Roll and minute book of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers
Manuscripts
This roll and minute book of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers belonged to Camp Arrowhead, in San Bernardino County, California. The majority of the entries were from the early 1960s. This volume includes each member by name, along with registration numbers, husband's initials, and months at which they were present in DUP meetings. Recorded in the minutes were announcements, discussions, financial reports, and motions of the meetings. In addition to usual business matters, history lessons and readings about pioneer history were common throughout the ledger. Highlights in this volume were visits from long-time president of DUP, Kate B. Carter. In one meeting on January 25, 1961, Carter discussed plans for the promotion of new camps in the area and methods for continued research and preservation of America's western heritage.

Manuscripts
This collection is comprised of the research material collected by historian John Cumming in his study of Michiganders who went west in the 19th century. The collection includes transcriptions of articles, diaries, and letters written by emigrants from Michigan to the American West, many of which were published in Michigan newspapers. The dates cited refere to the date of the original from which the transcriptions were created. Often the location of the originals is noted on the transcriptions. Also included are several items written by John Cumming. There is one folder that contains original letters from the Gold Rush era: Box 4 (13): Gold Rush Notes: contains original manuscript items and letters.
