Comment on Archives Month: Author of The Mormon Rebellion: America’s First Civil War by Sarah Dunster

This looks like a great book. I’ve written a novel that takes place during/after the move back north and judge John Cradlebaugh’s occupation of Provo in spring 1858.

Thanks for all of this. It’s a wonderful resource. I’m working on a long term project involving Elizabeth Pugsley Hayward, who served in the Senate during the 1919 and 1921 sessions and was able to introduce the bill for ratification of the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution into the Senate, so it is great to have all these documents available online.

I can’t get over the impression that Martin’s letter to Mrs. Eccles seems relatively well written, with neat handwriting, yet his photo looks like the villain in an old silent movie.

Liane, It appears you have confused us with Utah State History's Cemetery and Burial Database. Their data is directly from the cemetery so you should work directly with that cemetery to correct information. The Utah Death Index of certificates begins in 1904 and reflects records created by the Department of Health, Vital Records as explained in the research guides linked in this post. If you need further help, please contact the Research Center directly.
