!Guy Carlton was ordained a Seventy with all his brothers at Quincy, Ill. on May 5, 1839. However he never went on a mission but stayed at Nauvoo and looked after the families of those who went. !He apparently built up his business and property better than the average as he paid more taxes than the rest, and in cash, whereas many worked out their tax. !Guy Carlton did not leave Nauvoo until about the first of September 1846, and they were only two weeks out on the trail when he was bitten by a poisonous snake and died. He was buried beside the trail in an unmarked grave. !His family went on to Garden Grove, Iowa where they stayed and established a wagon repair station. In the spring of 1850, his cousin George Deliverance Wilson returned from duty in the Mormon Batallion, married Elizabeth and took the family to Salt Lake City where they annulled the marriage.

On 20 Sep 1839 Guy's six brothers went to the Lexington Land Office and purchased patented land in Ray and Caldwell counties. I do not why Guy and his father, Bradley, did not purchase land, but it is very safe to surmise that they were all there and all lived on the acreage purchased by the six brothers.
