Summary:  On October 30, 1838, a group of Missouri militia attacked the small Mormon settlement at Haun's Mill on Shoal Creek, killing seventeen men and boys and wounding eleven men, one woman, and one child. The accounts of Joseph Young, Amanda Smith, Willard Gilbert Smith, Austin Hammer, Artemisia Sidnie Meyers, Nathan Kinsman Knight, Thomas McBride, Isaac Laney, Olive Ames, and others eyewitnesses of the massacre and its aftermath are heart-rending and vivid. An important event in Latter-day Saints history that helped mold Mormon attitudes and posturing toward the outside world in following decades, the Haun's Mill Massacre still resonates today in the hearts and minds of Mormons as a manifestation of religious persecution.   Copy/Holding information Collection Call No. Copy Status   Book - Adult NonFiction History US 19th Century 1 Archived Request Copy Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
