Both Cleon and Vida Moore were actively engages for most of the later part of their lives in genealogy work and the organization of family records. At Vida's passing, she had compiled many large genealogical binders on her and Cleon's families. These records are currently in the possession of her daughter, Alice Moore Jewett. As a personal note, one of the nicest days I have ever spent was in 1988 when I visited with Grandma and reviewed the records she had compiled. I took a small copy machine with me and was able to copy many of the stories and histories. I spent most of the day with her, and was able to hear her first account knowledge of many of the events found in her personal history. As you will glean from this family history, Grandma like to be independent and cook for herself. During my visit, she fixed lunch for the two of us. For those that don't know, I am not the biggest fan of vegetables. Grandma brought in lunch, and there on my plate was a large piece of banana squash. With lots of butter and salt, I made it through this piece, only to get given, without being asked, another large piece of squash. The histories contained herein has been compiled through computer scanning from the extensive work done by Gaylia Clayson Moore. Gaylia has spent considerable time and effort typing the hand-written histories kept by Vida Hill Moore. The editor was able to take this work, done by Gaylia, and have it scanned into a computer. The scanned information was then converted from a graphic format into a text format using computer software technology known as "optical character recognition" (OCR). This conversion process in not totally accurate and therefore these scanned histories were then edited to correct the errors created. At best as possible, the language, spelling, and grammar of the original writers was maintained. Without the work done by Gaylia, the compilation of these family histories would not have been accomplished. The editor of this work extended his deepest appreciation to Gaylia for the work she did and the hundreds of hours she spent to make these histories available to the family. DAVID W.

Fairbanks’s Account of the Paris Art Mission Rachel Cope n the late nineteenth century, Paris was the unchallenged capital of West- I ern art; as a result, budding artists aspired to study there. Included in this group was John B. Fairbanks of Payson, Utah, who, through the sponsorship of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, fulfilled his goal by serving as an art missionary from 1890 to 1892. While studying with other LDS art missionaries at the Académie Julian in Paris, Fairbanks corresponded regu- larly with his wife, Lillie, and their then-seven children. Many of Fairbanks’s letters have been preserved in the Church History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah;1 this article presents an important selection of them below.

  • Uncovering Hubert Bebb's Tourist Vernacular in Gatlinburg
    NASH, KATHERINE A., M.S. Tourism as Heritage: Uncovering Hubert Bebb’s Tourist Vernacular in Gatlinburg. (2009) Directed by Dr. Patrick Lee Lucas. 187 pp. According to Park visitor statistics Gatlinburg, Tennessee rates as the most heavily visited national park in the United States; as a gateway community and the official entrance to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, its downtown landscape remains cemented in the minds of many across the nation. Through a context based visual analysis utilizing Maxwell’s two-way stretch theory, the researcher traced the origins and defining characteristics of this Gatlinburg aesthetic – the Tourist Vernacular – that evolved primarily through the work of one architect: Hubert Bebb. Through visual analysis, Bebb emerged as the key architect who, over the course of fifty years, not only created hybrids informed by the existing built environment of Gatlinburg, but inserted a new prototype and subsequent hybrids that came to define much of the downtown landscape. Bebb’s early work sits as a response to the buildings of the settlement school era, established in 1912. With precedents from this development, he augmented materials and forms to buildings in a time when government officials conceptualized and developed the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, authorized in 1926 and formally dedicated in 1940, an era characterized by a boom in construction as a result of increased tourism. His work is most particularly influential in the third quarter of the twentieth century when businesses and community leaders, including Bebb himself, shaped a place image consistent with visitor expectations. Utilizing Bebb’s Tourist Vernacular, designers and business leaders have transformed the built environment in the last several decades.

  • Art, Religious Memory, and Mormon Polygamy
    MAVCOR Journal (mavcor.yale.edu) Art, Religious Memory, and Mormon Polygamy Marie W. Dallam Sociologist Daniele Hervieu-Leger has written that religion is “a chain of memory,” implicitly drawing on existentialist thought to articulate how religion functions for communities. In a world in which change is near-constant and meaning is at best abstract, religion can ofset a resultant ennui. Hervieu-Leger posits that, by cloaking themselves in specifc religious “traditions” and a religious “history,” people fnd a validating identifcation with a faith community. She writes, “Continuity acts as the visible expression of a fliation that the individual or collective believer expressly claims and that integrates him or her into a spiritual community assembling past, present, and future believers. The heritage of belief fulflls the role of legitimizing imaginary reference.”1 Put more simply: communities of faith understand their present in relation to a religious history that they believe to be true and authoritative. Though one might debate whether this is the primary function of religion or just one of its many functions, there is little denying the importance of religion’s ability to provide narrative framing for our lives. What happens, then, when part of the religious history a person believes in turns out to be incorrect? A dissonance is created that must be addressed through new interpretations of past, present, and possibly the future. A revised history may combine with imagination to create a very diferent chain of memory. As Hervieu-Leger writes, a reinvented chain is formed through a “process of selective forgetting, sifting and retrospectively inventing.”2 She sees this process of reinvention as part of what keeps religion fourishing.
