Would you like to purchase a book I wrote about the life of Edward Lloyd Parry?
For the past two years, my father and I have spent hundreds of hours researching the life of Edward Lloyd Parry. We have visited museums, libraries, scoured the Internet, taken photos in St. George and Manti, and met up with numerous descendants in our efforts to gather information on this remarkable man. We have written a book that attempts to unite every possible picture, document, and fact we can find on him.
Here are some fascinating questions the book answers:
- Which temples did he help build?
- Which of his daughters was the first white baby girl born in St. George, Utah?
- Which of his wives did he baptize?
- How was it possible that one of his fathers-in-law was also his uncle?
- How many wives did he really have?
- How did he save the Salt Lake Temple from falling apart?
- How many patriarchal blessings did he receive?
- For which of the Three Witnesses did he make a tombstone?
- Who told him to take a second wife?
- How old was he when his last child was born?
- What dream did he have that saved the lives of temple construction workers?
- Who sealed him to his first and second wives?
- Which LDS leaders did he know personally?
- Which church leader helped him buy tobacco?
- Which temple treasure boxes did he help place?
- To which LDS Apostle was he sealed?
- What was his personality like?
