Why did the Mormons leave their first community?
The first real community of members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) was founded in Kirtland, Ohio beginning in 1831. The Church was formally organized in upstate New York, but shortly afterward a large number of converts from the Kirtland area prompted the small church to move there. Kirtland was at first welcoming but as more and more Mormons arrived, locals became disgruntled and many Mormons faced persecution as locals felt that Mormons were taking over. During this time, groups of Mormons were sent from Ohio to Missouri in order to establish "Zion", but persecution in Missouri was even worse, so the entire church (some from Ohio and some from Missouri) began the move to Illinois in search of religious freedom.
