The Stevenson Family History
Joseph Stevenson (1787-1832) married Elizabeth Stevens and immigrated (after a stay at Gibraltar) in 1828 from England to Brooklyn, New York, moving later to Albany, New York and then to land near Detroit, Michigan. A son, Edward Stevenson (1820-1897), became a Mormon convert (together with his mother) in 1833, and lived in Missouri and Illinois before moving to Salt Lake City, Utah in 1847. Descendants lived in Utah, Idaho, California and elsewhere.
Richards Family History
Edward Richards (1615-1689) immigrated from England to Lynn, Essex County, Massachusetts. Joseph Richards (1762-1840), direct descen- dant in the seventh generation, was born in Southborough, Worcester County, Massachusetts and served in the Revolutionary War. In 1781 he married Rhode Howe, and moved to settle in Berkshire County, Massachusetts. All but two of their surviving children became Mormon converts, and eventually moved to Utah and elsewhere. Ancestors lived in New England and in England.
My Own Pioneers 1830-1918
The three volumes of My Own Pioneers together tell a remarkable story of the desperate pioneer struggles of four generations of the author’s family. Although the memorable historical journey begins seven generations ago, these three volumes of stories focus on four important pioneer generation. They are the culmination of fifteen years of painstaking research as the author carefully reconstructs her family’s pioneer struggles from before 1830 to 1918 using information from family records, journals, memoirs, histories and letters, supplemented by accounts from their pioneer companions, and by Church and other official records. Volume I tells about the author’s once prosperous pioneer fa...
The Mormon People
“From one of the brightest of the new generation of Mormon-studies scholars comes a crisp, engaging account of the religion’s history.”—The Wall Street Journal With Mormonism on the nation’s radar as never before, religious historian Matthew Bowman has written an essential book that pulls back the curtain on more than 180 years of Mormon history and doctrine. He recounts the church’s origins and explains how the Mormon vision has evolved—and with it the esteem in which Mormons have been held in the eyes of their countrymen. Admired on the one hand as hardworking paragons of family values, Mormons have also been derided as oddballs and persecuted as polygamists, heretics, and ze...
Book of Abraham Apologetics
Said to have been dictated by Joseph Smith as a translation of an ancient Egyptian scroll purchased in Kirtland, Ohio, in 1835, the Book of Abraham may be Mormonism’s most controversial scripture. Decades of impassioned discussion began when about a dozen fragments of Smith’s Egyptian papyri, including a facsimile from the Book of Abraham, were found in the New York Metropolitan Museum in 1966. The discovery solved a mystery about the origin of the Egyptian characters that appear in the various manuscript copies of the Book of Abraham from 1835, reproduced from one of the fragments. Some LDS scholars devised arguments to explain what seemed to be clear evidence of Smith’s inability to translate Egyptian. In this book, Dan Vogel not only highlights the problems with these apologetic arguments but explains the underlying source documents in revealing detail and clarity.
