Dear Family,

The attached photo purports to be a desk belonging to Hyrum Smith. When checking with the LDS Archives, however, they tell me that the provenance on this desk is not strong and that their catalog on this desk reads “Possibly has to do with Hyrum Smith.” I am wondering if we can ask the family if there is anyone who might have information on this desk and its provenance? If so would would they contact the Hyrum Smith Family Association with that information? Thank you for your consideration.
