Mormonism originated in New York. After a decade of preparation, which mostly took place in New York, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) was officially founded on April 6, 1830 in Fayette, New York.

Who forced the Mormons out of New York?

Church headquarters and members voluntarily left New York in 1831 to move to Ohio. This was because there was a large increase in converts from Ohio and it made more sense to move there then have all the converts travel to New York for meetings. This is the only place they left voluntarily, they were later forced out of Ohio, Missouri, and Illinois.

Why did the mormons leave New York who was the founder pf their religion and what happended to him?

The Mormons left New York only a year after the church was founded there. This was due to two reasons. First, they weren't being treated very well. Second, a large group had converted near Kirtland Ohio. There were so many converts that more Mormons lived in Kirtland than in New York. Church leadership decided it would be best to move there and encouraged members to come along so that everyone could be together. Some small congregations continued in New York for several years. Mormons (members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) believe that Jesus Christ founded their church through a modern prophet, Joseph Smith. He and his brother were shot and killed in Carthage, Illinois in June 1844. Check out the "Related Links" to learn more about Mormons, Joseph Smith, and the founding of the church.
