19 MAR. 2024 · Church leaders were determined to distance the Church as far as possible from those who persisted in the practice on the Church’s periphery and make it apparent to everyone, both inside and outside the Church, that polygamy was no longer acceptable. These leaders influenced stiffer laws against polygamy and initiated surveillance to discover polygamists or would-be polygamists within Church ranks and provided their evidence to the state.

10 MAR. 2023 · This presentation is about Nauvoo era sources documenting Joseph Smith's plural wives. It first explores 5 private contemporary sources documenting plural marriages that Joseph Smith entered into, then 3 contemporary antagonistic sources that identify a number of Joseph Smith's plural wives. Then we look at how these antagonistic sources are supported by other sources including the early private record of proxy sealings in the Nauvoo Temple in 1846. This is not the totality of contemporary evidence for Joseph Smith's plural marriages, just some specific examples.
