A GUIDE TO MORMON MANUSCRIPTS AT THE HUNTINGTON LIBRARY 3

INTRODUCTION

Since its establishment in 1919, the Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens has achieved international renown for the magnificence of its gardens and of its public exhibits. Although less well known to the public at large, the diverse resources of the Library’s research collections have achieved an equal fame since that time among the world-wide community of scholars who study the many facets of Anglo-American civilization. Building upon the multitude of books and manuscripts gathered by the Library’s founder, southern California land and transportation magnate Henry E. Huntington, subsequent generations of librarians have assembled a collection of remarkable depth and breadth in such fields as the Anglo-American literary world of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the founding of the American republic, the history of science and technology and the exploration, and the settlement and development of the North American West.

Huntington’s penchant for purchasing large collections sometimes led, almost by chance, to the development of specialized collecting areas that he had not previously cultivated, such as the history of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and its adherents, both prominent and humble. The development of the Huntington’s Mormon collections began with the purchase of a first and second edition of the , which were acquired with the E. Dwight Church and Augustin MacDonald collections in 1911 and 1916. This was followed by the additions of a variety of other printed texts related to Mormon history, which Huntington continued to purchase until his death in 1927. The assembly of these printed texts and foray into collecting Mormon manuscript material were furthered by Huntington librarian Leslie E. Bliss in the 1920s, culminating with the acquisition of the John D. Lee diaries in 1929. In 1934 the Huntington acquired the Jacob Smith Boreman Papers - which focus on the two trials of John D. Lee – and, under the Works Progress Administration in 1942, began collecting facsimile diaries and reminiscences by . These early acquisitions were extraordinarily enhanced beginning in 1944, when Huntington Library research associate Robert Glass Cleland helped secure a Rockefeller Foundation grant to fund the collecting of manuscripts related to southwestern American history. To further this goal, the library enlisted Mormon historian Juanita Brooks to comb the Great Basin area for potential acquisitions, resulting in the addition of a wide variety of original manuscripts and facsimile reproductions to the rapidly expanding Mormon collections. This collecting pace continued unabated through the 1950s and into the 1960s, and the majority of the Huntington’s Mormon manuscripts were acquired during this time. In addition to these individual items, the Library acquired several major collections, including the papers of Fred Lockley in 1959, the papers of Kimball Young in 1965, and the Lewis Crum Bidamon Papers in 1966. The work of Bliss, Cleland, Brooks, and their successors expanded the Library’s holdings from a modest assortment of texts and manuscripts to one of the most comprehensive Mormon history collections outside of .

The Huntington’s Mormon holdings now constitute thousands of pieces encompassing every aspect of Mormon history, beginning with the founding of the Church and continuing through the exoduses from Nauvoo and Kirtland, the migration along pioneer trails to Zion, and the settlement of the inter-mountain west. Some of these manuscripts follow Mormon missionaries as far afield A GUIDE TO MORMON MANUSCRIPTS AT THE HUNTINGTON LIBRARY 4 as Hawaii, Scandinavia, and China, while others stay closer to home, recording the spiritual lives of the Saints and the domestic trials and triumphs of the men and women of the Church. Highlights of early Church history records include Oliver Cowdery’s 1834-1838 letterbook, the autobiography of Wandle Mace, and the memoir of Reed Peck (1839), as well as a variety of original letters by Joseph Smith and . Among the dozens of diaries and memoirs covering the western migration are those of Henry William Bigler, Edwin Harley, and Edwin Smout. Conflict between and Gentiles is recorded in, among others, the transcripts of the John D. Lee trials included in the Jacob Boreman Papers, the papers of U.S. Army Corps of Topographical Engineers John Williams Gunnison and Edward G. Beckwith, and a journal of Henry Ballard, which recalls his experiences in the . Women’s voices are heard through the diaries of Eliza Roxcy Snow, Mary Minerva Dart Judd, , and Lucy Hannah Flake; in autobiographies and memoirs by Sophronia Moore Martin, Mary Ann Stearns Winters, and Sarah Studevant Leavitt; in the poetry of Ellis Reynolds Shipp; in the letters of Maria Bidgood Jarman Ford Barnes, who fled an abusive, polygamous marriage; and from a multitude of other journals, reminiscences, and letters. is examined in the notes for Kimball Young’s Isn’t One Wife Enough? and Mary Bennion Powell’s How I Was Affected by Polygamy, among others. Missionary work is recorded in a wide range of memoirs and diaries, including the papers of Ira Hinckley (New Zealand), the daybook of Peter Hansen (Scandinavia), Albert Jarman’s correspondence in the Jarman Family Papers (), and in the facsimile diaries of Harvey H. Cluff (Hawaii, Great Britain), John Stillman Woodbury (Hawaii), and (China). Other manuscripts trace the stories of Mormon immigrants from England (William Marsden, James Farmer, Benjamin Platt), Scotland (William Richardson), Denmark (John Nielsen), Sweden (Helena Rosbery), Switzerland (Jean Frederic Loba), and Canada (Jesse W. Crosby), while still others describe topics as diverse as interactions between Mormons and Native Americans (James Holt, Ruby Lamont, George Washington Bean), the running of settlements (United Order of Oak City, United Order of Panguitch), and views on healing and medicine (Elias Hicks Blackburn, Priddy Meeks). The collections are rounded out by a variety of 20th century biographies, essays, and theses discussing and debating Mormon historical and theological topics.

For a thorough history of the Mormon manuscript collections at the Huntington, see “Studying the Saints: Mormon Sources at the Huntington Library” by Peter J. Blodgett, in Mormon Americana: A Guide to Sources and Collections in the (BYU Studies, 1995). Users interested in Mormon manuscript collections in general may also wish to consult the Guide to Mormon Autobiographies and Diaries by ( Press, 1977). Potential users of the Huntington’s historical manuscript collections should also be aware of its 1978 publication, Guide to American Historical Manuscripts at the Huntington Library. Although many collections acquired since its date of issue are not listed in the volume, it does provide concise descriptions for many of the Huntington’s hundreds of collections within the broad field of American history. Further details about such collections may also be found in the Huntington’s online library catalog at http://catalog.huntington.org.

A GUIDE TO MORMON MANUSCRIPTS AT THE HUNTINGTON LIBRARY 5

OVERVIEW OF MORMON MANUSCRIPTS

The majority of Mormon manuscripts at the Huntington were acquired individually and do not belong to larger collections. Therefore, these items have been grouped together to form a single, artificial (not sharing the same provenance or function) collection known as the Mormon File. The Mormon File consists primarily of individual manuscripts such as letters, diaries, autobiographies, and reminiscences. Individual single manuscripts, both originals and facsimiles, have been arranged alphabetically by author and housed together in 16 boxes. Manuscripts whose size or fragile condition caused them to be individually boxed or bound are housed separately. In many cases, items loaned to the Huntington by private individuals and institutions were copied or microfilmed, and the Huntington has over 120 bound photostatic facsimiles and over 190 microfilm reels containing diaries, autobiographies, and memoirs, among other writings. All Mormon manuscripts, facsimiles, and microfilm acquired by the Huntington as of August 2015 have been cataloged and subject indexed in the Huntington’s online catalog. All microfilm reels have been digitized and are available for viewing as PDFs on the Huntington Digital Library website at http://hdl.huntington.org, under the and the West tab.

In addition to these single items, the Huntington holds a variety of discrete collections focused on Mormon history. These include both small (fewer than 40 pieces) groups and large collections, some specifically Mormon-centered and some with a significant amount of Mormon-related content. Each large collection is listed in this guide with a brief abstract of its contents, and each has a finding aid in the repository, although the comprehensiveness of these finding aids varies according to library standards in place at the time of cataloging. As the Huntington’s digital initiatives continue to expand, all of these finding aids will also be made available electronically, either through the Online Archive of California (OAC), a feature of the California Digital Library available at http://findaid.oac.cdlib.org/institutions/, or in PDF format on the Huntington Digital Library website, accessible at http://hdl.huntington.org.

While most of the Huntington’s Mormon items have been arranged into the Mormon File or into collections specifically related to Mormon history, some manuscripts relating to Mormon topics may be found in other collections, such as the Papers of Albert B. Fall (regarding Mormon colonists in ) or Francis Lieber (views of Mormons from outside the community of Saints). In this guide, these items have been listed alphabetically by author and with reference to the collection in which they reside. Also included are non-Mormon collections containing a significant amount of Mormon-related material, such as the Papers of George and Helen Beattie (Mormons in California) and Otis R. “Dock” Marston (Mormon history in the Western United States). In these instances, Mormon-related manuscripts have been listed individually, but it should not be assumed that the entire collection relates to Mormon subjects.

As of August 2015, all identified Mormon manuscripts held by the Huntington have been cataloged and assigned unique call numbers. Each of these items also has an entry in the Huntington’s online library catalog (http://catalog.huntington.org/), which is searchable by subject headings established by the Library of Congress. Abstracts of content and additional information about every item listed in this guide may be found in the online catalog. A general record for the A GUIDE TO MORMON MANUSCRIPTS AT THE HUNTINGTON LIBRARY 6

Mormon File, c.1805-1995, contains a link to the more than 500 Mormon-related records in the online catalog.
