Josiah Edwin Hickman's Diaries
Printed copies of the diaries were provided to a family reunion of Josiah's descendants held at Logan, Utah in 1989 and 1990. One of the copies is owned by Karen Bush of Page, Arizona, who has made its contents available for posting on the Hickman Family website, and also added useful footnotes to journals A through F. These detailed journals span a period of 46 years. Pat Hendricks of Brigham City, Utah has the original journals, and Scrapbook 2. Scrapbook 1 is owned by Josiah S. Whitehead of Hubbard, Oregon.
