|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.}}

Marinda Nancy Johnson Hyde


The circumstances of Marinda Nancy Johnson Hyde plural marriage to Joseph Smith, Jr.

Summary: Nancy married future apostle Orson Hyde on 4 September 1834. He was involved briefly with apostasy at Far West in the fall of 1838, but had returned to the Church by March 1839 following a dramatic vision in which he saw the consequence of continued rebellion. Marinda was sealed to Joseph in April 1842, while Orson was on a mission. Only antagonistic accounts of this sealing exist. Of the four reports, two claim that Orson was aware of the sealing, and two claim that he was not.

Marinda Nancy Johnson Hyde as a polyandrous wife of Joseph Smith

Very unlikely to have had child(ren) fathered by Joseph

Summary: One child's death certificate rules Joseph out as the father; the other has chronology problems which suggest that Joseph is not the father.

Did Mrs. Hyde not know whether Orson or Joseph fathered her child?
