Woods: Cemetery Record of William D. Huntington 131 The Cemetery Record of William D. Huntington, Nauvoo Sexton Fred E. Woods When John Butler first visited Commerce (later known as Nauvoo) he recalled, “I asked Brother Joseph what kind of a place it was. He said it was a low, marshy, wet, damp and nasty place, but that if we went to work and improved it, it would become more healthy and the Lord would bless it for our sakes.”1 The Prophet Joseph Smith also stated, “The name of our city (Nauvoo) is of Hebrew origin, and signifies a beautiful situation, or place, carrying with it, also, the idea of rest; and is truly descriptive of the most delightful situation. This place has been objected to by some, on account of the sickness which has prevailed in the summer months.” Yet Joseph expressed his hope that such sickness could be “remedied by draining the sloughs on the adjacent islands in the Mississippi.”2 The Saints did drain the swampy terrain of Nauvoo, but the call of death continued.

  • Non-Mormon Presence in 1880S Utah
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Earth and Mineral Sciences THE WASP IN THE BEEHIVE: NON-MORMON PRESENCE IN 1880S UTAH A Thesis in Geography by Samuel A. Smith c 2008 Samuel A. Smith Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science August 2008 The thesis of Samuel A. Smith was read and approved1 by the following: Deryck W. Holdsworth Professor of Geography Thesis Adviser Roger Downs Professor of Geography Karl Zimmerer Professor of Geography Head of the Department of Geography 1. Signatures on file in the Graduate School. iii Abstract Recent studies have reconsidered the Mormon Culture Region in light of its 1880{1920 transition to American political and economic norms. While these studies emphasize conflicts between the Mormon establishment and the non-Mormon federal government, Mormon/non-Mormon relations within Utah have received little direct attention. Based on religious affiliations recorded in the 1880 federal census of Utah Territory, this study uses historical GIS to visualize the composition of Utah's \Mormon" and \non-Mormon" towns. The results highlight the extensive presence of religious minorities in Utah's settlements. Case studies of farm villages, mining camps, and urban neighborhoods probe the social and economic contexts of non-Mormon presence in Utah. These studies, based on Sanborn maps and city directories, explore the geographical mosaic of Mormon and non-Mormon residence and business activity. These variegated patterns, often absent from historical accounts of the region, enable localized analyses of the ensuing decades of cultural conflict, transformation and assimilation. Keywords: Mormons, non-Mormons, Mormon Culture Region, Utah, 1880 Cen- sus, historical demography.
