Looking for Testimonies of Ancestors who fled from Brigham Young/Utah

I’m looking to see if any of the Saints have testimonies or diaries of their ancestors that tells their ancestors went west with Brigham Young but once they got out to Utah realized that they had been deceived and had to flee for their lives. I’m looking for firsthand accounts in diaries or testimonies for a website a LDS friend is working on and for an upcoming podcast Dan and I will be doing. Here’s my email address: Luvstravelynn@yahoo.com Cheryl Clute

NEW BOOK—FEBRUARY, 2024

 

NEW BOOK—FEBRUARY, 2024 Michael Stephenson has produced Study Notes on the Book of Nehemiah, which we have agreed to distribute to our customers. The subtitle is “Insights into the Redemption of Zion.” The book’s introduction asks these questions: “Why study the book of Nehemiah? What is its relevance to this generation?” This answer is given: “From the rubble of Jerusalem’s history, God brought hope to a people with a calling. They were given a choice land in the midst of heathen nations so that the ensign of Zion might shine forth. The book of Nehemiah is a book of hope and courage in the face of daunting circumstances. It is a book for our generation, whose task it is to prepare for the restoration of Zion.”

The book has 86 pages and sells for $8.00. We will mail the book with an invoice and envelope for your payment or will deliver it in the Independence, MO, area. To order, e-mail to PaulVLudy@gmail.com or call 816-210-8450.
