moved to Provo. In 1853, while living in Provo, the Walker War broke out. Sidney was a boy of 16, yet he was called into service along with the men, to help defend their loved ones from the Indians. In 1856 the family moved to Fort Supply. "In 1860 Sidney came to Goshen to visit his brother William Teeples." Here he met and married Nicholus Gourley. As a boy he had lived among the early settlers wherein, the Ute Indians were seen every day, and he had played with them all his life. He could speak their language as well as he could his own. In 1867 the couple moved to Holden, and participated in all the trying scenes incident to early pioneering.
