Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 149 / Wednesday, August 3, 2016 / Notices this time, U.S. Army Officers removed a child’s skull from the massacre site. In 1864, U.S. Army Surgeon, B.A. Clements, forwarded a child’s skull from the Mountain Meadows Massacre to the Army Medical Museum, now the NMHM. The specimen was forwarded in accordance with the Surgeon General’s order for officers to ‘‘collect and to forward . . . all specimens of morbid anatomy, surgical or medical which may be regarded as valuable . . . and other such matters as may prove of interest in the study of military medicine or surgery.’’ Clements was stationed in the region where the massacre occurred during the time of the Army’s 1859 activity. It is believed the skull was passed on to him by others who had participated in the 1859 investigation. In 2009, the NMHM began receiving requests with conflicting perspectives from multiple parties claiming the child’s skull for burial and scientific testing. The parties consulting with the museum include the Mountain Meadows Massacre Descendants (MMMD), the Mountain Meadows Monument Foundation (MMMF), the Mountain Meadows Association (MMA), and Ms. Catherine Baker of North Carolina. The NMHM engaged all prior, interested parties and requested all such parties enter into a joint agreement documenting their consensus on the disposition of the remains. The NMHM has received confirmation of consensus from a majority of all such parties, advocating for the human remains to be buried alongside other victims of the 1857 Mountain Meadows Massacre in Utah.
