After the murder of the prophet, Joseph Smith, some felt that the presidency of the church should go from father to son and that Joseph Smith's son should lead the church. The senior apostle, Brigham Young, led the LDS church away from the persecution, but the reorganized church stayed in the Eastern states. Eventually the reorganized church ran out of the bloodline who wanted to lead the church.
