BYU Studies has been accumulating research on several prominant church historical
sites over the years and we feel it's time to put our work together in an organized
way to assist those with special interests in these areas. Whether you are visiting
one of these places or just interested in learning more about them, we hope you
find this section helpful. While this page highlights Nauvoo, IL, we are already
planning sections devoted to Kirtland, OH and Palmyra, NY. These pages will continue
to be updated with current and relevant information even after the focus has changed
to a new church history location.
These listings reference articles found in BYU Studies journal archives about Nauvoo,
IL. Many of them are available for download. Click on the links to the left of the article title to view the journal or article.
