Talk:John Milton Bernhisel

Current newspaper articles on John Bernhisel
Saw a very interesting newspaper article about Dr Bernhisel giving a copy of the Book of Mormon and a pamphlet to US President Millard Fillmore, and a lot more. Very, very interesting article. So I came onto Google so see if I could find the article text, and found this article from the day before. You may want to read both articles. Hope this helps, Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 14:09, 7 February 2012 (UTC) PS: Article dates are 10-10-2011 and October 9, 2011.

Addition to this line?
In the article on Mormonism and Polygamy, it notes that Bernhisel apparently married his own sister Maria at some point in his life. Thus, in keeping with that other article, I propose changing this line in the current article: "He was married to seven women, but by 1850 all of them but Elizabeth Barker had left for various reasons." Possible change being: "He was married to seven women, one of which was believed to be his sister Maria, but by 1850 all of them but Elizabeth Barker had left for various reasons."
