I was fortunate enough to have read his journal & was raised hearing stories about him and my great grandfather, Andrew Jr.<br /> However, I was not raised in the church and am a fairly recent convert. I had no idea Andrew was such a prolific writer until I started researching him.

When I do, I'll post it here. The biggest hole is definately 1806 to 1875 which would include everything for Wilford Woodruff, David Patten, Warren Parish, and the like.<br /><br />Then, of course, there is a whole lot after 1905 too.Brucehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01543519825711760773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645379631135547997.post-90666195816168451852010-01-20T08:15:20.550-06:002010-01-20T08:15:20.550-06:00Wonderful resource, as is anything Andrew Jenson w...Wonderful resource, as is anything Andrew Jenson was involved in.<br /><br />And nice to see that you've managed to cover most of the mentioned events!<br /><br />Are you going to write a chronology of the church in Tennessee? How many other events do you think you would mention as highlights of the history? Any events between 1806 and 1875? :)Amy Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04037263182287268748noreply@blogger.com
