Nauvoo House Association.

The Nauvoo House Association was incorporated in February 1841 for the purpose of constructing a public house in Nauvoo, Illinois. Capital was raised from sale of stock. Original committee members were George Miller, Lyman Wight, Peter Haws, and John Snyder. Construction was halted in March 1844, but was recommenced in April 1845, at which time George A. Smith and Amasa M. Lyman replaced Lyman Wight and John Snyder. Clerks were Ephraim Potter, James Sloan, and Lucian R. Foster. A few later daybook entries were made by William Clayton.
