Juan was the daughter of Stephen and Mary (Hall) Boyce. She married Philip Loch Conley on July 1, 1856, in Wapello County, Iowa. Her name is spelled several ways in the records, including Jone, Julia Ann (Boise) Conley, Joan F., Nancy, and Nan, but her actual name was Juan.

There is no gravestone for Juan under any of these names in Round Point Cemetery, but according to her death certificate, which may be seen in familysearch.org and her obituary, which I have transcribed below, she is buried here. If there ever was a gravestone for her, it wasn't there when any of the previous readings of the cemetery were done.
