I’ve tried my best to keep true to the original spelling, punctuation, and capitalizations, and found in this record. Some words were extremely hard to read, so if you have a copy of this document & you find I have made a mistake then please, let me know and corrections will be made. A copy of this same inventory can be found in the LDS Library located in Salt Lake City, UT.
