Best Answer

A:

No. William Law, who was excommunicated by the Mormons in 1844 for opposing polygamy, and Sidney Rigdon published the Vauvoo Expositor in 1844 and set up a separate church. The new group was opposed by Smith and other Mormons, and its press destroyed by a mob. Smith and other were imprisoned for causing the riot.

The prison was mobbed by a 'rabble of freemasons', resulting in Smith's death on 27th June 1844. Joseph Smith was a strong exponent of polygamy, but the real issue that led to his death was the Mormon attack on the free press, and perhaps just that Mormons were different.

Did Joseph Smith had sexualrelation to all or most of his wives?

No. While records show that Joseph Smith was 'sealed' to multiple women in religious ceremonies, he lived with only Emma, his first wife. There is no record of him having a sexual relationship with anyone other than Emma, and he didn't have children with anyone but Emma. The majority of the other women he was sealed to legally married other men and lived with them in a typical marriage relationship. Some even denied that Joseph was a polygamist!

What do you call the divorced woman?

Traditionally in England a woman called Mary, married to a man called John Smith, would be known as "Mrs John Smith" when married, and as "Mrs Mary Smith" when divorced. Many women nowadays prefer to be known as "Mrs Mary Smith" even when married. Divorced women may also be known as "Ms Mary Smith" ('Ms' is pronounced 'Muz'). "Ms" is also used by single women who do not like "Miss". The previous answerer, who is obviously doesn't like traditional forms, wrote "Anything but Mrs." Of course it is always courteous to address a woman by the way she has said she prefers; some divorced women revert to their maiden name.


Why don't you have a middle name?

Some people (usually women) don't have a middle name so that they can keep their Maiden name as their middle name when they get married. So if you were Mary Smith and you married a Collins, you could have the name Mary Smith Collins.
