+ | |Summary1=For over 150 years skeptics from E. D. Howe to Fawn Brodie to Gerald and Sandra Tanner and beyond have painted a picture of Joseph Smith as that of a man who at least sometimes trespassed the bounds of marital fidelity....Eleven accusations regarding claims that Joseph Smith possessed a reputation of either licentiousness or plural marriage prior to Nauvoo....All eleven are late accounts except for the secondhand and problematic claim of Levi Lewis regarding Martin Harris’ alleged comments concerning Eliza Winters. Regardless, based upon available evidence, allegations that Joseph Smith possessed a reputation as a womanizer or polygamist during the 1830s are not supported.}} | ||
