Season 4 Episode 06 The Early Years of the Joseph Smith Sr. Family

Description

Joseph Smith Sr. and Lucy Mack were married January 24, 1796 at Tunbridge Vermont. They began their life together with a $1000 wedding present and part ownership of a “handsome” farm, but within a few years they had lost that farm. Those early New England years were difficult enough that by 1816 Father Smith would seek his fortunes in a new land. This is the story of the early years of the Smith family and those circumstances that took them to Palmyra, New York.
