I., Died April 15, 1850, at South Cottonwood, Salt Lake County, Utah The Mormon Church has been noted for the numerous posterity of its early scions. No one compares in number of his posterity with John Tanner who arrived in Utah m 1848 and died in 1850. The Reverend George C. Tanner has given 'us a brief statement of the manner in Which the data for his book was Collected. Following his explanation there is included brief excerpts from his book. These excerpts connect the earliest family record with John Tanner. The responsibility for the large undertaking in writing the gene alogy of John Tanner IS due to his great grandson Maurice Tan ner, whose pains -taking care and persistent determination has brought the present Genealogy to its completion. The Genealogy has been years in the course of preparation. Replies to letters of inquiry have not always been ungrudgingly given, and but for the love and pride for his ancestors by the author of this book, its completion might have been postponed for many years. Maurice Tanner has repeatedly expressed his acknowledgments to Apostle Franc1s M. Lyman for the latter' s accumulation of data respecting the descendants of John Tanner. Much of this data has been collected during visits that President F. M. Lyman made across the continent. At a meeting of the Tanner association. An executive committee consisting of J. M. Tanner, Rollin R. Tanner and Nathan A. Tanner was chosen. Maurice Tanner was chosen president of the as sociation, Earl Pingree Tanner its genealogist and Nathaniel H. Tan ner i'ts secretary and treasurer. Some names of the descendants of John Tanner the president was unable to secure and all the branches of the family could not be included in this volume without great extra work. It was quite impossible to obtain them as this volume goes to press. A volume of considerable size will be made from the names al ready collected. The names of the remaining descendants may at a future time be obtained when the association appoints someone for the duty of completing the work of the Genealogy of John Tanner.
