  • Defending Mormonism: the Scandinavian Mission Presidency of Andrew Jenson, 1909–12
    Go Ye into All the World Alexander L. Baugh 14 Defending Mormonism: The Scandinavian Mission Presidency of Andrew Jenson, 1909–12 n December 9, 1908, assistant Church historian Andrew Jenson received Oa letter from Joseph F. Smith, John R. Winder, and Anthon H. Lund, the Church’s First Presidency, notifying him of his appointment to preside over the Scandinavian Mission, headquartered in Copenhagen, Denmark, where he would replace Søren Rasmussen, who had been serving as president since November 1907. It is not known if Jenson anticipated receiving the call, but he accepted the call in spite of the many responsibilities associated with his work in the Historian’s Office. It was expected that he would leave as soon as he could get his affairs in order. The next five weeks were busy ones for the newly called mission president, both at the Historian’s Office and at home. In addition, he set aside time to visit family members and acquaintances and enjoyed farewell dinners and social get-togethers hosted by well-wishers. President Joseph F. Smith formally set apart Andrew Jenson on January 12, 1909. Five days later, Jenson delivered a farewell address to Alexander L. Baugh is a professor of Church history and doctrine at Brigham Young University. Go Ye into All the World a large congregation in the Salt Lake Tabernacle. The following day, January 18, at the Salt Lake train depot, he said his last good-byes to his two wives, Emma and Bertha (the two women were sisters), his immediate family, his colleagues, and Church officials and boarded an eastbound train.

  • Professionalization of the Church Historian's Office
    “There Shall Be A Record Kept Among You:” Professionalization of the Church Historian’s Office J. Gordon Daines III University Archivist Brigham Young University Slide 1: The archival profession came into its own in the 20th century. This trend is reflected nationally with the development of the National Archives and the establishment of the Society of American Archivists. The National Archives provided evidence of the value of trained staff and the Society of American Archivists reached out to records custodians across the country to help them professionalize their skills. National trends were reflected locally across the country. This presentation examines what it means to be a profession and how the characteristics of a profession began to manifest themselves in the Church Historian’s Office of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. It also examines how the recordkeeping practices of the Church influenced acceptance of professionalization. Professionalization and American archives Slide 2: It is not easy to define what differentiates an occupation from a profession. Sociologists who study the professions have described a variety of characteristics of professions but have generated very little consensus on which of these characteristics are the fundamental criteria for defining a profession.1 As Stan Lester has noted “the notion of a ‘profession’ as distinct from a ‘non-professional’ occupation is far from clear."2 In spite of this lack of clarity about what defines a profession, it is still useful to attempt to distill a set of criteria for defining what a profession is. This is particularly true when studying occupations that are attempting to gain status as a profession.

Yet the number of communities which failed was amazingly small. The Latter-day Saints remained at their posts through the most trying times.2 Why should these people leave their old homes to build anew, suffering again the trials of pioneering in an unfriendly country? Ramah was such a Mormon colony. In west central New Mexico, surrounded by a few hundred Navaho Indians, and twenty miles east of the Indian pueblo of Zuni, the settlement was founded as a mission to the Indians. A contemporary of the first Mormon settlements on the Little Colorado River (Sunset, Obed, Brigham City, and Joseph City), Ramah has been the only one of these initial ventures besides Joseph City to survive the struggle against a hostile environment.3 A mountain ridge *Mr. Telling recently received his doctor's degree from Harvard Uni­ versity, and is now serving as history instructor at the University of Massa­ chusetts.

  • The Coming of the Manifesto
    D01OOUE A JOURNAL OF MORMON "mOUGHT THE COMING OF THE MANIFESTO Kenneth W. Godfrey An investigation of the factors which brought about the Manifesto which in turn officially terminated the practice of, if not the belief in, plural mar- riage helps to illuminate at least one process by which revelation comes. Polit- ical and social pressure was brought to bear upon Church leaders, financial sanctions seemed on the verge of destroying the Kingdom of God, and men sustained as prophets, seers and revelators reasoned, sometimes even argued, and sought the Lord in prayer for an answer to their difficulties. That God responded by confirming the rightness of what they had already concluded becomes apparent from the writings of Apostle Abraham H. Cannon, whose diaries bring additional insight to bear upon some very difficult problems. These diaries prompt and perhaps justify another article that has to do with the most publicized of all Mormon practices, plural marriage. Kenneth W. Godfrey is Director of L.D.S. Institutes and Seminaries for Arizona and New Mexico. He lives in Tempe, Arizona, with his wife and family, and holds the Ph.D. in History from Brigham Young University. Our story probably begins as early as 1831. The place is not Utah but New York, yet the setting is somewhat the same because a Mormon prophet was involved in initiating plural marriage, just as one was responsible for its cessation. Another common factor was communication with God, first from man to God and then from God to man. Though the questions were different they were at least the same in that plural marriage was the subject of both prayers.

    Remarks at the Dedication of the Church His- tory Library Chapter 1 Remarks at the Dedication of the Church History Library Elder Marlin K. Jensen Remarks at the dedication of the Church History Library in Salt Lake City on June 20, 2009. ays of dedication are almost always days of celebration and occa- Dsions for expressions of gratitude. This is definitely a great day in the history of Church history! This magnificent new Church History Library has taken fifteen years to plan and nearly four years to build. It will protect the Church’s priceless historical collections—books, pamphlets, periodicals, jour- nals, manuscripts, records, and photographs—against fire, theft, and forces of nature. It provides an open and welcoming gathering place for all who want access to those collections. Many heads, hearts, and hands have been involved in this accomplishment. We express sincere appreciation to all who have assisted in any way. Elder Marlin K. Jensen is Church Historian and Recorder of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. 1 Salt Lake City: The Place Which God Prepared View (ca. 1865) of the building on South Temple Street that housed the Church Historian’s Office from 1856 to 1917. (© Intellectual Reserve, Inc.) The available facilities for housing the Church’s historical enterprise have not always been as grand as the home provided by this new library. During the Church’s early years, record keeping was done in a variety of locations, including the Prophet Joseph Smith’s home, his smoke- house where meat was cured, the Kirtland Printing Office and Temple, an upper room in the red brick store in Nauvoo, and a room in the Nauvoo Temple.

THROUGH A GLASS, DARKLY: THE CHANGING PAST OF COFFEE COUNTY, GEORGIA —————————————————————— A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University —————————————————————— In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts History —————————————————————— By Jonathan David Hepworth December 2012 —————————————————————— Accepted by: Dr. Rod Andrew, Jr., Committee Chair Dr. Paul Christopher Anderson Dr. H. Roger Grant ABSTRACT In 1954, Coffee County, Georgia, commemorated its centennial with a massive celebration that essentially shut down the county seat of Douglas for a week. Parades, fireworks, speeches, and above all a large-scale historical pageant, the “Centurama,” were components of the celebration. The history celebrated in 1954, however, did not necessarily match up with Coffee County’s actual history. This thesis examines the history of Coffee County and its changing nature, looking at politics, economics, and culture. It finds that historical “memory” is not always planned out by society’s elites, but can change as the result of politics, demographic shifts, and commercial gain.
