Time line accuracy?

I recently received a time line profile for my great grandfather Caleb Hyrum Baldwin. In reviewing the time line it appears that a very important link is missing. Sometime after 1860, while Caleb Clark Baldwin and his son Caleb Hyrum Baldwin were living in the Provo, Utah area, they were called on a mission to the "Muddy" in Nevada. Only after this mission was dissolved did the family move and establish residence in Beaver, Utah.

I have unsuccessfully tried numerous times to find the documentation of the mission call and would ask for your help in locating any documentation. Caleb Hyrum told stories of the hardships endured while serving on the Muddy to my father, Aubra Baldwin, and subsequently, retold to me. I have no questions concerning the fact that they were called and served but documentation is severely limited and or unavailable.

If Family Search has any information on this subject, I would greatly appreciate knowing about it.

    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    [ And, I happen to be a Member of the Church ... ]

    Not that I can be of much help/assistance ...

    But ...

    As an aside ...

    I just tried the "Missionary Database" (1830-1940) of the Church.

    https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/landing/missionary-database

    https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/landing/missionary-database

    I did not find either, "Caleb Clark BALDWIN"; or, his son "Caleb Hyrum BALDWIN".

    But, I did find a reference to the Mission of the Father of "Caleb Clark BALDWIN", "Caleb BALDWIN" KWJY-YZR

    https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/chd/individual/caleb-baldwin-1791

    I know that this is not who you are looking for; but, I just thought that this may be of interest.

    Plus:

    If you have not already, you could always try:

    Church History

    https://history.churchofjesuschrist.org/

    https://www.mymission.com/lds-missions/family-and-church-history-headquarters-mission

    For some help/assistance or guidance/direction.

    Good Luck

    I hope this helps, somewhat.

    ps: G'Day 'Cuz', I am related to ALL three (x3) of those "BALDWIN's"

    Brett, thank you for your comment. I was aware of the missionary record of Caleb Baldwin. My line comes from Caleb to Caleb Clark to Caleb Hyrum to Ira Baldwin to Aubra Baldwin. Can you tell me where you are related?

    Thanks again,

    AC Baldwin
