From 1846 to 1890, thousands of Mormons migrated to Utah from the eastern US. For the first two decades they went by wagon trains. Omaha was a major stop as it was a good place to over-winter before tackling the balance of the journey with warmer weather. Exhibits here detail the hardships of the journey.
