As soon as Brigham Young announced plans in October 1845 to leave Nauvoo, preparations began. Nauvoo's residents fitted themselves out for the journey. They built wagons, purchased oxen, and laid in supplies. They offered their homes and farms to buyers at reduced prices. To ensure an orderly migration, Church leaders organized the people into emigrant companies of tens, fifties and hundreds.
