Far West Record edited by Donald Q Cannon and Lyndon W Cook Deseret Book Company, Salt Lake City, Utah 1983 318 pages ISBN 0877479011 From flyleaf "The Far West Record is a compilation of the minutes of various meetings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from 1830 to 1844" Of special interest to users of this website are the footnotes and biographical index that give identifying information for those whose names appear in these minutes. There are 338 entries in the biographical index. Information goes all the way from one line that does not even include the first name, only the family name to others that include four or five sentences with many details. Several entries note subjects later involvement with the reorganization. As of this writing (5 Sept 01) the book was still available for a very reasonable price from Deseret Books. |
