MY STORY BY ARVAL PARK GORDON 
I was born, June, 6 1924, to Samuel Arthur 
and Harriet Louisa Meikle Gordon at 
Cornish, Cache County, Utah. 
Sister Ethyl and Mother holding Arval 
Cornish, Utah – About 1924/25 ------
My earliest recollection was living in a log 
house in Manderfield, Utah. I really don't 
remember much at this time except the 
house. Then our family moved to Salt Lake 
City, Carson Court, one half block west of 
State Street on 6th South. I cannot 
remember how long we lived here, but at 
this time my father came home to stay with 
us. I remember cutting my tongue with a 
pair of scissors. 
Then our family moved to 3372 South 11th 
East in Salt Lake Co. At this home I can 
remember more, here I spent most of my 
youth. Father built chicken coups and we had chicken and egg business. I use to go with 
my Father to sell his eggs and whatever else he had to sell.. I remember going to Uncle 
Harvey's store. We had good visits there. Also Dad would visit with Uncle Will. These 
were my Father's brothers. 
My Father passed away in his sleep after quite an illness. He passed 
away at our home on 18 Jan. 1938. Of my Father I can say he taught 
me many lessons for which I have always been thankful. I must have 
been pretty special to him as I look back. I was always with him doing 
whatever he did, and he took me without a moment’s hesitation. I 
repeated my Father and his passing was a great loss to me. I was 14 
when my Father died. 
Then I remember my Mother and I lived alone. My 
Mother was the most patient and kind person I have ever 
known. Mother had been confined to a wheelchair the last 
years of her life. She died 8 Mar. 1943, at my brother 
Jim's home in Draper. 
I enlisted in the Navy 19 Nov. 
1942. I went to Farragut, 
Idaho for boot training and to 
Mare Island in California for 
more training. I trained in the 
hospital corp. Then I was 
attached to a hospital unit 
and we left for overseas, 
Thanksgiving Day Nov. 1943.
While I was stationed at Mare Island I, at one time, met my Bro. Vernon (who at this time 
was in the service to). We spent the day together, not knowing this would be the last time I 
would see him in this life. He was also shipped over seas and was killed on Bougainville 
(near New Guinea) 23 Fob 1944. 
I was sent to New Guinea. I left 
the hospital and went to sea the 
spring of 194!}.. I was part of a 
crew of 10 men and two 
Doctor's. We made up a hospital 
who's job it was to evacuate the 
wounded from the invasions of 
the moves up thru the Islands. I 
was in the Phillipine Islands 
April and May 1945. Then we 
made the invasions of Barnieo, I 
was sent back to the United 
States Oct 1945. I was 
discharged 9 Nov 1945. 
I returned to Draper, Utah and lived with my Bro. James and family. I worked at the 
Draper Poultry Plant. At this time I bought, from my Brother Vern’s wife, Rayola; their 
home in Draper. 
During; this year I met and fell in love with Ruth Garfield 
of Draper, Utah. We 
moved into our little 
home and started in the 
chicken business. I also 
worked at other jobs. It 
was one this property that 
my wife Ruth and I built 
our home. All we hired 
done was the brick work 
and the plaster work. We 
loved and enjoyed this 
home. I also worked at 
the Fitlrol Corp for 11 
years. Then we sold this 
home and moved to 
Wendell Idaho. There we 
had an eighty acre farm and also another forty acre 
place. We farmed and had a dairy herd. But luck was not with us and we sold the farm 
and moved back to Utah in 1964.
We located in Sandy at 8023 South 830 East. I started-to work for the Jordan School 
District in July 1965. 
We have enjoyed living here, all our children have gone to school here and several have 
graduated from the schools here. 
Ruth and I have had seven children. Four boys and three girls. 
They were all born at the old Cottonwood Hospital in Murray, Utah. 
Arval and Ruth were later divorce.

Your tombstone stands neglected and alone. 
The name and date are chiseled out on polished, marbled stone. 
It reaches out to all who care. It is too late to mourn. 
You did not know that I exist. You died and I was born. 
Yet each of us are cells of you in flesh, in blood, in bone. 
Our heart contracts and beats a pulse entirely not our own. 
Dear Ancestor, the place you filled so many years ago. 
Spreads out among the ones you left who would have loved you so. 
I wonder as you lived and loved, I wonder if you knew 
That someday I would find this spot and come to visit you.

Sister Ethyl and Mother holding Arval Cornish, Utah – About 1924/25 ------
  • 2. My earliest recollection was living in a log house in Manderfield, Utah. I really don't remember much at this time except the house. Then our family moved to Salt Lake City, Carson Court, one half block west of State Street on 6th South. I cannot remember how long we lived here, but at this time my father came home to stay with us. I remember cutting my tongue with a pair of scissors. Then our family moved to 3372 South 11th East in Salt Lake Co. At this home I can remember more, here I spent most of my youth. Father built chicken coups and we had chicken and egg business. I use to go with my Father to sell his eggs and whatever else he had to sell.. I remember going to Uncle Harvey's store. We had good visits there. Also Dad would visit with Uncle Will. These were my Father's brothers. My Father passed away in his sleep after quite an illness. He passed away at our home on 18 Jan. 1938. Of my Father I can say he taught me many lessons for which I have always been thankful. I must have been pretty special to him as I look back. I was always with him doing whatever he did, and he took me without a moment’s hesitation. I repeated my Father and his passing was a great loss to me. I was 14 when my Father died. Then I remember my Mother and I lived alone. My Mother was the most patient and kind person I have ever known. Mother had been confined to a wheelchair the last years of her life. She died 8 Mar. 1943, at my brother Jim's home in Draper. I enlisted in the Navy 19 Nov. 1942. I went to Farragut, Idaho for boot training and to Mare Island in California for more training. I trained in the hospital corp. Then I was attached to a hospital unit and we left for overseas, Thanksgiving Day Nov. 1943.
  • 3. While I was stationed at Mare Island I, at one time, met my Bro. Vernon (who at this time was in the service to). We spent the day together, not knowing this would be the last time I would see him in this life. He was also shipped over seas and was killed on Bougainville (near New Guinea) 23 Fob 1944. I was sent to New Guinea. I left the hospital and went to sea the spring of 194!}.. I was part of a crew of 10 men and two Doctor's. We made up a hospital who's job it was to evacuate the wounded from the invasions of the moves up thru the Islands. I was in the Phillipine Islands April and May 1945. Then we made the invasions of Barnieo, I was sent back to the United States Oct 1945. I was discharged 9 Nov 1945. I returned to Draper, Utah and lived with my Bro. James and family. I worked at the Draper Poultry Plant. At this time I bought, from my Brother Vern’s wife, Rayola; their home in Draper. During; this year I met and fell in love with Ruth Garfield of Draper, Utah. We moved into our little home and started in the chicken business. I also worked at other jobs. It was one this property that my wife Ruth and I built our home. All we hired done was the brick work and the plaster work. We loved and enjoyed this home. I also worked at the Fitlrol Corp for 11 years. Then we sold this home and moved to Wendell Idaho. There we had an eighty acre farm and also another forty acre place. We farmed and had a dairy herd. But luck was not with us and we sold the farm and moved back to Utah in 1964.
  • 4. We located in Sandy at 8023 South 830 East. I started-to work for the Jordan School District in July 1965. We have enjoyed living here, all our children have gone to school here and several have graduated from the schools here. Ruth and I have had seven children. Four boys and three girls. They were all born at the old Cottonwood Hospital in Murray, Utah. Arval and Ruth were later divorce. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Arval married Barbara Brierley 2 Jan 1979 Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah
  • 5. Your tombstone stands neglected and alone. The name and date are chiseled out on polished, marbled stone. It reaches out to all who care. It is too late to mourn. You did not know that I exist. You died and I was born. Yet each of us are cells of you in flesh, in blood, in bone. Our heart contracts and beats a pulse entirely not our own. Dear Ancestor, the place you filled so many years ago. Spreads out among the ones you left who would have loved you so. I wonder as you lived and loved, I wonder if you knew That someday I would find this spot and come to visit you. Author Unknown
