Leigh family papers, 1888-1891.

Journal of William David Leigh, documenting his service as a Mormon missionary in Great Britain between November 1888 and February 1891. Also includes two books by Ella Berry Leigh, William David Leigh's daughter-in-law, about her Berry family history and about her husband, William Henry Leigh, son of William David Leigh. The first is titled "Garnered Memories by Ella B. Leigh," and the second is called "Ella Berry Leigh Scrapbook." Both are approximately 50 pages. Also includes a certificate, dated 31 January 1891, from Brigham Young and Reed Smoot to "Elder Wm Leigh," telling him to be in Liverpool, England on 6 February 1891, presumably for his return trip home. Also includes a 4 page folio with the birth and death dates of Reverend Edmund Leigh on them, as well as other Leigh family history.
