• Notes

  NAUVOO RECORDS: Nauvoo Temple Endowment Register, pg 1 Members, LDS, 1830-1848, by Susan Easton Black, Vol 44, p 66 Record of Baptisms for the Dead, Nauvoo, by Black & Black, Vol 5, pp 2887-2889 NAME VARIANT: Sarah WATERMAN Name transcribed from Winter Quarters Wards Membership Lists 1846 - 1848. Taken from a variety of historical sources. They are not complete, and because of the difficulty reading handwriting, may not be entirely accurate. Most of the lists seem to be from the winter of 1846 - 47, but some are from later. In addition, people often moved to better housing, thus changing wards. Sources for these lists are: bishop's reports, high council meeting minutes, tithing records, and 'census' reports of widow, soldier's wives and other unassigned members of wards. The original records are available at the Historical Department, Archives Division, of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Salt Lake City Utah. Note: Stated in record above; "11th Ward. A feast made by the sisters and Bishops for the widows and orphans and wives of those whose husbands are in the army. (Apparently sometime in 1847). Sister Phelps made 4 bread" Family Group Record by Nauvoo Land and Records NAUVOO RECORDS: Women of the Nauvoo Relief Society, MHS, Vol 3, No 1, 2002, p 170 Nauvoo Temple Endowment Register, p 1 Members, LDS, 1830-1848, by Susan Easton Black, Vol 44, p 66 Record of Baptism for the Dead, Nauvoo, Black & Black, Vol 5, pp 2887-2889 NAME Name: Sarah Watterman FATHER: David Basset Waterman MOTHER: Jerusha Case
