Calendar of Documents, 31 May 1843

Nauvoo City Council Meeting, 31 May 1843
 
Calendar of Documents
The following is a calendar of documents known to be related to this meeting of the city council. In cases where there are multiple versions of documents, particularly city ordinances, all versions are listed here, with links to versions that are extant. Documents are listed on this calendar only when there is evidence that a separate document was created. Because it is not clear that parliamentary procedure was consistently followed in city council meetings, mere mention of a motion in the minutes is not sufficient evidence that a separate document was created as a result. For more information, see Introduction to Nauvoo City Council Records.
