Most of the immigrants pictured are Danish, Swedish, or Norwegian converts to the LDS Church, while others were taken in Utah, and may be members of the LDS missions to those countries. Some of the portraits are unidentified and are listed by photographer. Several studio portraits in the collection were taken by H. Maartmann (Christiania, Norway).
