Warren A. Jennings

Warren A. Jennings taught U.S. history for many years at Southwest Missouri State University. His Ph.D. dissertation, “Zion Is Fled: The Expulsion of the Mormons from Jackson County, Missouri” (University of Florida, 1962), remains the most comprehensive study available on the early Missouri period of Church history. His family appreciates the efforts of Brian Q. Cannon, William G. Hartley, and the staff of BYU Studies for the final preparation of this article, on which Dr. Jennings was working at the time of his death in December 1998, in Springfield, Missouri.
