Name/Title

Joseph and Lucy Smith's Tunbridge Farm

Description

When newlyweds Joseph Sr. and Lucy Mack Smith began raising a family in the mountains of Tunbridge Gore, Vermont, they left behind physical evidence of their lives together. The authors of this volume use archaeology and a landscape study to recover some of this information and e Smith family life in the late eighteenth-century "Smith settlement." These sources, when combined with newly discovered written records, shed light on Lucy Smith's early years within the Smith family and suggest a historical and physical setting for her "First Vision."
