Missionaries 1886-1960
This list of missionaries departing from Virgin Valley is not complete. We have tried very hard to find names. We have looked in old school yearbooks, church records, called families and had notices sent to every ward bishop in the Mesquite Nevada Stake. Names can be added through a written request to the Virgin Valley Heritage Museum.
