Introduction
Journal in three versions.
Solomon made three copies of his journal, one each for the families of his three wives.
They vary mainly in the later portion where he gives his families’ genealogical information.
Microfilm copies are on file with the Family History Department of the LDS Church.1
The version here is excerpted quite literally from his personal journal
with minor changes to make the language flow better to our modern ear.
I have added sections and paragraph headings to bring out the logical ordering of the whole.
