Kirtland, Ohio was the first place where Church headquarters were located, although the membership did not intend on that becoming 'Zion'. Zion (meaning the holy city) was to be located near Independence, Missouri. After the Mormons were kicked out of Missouri, they attempted to establish Zion in Nauvoo, Illinois. They had to flee Illinois and moved to Salt Lake City.
