Footnotes

  1. TEXT: Checkmarks inserted later in graphite, likely noting that the information in each column was copied onto the recorder’s annual report to the city council. (Report, James Sloan and Henry G. Sherwood to Nauvoo City Council, ca. 30 Jan. 1843.)

  2. TEXT: This notation is written vertically in the column.

  3. TEXT: This notation is written vertically in the column.

  4. TEXT: This notation is written vertically in the 22 April column.

  5. TEXT: Apparently, Sloan made dots to indicate the person was present at the council meeting and later filled in how much of the day they were present for. (See Sloan’s notation in the last column.)
