The family of Parley P. Pratt has been trying to find his remains and move them to Salt Lake, per his dying wish. But it appears that there was no luck in finding him.

Well obviously Joseph needs someone to go on splits with. He and Hyrum can't be expected to be available together all of the time can they?

The story of PPP is one of the best lies (more correctly it's a non-truth not a lie) the church tells. The way it's related in most circles, you assume PPP was down south preaching the gospel minding his own business when a group of rednecks kill him because they hated the church. When actually it's more like a jealous lover extracting revenge on PPP who married (stole?) the dude's wife to become one of his polygamous wives.

I'd say that makes me more Mormon than most on this board.
