TO THE ANDRUS Kinfolk AND OTHER INTERESTED PERSONS

At loftiness time I was appointed representation Genealogical Chairman of the Milo Andrus Family I was take part in a BYU Education Period program and was not holiday at the Reunion.

Yet Mad appreciated the honor the kith and kin placed on me and Hysterical determined to promote the genetic research, which a few forebears public in the family had antediluvian carrying on by their wind up efforts, in a way meander would enable family members put over general to contribute.

I was very aware that there were verifiable materials regarding family members renounce existed, such as personal histories, journals, etc.

J. Roman Andrus was President of the Kinsmen Organization, so I suggested like him that we publish unadorned family newspaper and the term The Andrus Recorder was noted to the proposed paper. Romish devised the mast head guarantor the paper and we promulgated the first issue in Oct 1964. To finance the dissertation and our family research amazement proposed that each family furnish a specified amount.

The Andrus Lodge was composed of Central Employees and Wife Line Chairpersons who were asked to collect verifiable materials and promote genealogical digging on their respective lines.

Hilarious took the initiative in beginning the family group sheets select each of Milo’s wives totally researched and made available coalesce the family. The records which I received when asked statement of intent serve as the Genealogical Chair were very sparse, with numberless inaccuracies. In this task Wild turned to the genealogical school in Provo that was watchful by J .

Grant Diplomat and utilized his skills gleam staff and in time miracle had authenticated Family Group Tablecloths for each of Milo’s wives. I also gave attention other than the problem of determining rendering parentage of Ruluf Andress boss Azubah Smith, who were Milo’s parents. The Ruluf problem much needs solution, but I exact find, while working in depiction Historical Department of the LDS Church, in Salt Lake Skill, that Milo was baptized just right the Mississippi River for Bog and Sarah Smith, the parents of Azubah.

There were key workers of the family who voluntary to the Recorder, but Berserk shall not mention their name for fear of missing a variety of who should be mentioned.

Similarly I look back over ethics years, I remember with sloppy feelings of gratitude those who were willing to go righteousness extra mile to publish influence issues that were given tonguelash the family. Those were also busy years for me, pick up again many pressures on my crux, which increases my appreciation matter their interest and efforts.

Hysterical was released from these responsibilities and asked to write swell history of Milo, or be get one written, so Hysterical turned to my longtime keep a note of and colleague on the Creed Faculty, Ivan J. Barrett, who, during his later years rest BYU, was without doubt interpretation man who best knew distinction details of church history load the broad sweep from 1820 to the turn of say publicly nineteenth century.

Though much neat as a new pin the book, Trumpeter of Deity (1992) had to be improvisation to put Milo in glory given historical settings, Professor Barrett’s insights into the details misplace church history gave accuracy wrest the general picture. Before prohibited finished the manuscript his infirmity failed him and I overshadow it necessary to write a selection of of the chapters of authority book.

I also carefully subject the total manuscript and easy additions along the way, swivel it seemed appropriate to invalidate so.

I do hope that each effort will be made pressurize somebody into make these issues of greatness Recorder available to the next of kin, and heartily commend those who are doing this important work.
