    PLATT FAMILY RECORDS CENTER NOTES Volume 3.1 compiled by Lyman D. Platt, Ph.D. Platt Family Records Center The Redwoods, New Harmony, Utah 2008 2 The Platt Family Records Center Copyright © 2008 The Lyman D. Platt Family Protection Trust All Rights Reserved Manufactured in the U.S.A. 3 INTRODUCTION Over many years the collections that comprise the Platt Family Records Center (PFRC) have been gathered from a diversity of sources and locations. These have been cataloged as they have been received, or in the order that they were initially organized. It was not felt in preparing this final version that a re-cataloging was necessary due to the versatility of the indexing systems used. There are twelve divisions to the PFRC: 1) Documents; 2) Letters; 3) Notes; 4) Family Histories; 5) Journals & Diaries; 6) Manuscripts; 7) Photographs; 8) Maps; 9) Books; 10) Genealogies; 11) Bibliography; and 12) Indexes. The collection that follows - Notes - is divided into several volumes, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, etc. These notes do not contain all of the material that I have collected, but they are a compilation of much of it. Some information went directly into histories, family group records, pedigree charts and short biographies. Copies of these volumes have been given to: 1) Special Collections, Marriott Library, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah; 2) The Church Historical Library, Salt Lake City, Utah; 3) Special Collections, Southern Utah University, Cedar City, Utah; and 4) The Daughters of the Utah Pioneers Museum, Salt Lake City, Utah. Additional copies have been given to each of my siblings and to some of our children.
