Young, Brigham 1801 -- 1877
Religious leader, colonizer of Utah; born in Whitingham, Vt. He was an und irected farmer and house painter in upstate New York until he was baptiz ed into the Mormon church in 1832. He led converts to Kirtland, Ohio, a nd was recognized as a successful missionary when Joseph Smith chose h im as one of the Twelve Apostles in 1835. He directed the Mormons' mo ve to Nauvoo, Ill., and led a successful mission to England (1839--41). Af ter the death of Joseph Smith (1844), he became the leader of the Mormo ns and directed the move to the valley of the Great Salt Lake (1846--48 ). A tireless and efficient administrator, he instituted irrigation system s, agricultural programs, and construction projects, all the while encoura ging a steady flow of immigrants to the colony the Mormons called Desere t. Appointed by the U.S. Congress as the first territorial governor of Ut ah (1850), he refused to step down when the Federal government replaced h im in 1857, leading to the "Mormon War" (1857--58); he remained the Mormon s' effective leader until his death. More the founder of the economic a nd social structures of the Mormons than a spiritual leader, he was a virt ual despot in his administration, but a congenial in his private lif e; he had numerous wives and 56 children.
