Mulivai Purcell was called in 1970 by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to be the genealogical coordinator for Samoa. He took a tape recorder and cassette tapes to the chiefs of many of the villages in Western Samoa. He asked them to provide the genealogies and histories of the families in their villages. They agreed because he was a respected educator, and they knew him by name. He transcribed the tapes and then oversaw his son type up the transcriptions. Volume 1 provides the genealogies (names only, no dates or places) and histories of 145 families; volume 2, 243 families. | Mulivai Purcell was called in 1970 by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to be the genealogical coordinator for Samoa.
