Kirtland Camp

The Kirtland Camp was a migration company made up of several hundred Latter-day Saints that traveled from Kirtland, Ohio to northern Missouri starting in the fall of 1838. Those who stayed with the main company settled in Mormon communities in Daviess County, Missouri during the 1838 Mormon War, and shortly afterwards were forced to evacuate the area due to the conflict.
