Two key memories Joseph Smith left for consolidating a collective memory of his first vision went unpublished until the 1960s. Church historians Willard Richards and George Smith and their successors did not select them for consolidation by the saints nor relate them meaningfully to their shared story. That these sources could have informed Mormon collective memory shows that nothing about its consolidation was foregone or fixed. Everything hung on the unpredictable and unplanned combination of influences that led Smith to remember and privilege some memories above others as he did, and his followers to select from and relate to those memories as they did.
