3 Nephi, in the Book of Mormon says that in America, in the 4th day of the 1st month in the 34th year of the new calendar, a great destruction lasting 3 hours, with storms, earthquakes and a city buried, was followed by 3 days of total darkness. There were no sun, moon or stars and they could not light a fire. The calendar, to which this refers, assumes that Jesus was born in the year 1 CE, rather than during the reign of Herod the Great - coincidentally the same error as made in 533 by the Roman abbott Dionysus Exiguus. Soon afterwards, Jesus appeared in the American colony, to the multitude of about 2500 men, women and children. They all touched his wounds and knew it was he.

Where in America did Jesus Christ visit while in the world?
Jesus Christ never visited America while he was living on Earth. According to the Christian Bible, Jesus lived out his entire life in Israel so physically he only visited parts of Israel mostly around the Galilee-area including Capernaum, Jerusalem, Bethlehem, and Bethany were he was born and died. However, according to the Mormons, Jesus visited North America after his Resurrection, but this is not accepted by mainstream Christianity.
What do Mormons believe about the Jews and israel?
Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that Israel is the ancestral home of the Jewish people. Mormons believe that the creation of the political state of Israel and the returning of Jews to that nation, as well as the political and religious unrest that takes place there, are in fulfillment of Biblical prophesy and a sign of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ drawing nearer.
Do mormons believe they are to inherit israel as the chosen ones?
No. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) believe that the Jews are to inherit Israel, as promised in the Bible. Mormons believe that Zion, the New Jerusalem, will be established in the United States. During the Millennial Reign of Jesus Christ, He will rule from both centers (Israel and Zion). As the Bible states, "The law shall go forth from Zion, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem." (Micah 4:2) Mormons believe that they will establish and inherit Zion as the chosen people of the last generation.
