Emma’s Pearls

Angeline talks to Merrill about her experience on his podcast "Why I Believe"

We share our experience at the Joseph Smith Sr. and Lucy Mack Smith Reunion. Incredible moments and pictures.

Following our recent viewing of the feature film "Brother Joseph Again," we reflected on its findings. We believe that the photograph in question depicts our fourth great-grandfather, Joseph Smith. In this podcast, Curtis Webber presents compelling evidence demonstrating clear similarities between Joseph's death mask and a prominent portrait of Joseph Smith. We encourage you to watch the film and share your insights with us.

In 1992, Dan Larsen’s mother, Lois Smith Larsen, daughter of Frederick Madison Smith, RLDS Church President, and son of Joseph Smith III, bequeathed him some family heirlooms. One was a pocket watch with a Joseph Smith III monogram. The second was a similar but smaller locket. The locket was gold-plated, about 1 ½”, and had a jammed mechanism. He secured these in a safe for later perusal. In 2020, he came across the keepsake items and grew curious. This time he forced open the locket and discovered a picture, a daguerreotype. Larsen said, “I looked at it, and I looked at it and saw those eyes. I told my wife to come in and look at this. We looked at it and…almost at the same time said, ‘This is a photo of Joseph Smith.’”
