They, Franklin Parish Denham and wife Dicia Ann Wood Denham were converted to the Gospel of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints while they were living in Boles, Monroe County, Kentucky; by Elder Skelton of Salt Lake City, Utah and Elder Hendricks of Cash Valley, Utah and Heber Perkins and Willard Hatch of Taylor, Arizona. All were baptized in Kentucky. They were going to go to Cash Valley with Elder Hendricks, but sister Denham (Dicia) was pregnant so they had to wait until Emma was born. So they came later to Arizona when Emma was two (2) months old. Aunt Carrie Wood also came to Arizona with her Aunt; the sister of James Wood's mother. Aunt Carrie Wood Perkins came out to Arizona intending to be Heber Perkin's second wife , but after she got to Arizona she married his batchlor brother, Littleton L. Perkins in place of Heber.
