Guess I'll have to buy another. Loved your report. <BR/><BR/>My Grandfather Liljenquist had three wives, my grandmother being the third. I know she felt she made the right choice in marrying a man some thirty-odd years her senior, but life was never easy for her. (Maybe it wasn't easy for anybody back in those frontier days. Grandma walked almost all the way across the Great Plains when she was eight, and my dad was born in 1881.) I recall hearing how the other two wives argued over what to call her. One wife was Annie, the other Cristine, and Grandma's name is Annie Christine. Grandma lived pretty much alone with her sons after the manifesto, and my dad said he only knew his father as being kindly, but only an occasional visitor. He lived in Utah, Grandma homesteaded in Idaho, north of Rexburg. But oh, how I do appreciate both of them. I wish I had had the foresight to ask a bunch of questions before Grandma died. I could have, if I'd only thought to. Some day I'll be able to -- if it will make any difference then.Anna Arnetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09882034663742937010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723124266752750306.post-40303148380935038372008-07-14T09:21:00.000-07:002008-07-14T09:21:00.000-07:00Thanks, Stephanie.

I like the way you put they weren't converted to polygamy but to obeying God.Terri Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06905158157291602809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723124266752750306.post-20698902931969883382008-07-13T20:06:00.000-07:002008-07-13T20:06:00.000-07:00Great book reveiw, Marsha ~ I look forward to read...Great book reveiw, Marsha ~ I look forward to reading it.
