baptized into this Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and in the spring of
1832 we moved to Jackson County, Missouri and from Jackson to Clay and from Clay
to far-West, Caldwell Co. Then I removed to Adams Co., Ill. In the spring of 1839,
and in april, 1841, I was ordained into the Quorum of Seventies where I remained
until January 14th (or 19th) 1845 when I was ordained one of the Presidents of the
