notes: Was this a continuation of the earlier Norwegian LaSalle Branch? Hints of location found in genealogical records of Richard Salisbury, the branch president, and other members. Most known members appear to be recent British convert immigrants, likely working to raise money to continue to Utah. It looks like the entire branch moved to Utah in the Moses Clawson Company (left Keokuk 16 May 1853), which included many members of the St. Louis Conference
