My mom's grandfather came to the US from denmark with the Mormons. They ended up staying in Iowa just across the Mississippi river in Clinton.
He is a petersen.
Pete my mom's dad was born around the turn of the century 1900s. Not sure if he was born in the US off hand.
They, mom's grandfather came through Ellis island and traveled with the Mormons before breaking off in iowa.
Pete was a Ditch digger for the phone company.

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, often referred to as the Mormon Church, was founded by Joseph Smith in western New York in 1830. The origins of the church are rooted in Smith's claims of divine revelations, including the First Vision, where he said he saw God the Father and Jesus Christ, and the visitation of the angel Moroni, who led him to golden plates that he translated into the Book of Mormon.
Key events in the early history of the Mormon Church:
* 1820s: Joseph Smith experiences religious unease and seeks guidance on which church to join. He reports his First Vision.
* 1830: Joseph Smith publishes the Book of Mormon and formally organizes the Church of Christ, later renamed the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
* 1830s-1840s: The church experiences rapid growth and missionary work expands. The church moves its headquarters several times due to persecution.
* 1844: Joseph Smith is killed by a mob in Carthage, Illinois, leading to a succession crisis. Brigham Young becomes the leader of the majority of Latter-day Saints.
* 1847: Brigham Young leads the pioneers westward to the Salt Lake Valley, establishing a new home for the church.
The origins of the Mormon Church are a complex and fascinating part of American religious history. The church's unique scriptures, doctrines, and practices have made it a subject of both interest and controversy.
Yea, fascinating history!

There's a new 6 part series on Netflix about a woman and child attempting to go west from PA to CA. When she travels through Utah she inadvertently gets the US Army, Bringun Young and followers and the Shoshone tribe all riled up. While extremely violent, I imagine the extents of the uglyness is toned down, but it's a worthy watch if you enjoy our expansion history..

The LDS Church will be protesting....
They still don't own up to the Mountain Meadows Massacre, so if there is truth in the story, there will be a Mormon protest.

Th jan 6 committee destroyed all the evidence.
Hillary destroyed all the evidence.
You don't illegally destroy evidence when you have the goods on someone.
What you watched was made for TV propaganda movie.

I haven't paid much attention to the whole ordeal.

I would imagine the whole event to have been easily contrived by the left to help try make the Donald look bad.


I guess you could say there's a day of reckoning coming...

Our government is evil. Both sides.
Time to dismantle it and restore it to like new condition.
Rebuild it for the people and the constitution. It's really what they are after.

So all the video footage captured by multiple media sources as well as the whitehouse security footage was faked? I guess it was faked by the same people who faked the moon landing.
