Who's Who in the Doctrine & Covenants
What do Daniel Stanton, Burr Riggs, and Ziba Peterson have in common with Joseph Smith? For one, they are all mentioned by name in the Doctrine and Covenants.

Knowing more about the life of someone who is mentioned in the Doctrine and Covenants can add to your understanding of the revelation. More important, perhaps, it is evidence that the Lord was aware of the personal lives of the men and women He called to His service.

From Major Noble Ashley to Joseph Young, each name mentioned is the key to a hidden history and personal testimony. Unlock a new dimension of the Doctrine and Covenants in
