"Lillian Beulah Hoyt, daughter of Israel Hoyt and Clarissa Amanda Miller was born in St. Joseph, Lincoln County, Nevada on February 16, 1869. St. Joseph was part of the Muddy River settlement and is now under the waters of Lake Meade.
...
Lillian remembered nothing of the time spent in St. Joseph as she was only two or three years old when the family moved to Kane County. She did remember the others telling how hot the summers were. The children went barefoot and as the girls ran across the sand they would throw their bonnets ahead of them and then run and stand on them to get off the hot sand. She also remembered her mother's stories about the times they lived there. Her mother asked her if she liked molasses and she answered "yes", then she asked if she liked dried peas. Lillian made a face and said "no!" Her mother said, "That is what we lived on during our first winter on the Muddy--molasses and dried peas.""
