He emigrated with his mother to Jackson County, Mo., in the fall of 1833, and a few weeks later the saints were driven out by mobs. Thorit was baptized as a boy and moved with the saints from Missouri to Illinois, and while on the journey from Nauvoo westward in 1846 he enlisted in the famous Mormon Battalion, and marched to California, enduring all the fatigue and hardships of that long, wearisome journey.

He left a wife and three children, and died as a faithful member of the Church.
