Abstract: Papers of Theodore Albert Schroeder, the lawyer, writer, and collector of documents
concerning Mormonism, whose papers reflect his deep concern for the separation between
church and state. Included are personal papers and records of Schroeder's Utah law practice,
1855-1901; and a portion of his collections on Mormonism, 1841-1900. The collections on
Mormonism include correspondence, the bulk of which consists of the Cobb family papers,
1841-1897, primarily concerning the liaison of Augusta Adams Cobb and Brigham Young; the
Major General's Record Book, concerning Nauvoo Legion military organization and preparedness
in the Great Salt Lake District, 1852-1866; George F. Gibbs' letterbook, relating to
missionary activity in England by Young's secretary, 1871-1873; the Patriarchal Blessings
Book, 1845-1846; notes and writings; a directory of polygamists; handwritten copies and
clippings concerning Brigham Young's will, 1877-1879; and clippings, printed circulars,
leaflets, notices, and petitions relating to polygamy and Utah politics.
