  • Imperial Zions: Mormons, Polygamy, and the Politics of Domesticity in the Nineteenth Century
    Imperial Zions: Mormons, Polygamy, and the Politics of Domesticity in the Nineteenth Century By Amanda Lee Hendrix-Komoto A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Susan M. Juster, Co-Chair Associate Professor Damon I. Salesa, Co-Chair Professor Terryl L. Givens Associate Professor Kali A.K. Israel Professor Mary C. Kelley ii To my grandmother Naomi, my mother Linda, my sisters Laura and Jessica, and my daughter Eleanor iii Acknowledgements This is a dissertation about family and the relationships that people form with each other in order to support themselves during difficult times. It seems right, then, to begin by acknowledging the kinship network that has made this dissertation possible. Susan Juster was an extraordinary advisor. She read multiple drafts of the dissertation, provided advice on how to balance motherhood and academia, and, through it all, demonstrated how to be an excellent role model to future scholars. I will always be grateful for her support and mentorship. Likewise, Damon Salesa has been a wonderful co-chair. His comments on a seminar paper led me to my dissertation topic. Because of him, I think more critically about race. In my first years of graduate school, Kali Israel guided me through the politics of being a working-class woman at an elite academic institution. Even though my work took me far afield from her scholarship, she constantly sent me small snippets of information. Through her grace and generosity, Mary Kelley served as a model of what it means to be a female scholar.

The writing and research in this file represents many hours of work, but I’m sharing it to help other genealogists just as many people have helped me.

Scotland, and died Aft. 1788. Notes for PATRICK REED: Patrick and his wife Margaret were married, probably in Scotland or Ireland, about 1759. Nothing is known about his ancestors, except that they were probably Scottish. After being forced to leave Scotland, they sought asylum in County Down, Northern Ireland. Patrick and Margaret went to Virginia well after the heavy migration of Scotch-Irish immigrants from Pennsylvania that began with Bordon's Grant in 1737 into Augusta County, which officially became a county in 1738. The area was originally part of Orange Co, VA, and Rockbridge Co was formed from Augusta Co. in 1778.
