These immigrants were spread across the 4th,5th, and 6th generation within my line. Within their family pages I cover each of the individual journeys. Here I will try to generalize what they had in common and discuss them all together? This article on LDS Emigration covers the early years of the Church as it relates to the emigration of the saints. The mormon trails is another excellent web resource. This article on the early LDS missionary efforts in the British Isles provides some good source in the bibliography section. The July 1987 Ensign has many good articles about the LDS Churchs beginnings in England. I have produced two google maps. One that shows where my ancestor homes were at the time. And another that showing locations of majors LDS historical sites. Some also helped in the colonization efforts.
