- Q5130143 abstract "Clayton's Guide, Clayton's Emigrant Guide, or as when published The Latter-Day Saints' Emigrants' Guide published by Missouri Republican Steam Power Press, Chambers & Knapp, 1848 and written by William Clayton, was one of a number of very popular guidebooks written to support the westward expansion of the United States in the mid-nineteenth century when organized emigrant wagon trains began to form in large numbers at various river ports on the Missouri River.Spurred by violent and repressive religious persecution, the Mormon migration west to Utah added two new river boat ports to the palette of jumping off point towns supporting outfitting of settler parties heading westward — Nauvoo, Illinois whose state legislature spurred the Mormon Fathers to call for a migration, then the heart of Mormonisim in the world, and Kanesville in the recently organized Iowa Territory. For teamsters and emigrant parties interested in traveling from the settled and comparatively civilized eastern United States east of the Missouri River through the Midwest (most territory technically still belonged by treaty to Amerindian tribes) to one of the far west U.S. possessions following the various northern plains Emigrant Trails joining or spinning off from the 1830s fur trader opened Oregon Trail The Emigrant Trails became increasing less relevant from the 1869 completion of the transcontinental railway, especially after the 1880s-1890s, but the well explored, relatively safe roads and their guide were still in popular use into the 1910s, and again, at least along local stretches, saw significant traffic during the dust bowl disaster spawned migration from the midwest in the 1930s.The Saints' Emigrant Guide specifically was a detailed guide to waypoints along the full length of the Mormon Trail expressly for and developed from the Mormon migration to the Mexican territory of Utah where church fathers hoped to practice their religion unmolested, a migration which began after Illinois achieved statehood with the dispatch of a trickle of advance parties heading out along the newly opened Mormon road early in 1846, and which became an recommended, well organized, fully church sanctioned movement in 1847 despite the outbreak of the Mexican-American war — one result of which was this guidebook published in 1848 in Saint Louis.Clayton's Guide was one of the best published containing odometer measured distances both from trailheads, but distances to destinations, allowing parties to better plan where they could camp, find animal fodder, find water, and pace their travel. In addition to a number of accurate sextant measured co-ordinates, Clayton's Guide also published many elevations taken at landmarks along the way.The Oregon Trail and California Trails shared Missouri River wagon train organization and outfitting towns, and traveled the south bank of the Platte and North Platte Rivers until the Mormon trail along the north banks of the same rivers, joined in a common Migrant Trail road at Fort John".
