    Notes:

    Asael was the paternal grandfather of the Prophet, Joseph Smith. He w a s a man of strongest religious convictions, and yet a man whose broad h um anitarian views were repugnant to many of the sectarians of the day. U po n one occasion, before the Prophet's birth, Asael Smith had a premonit io n that one of his descendants should be a great teacher and leader o f men . To quote his words, as they are remembered and recorded by one wh o kne w and heard him speak: "It has been borne in upon my soul that on e of m y descendants will promulgate a work to revolutionize the world o f religi ous faith."
    source: "The Life of Joseph Smith the Prophet" by George Q. Cannon, pa g e 16.

    "Asael fought for our liberty in the Revolutionary War. In the summe r o f 1776, he joined a regiment to defend New York's northern frontier . In h is prime of life, Asael Smith gave this counsel to his family, "Bl ess Go d that you live in a land of liberty....See God's providence in th e appoi ntment of the Federal Constitution and hold both Union and Orde r as a pre cious jewel."

    Asael left a great legacy to his family and the (LDS) Church. He consist e ntly set an example of honesty and integrity in the face of adversity . Hi s writings reveal a deep faith in Jesus Christ and His resurrection . An u nwavering concern for his fellowmen is evidenced in his strong ant i-slave ry beliefs. In the last message to his family, he exhorted them t o "Searc h the scriptures." These are qualities that would serve us wel l to emulat e."

Mary (daughter of Moses Duty and Mary Palmer) was born on 11 Oct 1743 in Rowley, Essex, Massachusetts, United States; was christened on 16 Oct 1743 in Haverhill, Essex, Massachusetts, United States; died on 27 May 1836 in Kirtland, Lake, Ohio, United States; was buried on 28 May 1836 in Kirtland, Lake, Ohio, United States.
