Staker describes the extensive research that went into the restoration of Historic Kirtland. Excavations were performed to discover buried foundations, artifacts, original paint colors, etc. The historical documentation collected from these excavations as well as information in printed materials allowed those involved to restore the buildings very close to the originals.
