Book excerpt: Ann Mariah Bowen (1834-1924) was born at Betheny, Genessee County, New York, the daughter of Israel Bowen (1805-1847) and Charlotte Louisa Durham Bowen (1801-1884). Her parents joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and migrated to Nauvoo, Illinois, to join the saints between 1836 and 1843. They settled at Bonaparte, Van Buren County, Iowa, just across the river from Nauvoo. They later migrated west with the Mormon pioneers, stopping for awhile at Winter Quarters, Iowa, where Israel Bowen died. The rest of the family migrated to Utah in 1851. Mariah married Anson Call (1810-1890) in 1851at Salt Lake City as his second wife. They had six children, 1852-1866, born at Fillmore, Call's Fort, Provo and Bountiful, Utah. They were divorced in 1868. The children stayed with Anson, except for the baby, who Mariah kept until she was six, when Anson sent for her. Ann Mariah married 2) William (Billy) Lloyd. They had two children, 1871-1874, born in southern Utah. After Billy Lloyd death, Ann Mariah probably lived with her mother at Springville, Utah until her mother's death in 1885. She then moved to a rock house on the Anson Call estate in Bountiful, Utah. From 1904 until the end of her life in 1924, she lived with and near family members.

Download or read book Solemn Covenant written by B. Carmon Hardy and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his famous Manifesto of 1890, Mormon church president Wilford Woodruff called for an end to the more than fifty-year practice of polygamy. Fifteen years later, two men were dramatically expelled from the Quorum of Twelve Apostles for having taken post-Manifesto plural wives and encouraged the step by others. Evidence reveals, however, that hundreds of Mormons (including several apostles) were given approval to enter such relationships after they supposedly were banned. Why would Mormon leaders endanger agreements allowing Utah to become a state and risk their church's reputation by engaging in such activities--all the while denying the fact to the world? This book seeks to find the answer through a review of the Mormon polygamous experience from its beginnings. In the course of national debate over polygamy, Americans generally were unbending in their allegiance to monogamy. Solemn Covenant provides the most careful examination ever undertaken of Mormon theological, social, and biological defenses of "the principle". Although polygamy was never a way of life for the majority of Latter-day Saints in the nineteenth century, Carmon Hardy contends that plural marriage enjoyed a more important place in the Saints' restorationist vision than most historians have allowed. Many Mormons considered polygamy a prescription for health, an antidote for immorality, and a key to better government. Despite intense pressure from the nation to end the experiment, because of their belief in its importance and gifts, polygamy endured as an approved arrangement among church members well into the twentieth century. Hardy demonstrates how Woodruff's Manifesto of 1890 evolved from a tactic to preservepolygamy into a revelation now used to prohibit it. Solemn Covenant examines the halting passage followed by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as it transformed itself into one of America's most vigilant champions of the monogamous way.

Download or read book The Mormon Military Experience written by Sherman L. Fleek and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2023-04-12 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mormon military experience is unique in American history. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) is the only denomination to field military units for its own support and purpose rather than national interests, an effort which began in Missouri in 1838 and lasted through the Spanish American War of 1898. From World War I onward, however, the military exceptionalism of the LDS Church faded and Mormon soldiers came to serve national interests as loyal citizens alongside their fellow Americans. The Mormon Military Experience: 1838 to the Cold War is the first book to present a historical overview of the Mormon military experience. Sherman Fleek and Robert Freeman tell this unique story of how the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has experienced war and military service and of their teachings concerning participation in armed conflict. The LDS Church’s distinct relationship between religious life and military service is rooted in its adherence to the Book of Mormon and its unique doctrine based in ancient and then-modern revelations from church leaders. Religious and military exceptionalism went hand in hand during the nineteenth century, when LDS Church leaders dictated when and how members would serve in armed conflict. Mormon militiamen were often more loyal to church interests and the guidance of LDS leaders than they were to government policy, from mustering of the Mormon Battalion during the Mexican War to orchestrating the armed effort during the Utah War of 1857–1858 to serving as Civil War volunteers in the West. Similarly, they followed Church leaders’ teachings not to serve in the Civil War’s bloody campaigns in the East. While LDS leaders adapted church practices and policies to support national objectives at times, there were also occasions when Mormon militia units defied state and federal military forces, sometimes to the point of open combat. No other American denomination has done this. This is a story about changing loyalties: as the LDS Church transformed from a personalist religious movement on the edge of society to a mainstay of American religious and political life, Mormons have moved from battling the US military to serving with distinction within it.
