(^10) At the time of Joseph Smith’s death, his family included the following people: Emma Smith
(wife) and children (Julia Murdock Smith, Joseph Smith III, Frederick Granger Williams Smith,
Alexander Hale Smith, and David Hyrum Smith), Lucy Mack Smith (mother) and siblings Samuel
Smith (dying just over a month later), Sophronia Smith McCleary, William Smith, Catherine Smith
Salisbury, and Lucy Smith Millikin. None of these family members followed Brigham Young west
when he led most Latter-day Saints to what is now Salt Lake City, Utah.
