Church Chronology, Field Notes written by Andrew Jenson

(22) organized companies left Wyoming during its existence as an out fitting post for the L.D.S.
emigration It is estimated that these companies contained about 6,500 souls and probably about 500
more traveled with the freight trains (from
Nebraska City) being employed as teamsters or
who as passengers took advantage of the opportuni-
ties thus afforded to make the journey cheaply.
