  • In 1846, the disciples of Joseph Smith crossed the Mississippi on a 1,300 mile journey into the unknown in search of the valley of the Great Salt Lake. Every early Saint, crossing the plains to Zion was not merely a journey, but a rite, the final devoted and enduring act that brought one into the Kingdom.

    Hello from Omaha. They were so industrious that they planted crops and built a mill at Winter Quarters, in what is now north Omaha. The Florence Mill building is still standing. Excellent presentation. Thanks.

    Not only a fair telling of the LDS migration west, but at times moving and beautiful. Well done.

  • @Babinskusreflex

    Excellent job. I think my ancestors that were part of that migration would approve.

    In the late 1950's, I went to Florence Grade School. A block away to the south was a park that had been the Winter Quarters. We used to find buckles and buttons under the swings and teeter totters.

    Shout out to my ancestors

    Such beautiful video production! If you did the whole history of the church it would sound amazing like this. Story of Joseph Smith is the most interesting story in American history, up there with George Washington, yet Americans do not claim Joseph Smith at all, it's a tragedy!

    Why does the walrus have so many views on each video but a low sub count?! That BS.... His research is subscription worthy....I am LDS and I know that my churches history is not perfect. I do believe that J.Smith was a soldier for God and Jesus in the spiritual war that has always ALWAYS been an issue within the American elite. Think about it, the native Americans that were here were spiritual and had a true connection with mother earth which can be interpreted as God or a "higher power" and the connection that they had can be interpreted as faith. The feds came after them. Then the Amish had some issues with the feds. I don't believe that polygamy is a righteous act/belief but the feds came after the "fundies" (fundamental LDS). Then the feds hunted the Mormons in this video making a hero out of Smith, Young and the like...look at the Waco situation...you cant tell me there isn't a war on spirituality, faith, Christianity, JUDAISM anyone with faith in a higher power. Thank you for your work you have inspired me to start my own history RUclips channel.

  • @chiron14pl

    Nauvoo is pronounced "nah-voo'" and Heber Kimball is pronounced "hee'-bur"

  • @hagamapama

    Good scholarship, but you should talk to a LDS scholar to get a notion of how to pronounce names.

    The Mormon bible has underwent over 860 major changes in it's history, as one example the Mormon church didn't allow Black people to join their church all the way up until 1978. Taken as a whole that is some very damming evidence that the Mormon bible was written by a man with a lust for all the women he could hump and live like royalty. There is only one God, he has only one Son and only one bible. The next-to-last paragraph of the 66 Book canon of the Kings James Version gives a severe warning to any who "Add To or Take Away" from this book that was written by men who were inspired by God's Holy Spirit. It is unique in every way and it makes clear that man is flawed and will never be able to govern himself, we must acknowledge our creator and follow his son Jesus.
