Nick owns a motel and storage units in Beaver, and has a home in Manderfield, north of Beaver. He lives part time in Beaver and part time in Layton. Served on 45th Year Reunion committee of Class of 1961, in 2006. @2006 ~ ~ ~ ~ HIS OBITUARY: Nicholas Larsen Faulkner, December 6, 1942 ~ March 14, 2021. Surrounded by his loving family, Nicholas Larsen Faulkner passed away peacefully at his home in Beaver, Utah, on March 14, 2021. Nick was born on December 6, 1942, the fifth child of William Charles and Bernice Larsen Faulkner in Spokane, Washington. Shortly thereafter his family moved to their fruit farm in Edgemont, the river bottoms area of Provo, Utah. He spent his childhood doing many jobs on the farm from irrigating at all hours of the night to taking care of the livestock. At the young age of ten, he picked cherries where he lost his first day’s wages for not leaving the stems on. Nick graduated from Brigham Young High School in Provo, Utah, in the Class of 1961. He had many faithful friends that he stayed in contact with until his final days. He learned the value of hard work from his dad and older brother; he was doted on by his three, loving, older sisters. Nick was blessed with a keen mind and a great sense of business right to the very end. He owned and operated many successful businesses in multiple states, which often required that he fly his personal plane, which he loved doing. Flying was one of his many passions. When Nick was not working, he could be found on the lake boating, snowmobiling in West Yellowstone, riding ATVs in the Tusher mountains, or riding his Harley in Sturgis with his wife and boys. In 1967 he met and married Karyl Skinner, who had two sons of her own, and together they added four more. They later divorced. In 2003, he married his eternal companion and love of his life, Patrea Rasmusson; from this union he gained a daughter and two more sons. He and Patrea lived in the beautiful valley of Beaver, Utah. He often proudly told his friends that there were no stop lights in Beaver; when the first one was installed, he was not happy about it. Nick is an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served faithfully in many callings. Several times he served as a Scoutmaster and was a great example to many boys. He also served as a ward mission leader, a ward clerk, and a stake clerk. Nick had a true testimony of tithing and fast offerings, and was blessed richly throughout his life. He was truly the best Dad, Grandpa (Gramps), and husband ever!! He is survived by his wife, Patrea Faulkner, his sons, Nick (Nancy) Faulkner, Jr., Chris Faulkner, Shayne (Susan) Faulkner, Courtney (Summer) Faulkner, Jen (Bryan) Alexander, Chase (Taisha) Powell, Austin (Kami) Mortensen, Jeff (Nancy) Skinner. 24 grandchildren, 6 great-grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews. He loved them all dearly. He is preceded in death by his parents and older siblings, Diane Jarvis, Jackie Bryant, Margaret Woody, Bill Faulkner, an infant, younger brother Arthur Faulkner, and son Brett (Wendy) Skinner. Funeral services will be held on Saturday, March 20, 2021, in the Beaver 5th ward located at 1380 East 200 North, Beaver, UT.

Lynn Fausett. He received a BYH Art & Manual Training Diploma in 1912. Source 2: Annual Record, B.Y. University, Book 6, page 189. ~ ~ ~ ~ Lynn Fausett was born on February 27, 1894 in Price, Utah. His parents were George Adelbert Fausett and Helen Josephine Bryner Fausett. Lynn married twice. He first married Helen Elizabeth Wessells on September 15, 1925. She was an artist, and they were later divorced. He second married Fiametta Rhead on September 7, 1940. Fiametta was born on April 8, 1897 in Coalville, Utah. Her parents were James B. Rhead and Maria Martin Rhead. Fiametta Fausett died on October 13, 1989 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Her interment, Price, Utah. Lynn Fausett died on August 17, 1977 in Salt Lake City, Utah. His interment, Price, Utah. ~ ~ ~ ~ Lynn Fausett was born February 27, 1894, in Price, Utah -- just 15 years after the first white people settled there. He was the oldest of eight children and encouraged his younger brother, Dean, also to become an artist. Later, Dean did just that. Lynn studied art at Brigham Young High School, Brigham Young University, the University of Utah, and the Art Students League of New York, while living on very modest means. He later served as President of the Art Students League for 14 years. He was honored for stabilizing the league, which was reeling from the clashes of artistic rivalries on the staff and in the membership and was in financial trouble. During his presidency, the League liberalized its requirements for membership and placed a three-year limitation on Board membership. This condition continues today. Under Fausett, the League embarked on a greatly broadened approach to teaching and included teachers with radically different points of view on the staff. Fausett also studied fresco painting in France and mosaics in Germany and Italy. He worked on murals for numerous important buildings including the Nebraska State Capitol, St. Bartholomew Church in New York, Irving Trust Co. in New York, Wall Street in New York City, the Foreign Exchange Telephone Building in New York City, the Baltimore Trust Co. in Maryland, Union Station in Kansas City, at the Chicago Worlds Fair, and many others. He worked on four murals under WPA sponsorship, beginning with a mural for his home town in the Price City Hall, which involved nearly two years of work. Fausett also managed to complete other commissions including a large mural in the Union Building of the University of Wyoming and another work at the White Pine High School in Ely, Nevada. In addition, he painted many murals for the L.D.S. Church, including a Mural commemorating the 63rd anniversary of the founding of the Primary Association (the children's auxiliary). Fausett's paintings utilized a technique employing gauche and tempera with oil varnishes rather than oil pigment itself. His earlier style partook of the 1930s American Scene art as popularized by Reginald Marsh and others. Later he overly employed photographs, especially upon his return to Utah in the 1960s. From about 1942 on, Fausett produced easel paintings of historical subjects and of impressions he retained from his childhood, including military life, ranch scenes, cattle drives, and various recollections of Utah Canyon country. Lynn Fausett earned a place in Who's Who in New York in 1938, in Who's Who in America in 1940, and was twice listed in more recent years in Who's Who in American Art.

Barlow Ferguson died on July 19, 1926. ~ ~ ~ ~ Wallsburg, April 1881. Editor, Deseret News: "Our day school has been taught this winter by Brother Barlow Ferginson (sic), a graduate of the Brigham Young Academy, a rising young man, who will, I have no doubt, make an honorable mark in the world. Your brother in the gospel of peace. ~ ~ George Dabling. [Deseret News, April 27, 1881.] ~ ~ ~ ~ He was listed in the Deseret News as a participant in The People's Party of Salt Lake County in 1890, and in the Republican Party in 1891 and thereafter. ~ ~ ~ ~ OBITUARY OF HIS MOTHER: Mrs. Lucy Ferguson, whose death was recorded in yesterdays NEWS, was born in Hatfield, Massachusetts, October 1, 1825. When at the age of 21, while unmarried, she joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and was the only one of her family that ever embraced the Gospel. She had been working in the factory and had laid up sufficient money to pay her passage from New York to San Francisco. All her folks shunned her after having joined the Church. She sailed from New York on the ship Brooklyn in Brannan's Company, was on the water six months, and landed at San Francisco when the place was a village of about 200 or 300 people. She there met and became acquainted with General James Ferguson, who came to California as one of the Mormon Battalion. They were married at San Francisco and then started for Utah. She rode from California to Utah on horseback, landing here in the spring of 1848. She lived in Salt Lake City with her husband James Ferguson until 1861, when she with her family of five children moved to the town of Lehi, Utah county, where she lived until 1890; then she moved to Salt Lake City and has since resided with her son, Attorney Barlow Ferguson. She was a faithful Latter-day Saint up to the time of her death. She leaves a large circle of friends and acquaintances to mourn her loss. She had suffered with a cough for about six years, which with organic heart trouble took her off. She did not suffer a great deal of pain during her last illness. She was surrounded by all her children at the time of her death. The funeral takes place tomorrow, the 9th, at 11 o'clock, in the Fifteenth ward meeting house. Bishop Orson F. Whitney will deliver the funeral sermon. [Deseret Evening News, January 8, 1895.] ~ ~ ~ ~ "Barlow Ferguson, formerly an attorney of Salt Lake, who resides in Boise, Idaho, is in Salt Lake on a business trip". [Salt Lake Herald, February 2, 1906.] ~ ~ ~ ~ HIS BIOGRAPHY: Barlow Ferguson. Born: December 5, 1859 at San Francisco, Yerba Buena, California. Died: July 19, 1926. ~ ~ "Barlow Ferguson, senior member of the law firm of Ferguson and Cannon. Among the well-known and able attorneys of Salt Lake City, the career of Barlow Ferguson is one that may well furnish both diversion and instruction to the reader of these pages. A native son of Utah, born and reared amid the inspiring associations to be found in this western country, where the very air makes one's pulse beat and the brain clearer, he early took up the study of the law and began active practice in his young manhood, practicing alone for some time and forming his present partnership about 1892. He is alert and wide-awake, level-headed and his uniform success in handling big cases has brought him a large volume of valuable business, and he is at this time attorney for the leading mercantile and manufacturing establishments of this State. Mr. Ferguson was born in Salt Lake City on December 5, 1859, and is the son of General James Ferguson and Lucy (Nutting) Ferguson. The father was born in Belfast, Antrim, Ireland, February 23, 1828, remaining there until thirteen years of age, when he went to Liverpool, and there remained until he reached manhood. He was a self-taught man, never having attended school after he was nine years of age. In Liverpool he first heard the doctrines of Mormonism preached, and being convinced of the truth of that religion, was baptized into the Church and came to America in 1847, at the age of nineteen years. He was among those who started for Utah in 1847. He was Adjutant-General of the Utah Militia, and upon the call coming for volunteers for the war against Mexico, was one of the first to volunteer his services, and became a Sergeant-Major in the Mormon Battalion [under Captain James Brown Company "C"]. He made the entire trip across the deserts of Colorado and Mexico with his company, suffering untold privations and hardships, and when the Battalion was divided in New Mexico, was among those who went on to California to the relief of General Kearney. He came to Salt Lake with his company in 1849. He took up the study of the law, practicing up to the time of his death in 1863. He was also prominently identified with the newspaper life of Salt Lake City, establishing the Mountaineer, having associated with him Seth M. Blair, and continued to publish that paper up to a few years previous to his demise. Locally he had quite a reputation as an actor in the early days of Salt Lake City. He took a leading part in all the affairs of the city during his life time, and was well known and highly esteemed. He died at the age of thirty-five years. He married in San Francisco to Miss Lucy Nutting, the mother of our subject. She was the mother of five children. Mrs. Ferguson, then Miss Nutting, at her home in Hatfield, Massachusetts, joined the Mormon Church in 1846. Then a lone girl at the age of twenty-one, left her parents, relatives and friends, took passage on the ship Brooklyn, a sailing vessel, and after a six ­months' perilous voyage rounded Cape Horn, touched at Honolulu and landed at San Francisco, then a town of only two hundred people. It was there she met and married Mr. Ferguson. Her first child, Julia, now the wife of C. H. Brown, of Liberty, Idaho, was born in the Old Fort, now the Sixth Ward Square, in Salt Lake City. Mrs. Ferguson was a strong and vigorous minded woman, and endured all the hardships incident to the early times here in Utah with a light heart, having to the end the greatest faith in her religion, which enabled her to endure these hardships without a murmur. After her marriage Mrs. Ferguson made the trip from San Francisco to Salt Lake City on horseback. She died in this city in 1895. Our subject was educated in the public schools of Lehi, and later in the Brigham Young Academy at Provo, from which institution he graduated in 1880. After his graduation he started out in Park City to make his own way in life, beginning by cutting cord wood, teaching school and anything that came to hand. He had always had a strong predilection for the study of the law, and all his spare time was devoted to study along this line. He was admitted to practice before the Supreme Court in 1886, and opened his office in Salt Lake City, practicing by himself and building up a fine business. About 1892 he formed a partnership with John M. Cannon under the firm name of Ferguson and Cannon, and this firm has rapidly come to the front as among the best practitioners in the State. Mr. Ferguson was married in 1885 to Miss Rachel Tanner, daughter of Sidney Tanner and Rachel (Neyman) Tanner, who came to Utah in 1850. Five children have been born of this marriage, four of whom are living - Ratie Ferguson, James Barlow Ferguson, Blaine Ferguson and Keith Ferguson. In politics Mr. Ferguson is a Republican and has been quite an active worker for his party. He held the office of County Attorney for Beaver county and was at one time Assistant City and County Attorney for Salt Lake county. He is a member of the Mormon Church in which he is an Elder. He is at this time attorney for the Utah Sugar Company and Zion's Savings Bank and Trust Company, and also for the Bear River Water Company, the State Bank of Utah and the Salt Lake Theater. In social life Mr. Ferguson numbers many warm friends, being possessed of most gentle­manly and unassuming manners, and is quite unspoiled by the honors that have come to him and which have been won by his own undaunted pluck, perseverance and splendid energy." Barlow Ferguson died on July 19, 1926. [Source: See website.]
