Footnotes
The handwriting of Newel K. Whitney is most prevalent in the daybook. Although he did not serve in an official capacity, Whitney appears to have helped at least in the first weeks of the Safety Society’s operation. Several other individuals also helped keep this record, including Warren Parrish, who became the official clerk of the Kirtland Safety Society between November 1836 and January 1837.
Although most of these transactions involved Kirtland residents, some individuals were from nearby Willoughby or Cleveland, Ohio. Nearly all were Latter-day Saints.
