Notes
 Note |
Records indicate Mary may have married Joseph AFTER his death. LDS sealings allow for "Posthumous Proxy Marriages" Sealings to Smith after his death http://www.signaturebooks.com/excerpts/insacred.htm#chart It is true that most of his wives recommemorated their marriages to him by proxy after his passing. But not all of the women sealed to him after his death had a previous marital relationship with him. For instance, Cordelia Morley stated in a memoir that she had never married Smith while he was living. Other early posthumous-only marriages to Smith include Augusta Adams Cobb Young (1848) and Amanda Barnes Smith (1852). Mary Ann Frost Stearns Pratt seems to have married Parley P. Pratt for eternity during Smith's lifetime, so her later sealing to Smith is also probably posthumous-only. |
