Old patriarchal blessings

Is anyone aware of online resources that archive historical patriarchal blessings? I recall some real over-the-top promises in those 19th century and early 20th century blessings.

It'd be cool to start a searchable archive that documents the early blessings that Joseph, Sr. did for money, all the way up to today's examples.

The church archives has them indexed. I looked some up while

doing family history research for people whose ancestry was LD$. I don't recall how complete their collection is - probably as good as TSCC's history of record keeping.

Topped because I want to know too

if there is an online link or if you have to go to Salt Lake for them. I think it would be really interesting to see what they were promised that didn't happen and how alike they are. But it wouldn't benefit the Morg any so maybe you have to jump through hoops to read them.
