My organization (Sons of Utah Pioneers) will be doing some research training at RootsTech 2022 next year & I could include some video footage on the Overland Pioneer Database, but I need to speak with a representative from that department.

Thanks,

LaRon Taylor

    The Pioneer Database project began more than 30 years ago as staff at the Church History Library began to explore ways to help researchers better understand the experience of the Latter-day Saints as they crossed the plains to the Great Basin between the years 1847 and 1868. The database now contains information on more than 61,000 pioneers and 384 wagon and handcart companies.
