Explore dozens of recently digitized collections to enable your research wherever you are in the world.

Below, you’ll find June’s list of recently digitized materials to explore in the Church History Catalog, such as a “sketch” (her choice of words—it’s really quite an extensive book) of the life of Patience Delilah Pierce Palmer, an early Saint who joined the Church in New York in 1835. She and her husband experienced many notable Church history events firsthand, including mob violence in Missouri and the resulting exodus westward.
