Though the featured version of Revelation, 9 Feb. 1831 [D&C 42:1–72], gives the final words of this question as “when & how,” other manuscript versions have “where & how.” Significantly, the revelatory answer to the question explains “where” the Ohio believers were to make preparations for the settlement of the immigrants but not “when.” (See Revelation, 9 Feb. 1831, in Revelation Book 1, p. 67; and Gilbert, Notebook, [22].)

In June 1831, a revelation directed more than two dozen elders to accompany JS to Missouri, where, they were told, the precise location for “the City” (Zion) would be revealed. From fall 1830, it was known that Zion was to be built somewhere near Missouri’s western border. (Revelation, 6 June 1831 [D&C 52:5, 43]; Revelation, Sept. 1830–B [D&C 28:9].)
