Mormons By Cathy Pearl

¹     Caption: Brigham Young's cotton and woolen factories, Salt Lake City, Utah, taken in 1869.
 
²     Mormons belong to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. This large group of people would move onto land in the West. This land became part of the United States after the Mexican-American War.
 
³     Joseph Smith started the church in the 1830s. Smith was a farmer in New York. Many people joined him in his faith. He was an energetic man. He was also popular.
 
⁴     Many people did not like what he said. Mormons believed that everyone together, not one person, should own property. Smith also said that a man could have more than one wife. Neighbors became very angry with Smith and the Mormons. They forced them to leave New York.
