Brigham Young became a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) only three years after his conversion from Methodism, in 1835. Because of his position, he was well known among the Mormon community. Upon the death of Joseph Smith, it is said that Brigham Young gave a sermon in which he looked and sounded like Joseph Smith, leading most in attendance to believe that Brigham Young was to be the next leader of the Church. This was in Nauvoo, Illinois.
