E38: Scribe Me to the Moon

After messing around for two episodes, Bryan and Lindsay finally discuss what William Clayton’s journals contain. From messy plural marriage to the nuts and bolts of the city, you can’t know about the history of Nauvoo without learning about William Clayton’s diaries.

    Great episode. I am a descendent of Margaret Moon and William Clayton. I have enjoyed these episodes about William Clayton and eagerly await the next one.

    You mention that we get our best description of the Nauvoo endowment from Clayton’s diary, including the introduction of Peter, James, and John, and the procedure of the husband pulling the wife through the veil. I know that the inclusion of Peter, James, and John was a BY innovation, do we know if the husband/wife veil procedure was too?
