''Utah Immigration Card Index, 1847-1868'', Salt Lake City, Utah: Genealogical Society of Utah, 1963. ( | ''Utah Immigration Card Index, 1847-1868'', Salt Lake City, Utah: Genealogical Society of Utah, 1963. (Family History Library films 298440–42.) This is also known as the "Crossing the Plains Index." This is an incomplete but valuable list of the pioneers who crossed the plains before the railroad reached Utah in 1869. It is arranged alphabetically by head of the family. Most of the information has been taken from the Journal History of the Church. See the "[[Utah Church Records|Church Records]]" section of this outline for more information. | ||
Histories of some of the groups who traveled together to Utah have been published. During the 1997 sesquicentennial celebration of the arrival of the pioneers, many new materials were published. Many list the names of those who immigrated. Check the Family History Library Catalog for new histories. The Church History Library of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is creating a computer index. The new index should be more comprehensive. | Histories of some of the groups who traveled together to Utah have been published.
