This biographical register includes everyone who was called on a mission in August 1852 or who left with that same group of missionaries. Most of the men in this register were called in August and left in the following weeks. A few missionaries were called but never served, and some of them were called in April 1852 but left with the August group months later.

Biographical entries include basic information, including full name, birth and death information, parents, and dates of key life events. Given the nature of the missionaries’ callings, emphasis is given to the religious roles a person played. Many of the men found here married several women. Rather than trace their multiple marriages, the biographical entries simply state the fact of their having practiced plural marriage. Full identifying information is given for geographical places, including county information, with two exceptions: international places are most often listed without county or province, and Salt Lake City is given without full identifying information (Salt Lake Co., Utah Territory). Because of the shifting political designation of the Latter-day Saints’ new home in the Intermountain West, listings do not usually distinguish between Deseret, Utah Territory, and Utah; the term Utah is used throughout.

Because of space constraints, this biographical register is published without source citations. The files used to compile each biography are available in the General Epistles biographical collection at the Church History Library in Salt Lake City. Additionally, many other resources are available for further biographical research of nineteenth-century Latter-day Saints. Four important electronic resources are maintained by the Church History Department: the Joseph Smith Papers (josephsmithpapers.org/reference/people), the Early Mormon Missionaries database (history.lds.org/missionary), the Mormon Pioneer Overland Travel database (history.lds.org/overlandtravels), and the Journal of George Q. Cannon (churchhistorianspress.org/george-q-cannon/people).
