"How did the four-year-long war impact the Mormon emigration system? Did numbers shrink? Did they increase because of Joseph Smith’s Civil War prophecy? Were ships available? Did departure and arrival ports change? How available were railroad cars? Did routes across the States change? Did war conditions in Missouri disrupt rail travel there? Were emigrants considered secessionists because of perceived Mormon disloyalty that caused the Utah War? Given needs the armies had, how available were wagons and teams for emigrants at the outfitting camps? What encounters did Mormon emigrants have, if any, with Union or Confederate soldiers? The following yearly histories of Latter-day Saint emigration during the Civil War years provide answers to those questions." [Author]
