Mission information taken from &quot;Arza Adams, Chronicle of a Pioneer&quot; by Effie W. Adams. Arza responded to the missionary call he had in January and left for a mission to Canada on July 11, 1839.&nbsp; Upon a request from his wife, he returned home to Quincy, Illinois on June 5, 1840.&nbsp; It is also reported that Arza left Nauvoo on Jan 25 1843 for a mission to Canada and returned June 27, 1843.&nbsp; No mention is made in his journals of a mission to Canada in 1841.&nbsp; He was called on a mission to Green River during a conference held in Salt Lake City, Utah on February, 25, 1856.&nbsp; The call to the Green River Mission meant a call to settle and build up Fort Supply. However, because of the knowledge of Johnston&#39;s army coming to the valley, Fort Supply was abandoned and burned.
