| Title | 1833 Lawsuit Gets Mormons' Notice |
| Abstract | As part of a joint local records preservation project between Jackson County and the Missouri State Archives in Jefferson City, legal documents concerning acts of violence against Mormon settlers have been discovered. The papers concern the tarring and feathering of Mormons Edward Partridge, bishop, and Charles Allen and the destruction of the offices of the Evening and Morning Star, the Mormon newspaper in Independence. Those involved, among others, were Benjamin Majors, Samuel Owens, Richard McCarty, and Richard Fristoe. |
