Description

This is a story of one family's historic odyssey through American religion, spanning the generations between the years 1780 to 2010. It is built around the Webb family of Southern Illinois, an extended family formed early by marriages with the Kelleys, Smiths, and the Yanceys. This is the story, first, of how this extended family became Mormons in Southern Illinois within only months after Joseph Smith founded the Mormon faith; second, it is the story of how this family became instrumental in changing a part of the Mormon faith into what was called the Reorganized Church of Latter Day Saints, the group that rejected Brigham Young's polygamy. Then, in 2000, the RLDS transformed itself into the new Protestant denomination called the Community of Christ. The book is unique in that all of this American religious history is told through the rich characters of the combined family of Webbs and Kelleys. Since the author is a journalist and this story involved research into his own family, the book is written in the form of a journalistic memoir. This includes how the author's immediate family after World War II left the family's religion in Southern Illinois, as well as the author's decision to return to the Community of Christ, the present day faith of his ancestors.
