Who is Brigham Young?

Once again, I’m experimenting with putting the game recap thread up earlier, in case there are some of you who watch Jeopardy in an earlier market and want a spot to post discussion. I will have a placeholder comment, which I will edit later with final results and statistics as I am able to obtain and/or compile them. Thanks for visiting!

  • Although Brigham Young died as recently as 1877, he left more than 1,000 direct descendants. He had twenty-six wives, fifty-six children, of whom forty-seven survived him. In addition, there are 204 grandchildren and 745 great-grandchildren in the family circle. There is not in Salt Lake City an available building large enough to hold the family when it gets together for the great reunion, so it has been arranged to hold the affair in the open air.
