Elizabeth Raymond, Ph.D. / Thesis Advisor December 2019 Copyright by Shannon Caldwell Montez 2019 All Rights Reserved UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA RENO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by SHANNON CALDWELL MONTEZ entitled The Secret Mormon Meetings of 1922 be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS C. Elizabeth Raymond, Ph.D., Advisor Cameron B. Strang, Ph.D., Committee Member Greta E. de Jong, Ph.D., Committee Member Erin E. Stiles, Ph.D., Graduate School Representative David W. Zeh, Ph.D., Dean, Graduate School December 2019 i Abstract B. H. Roberts presented information to the leadership of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in January of 1922 that fundamentally challenged the entire premise of their religious beliefs. New research shows that in addition to church leadership, this information was also presented during the neXt few months to a select group of highly educated Mormon men and women outside of church hierarchy. This group represented many aspects of Mormon belief, different areas of eXpertise, and varying approaches to dealing with challenging information. Their stories create a beautiful tapestry of Mormon life in the transition years from polygamy, frontier life, and resistance to statehood, assimilation, and respectability. A study of the people involved illuminates an important, overlooked, underappreciated, and eXciting period of Mormon history.

When the beleaguered pioneers first arrived in Utah they were isolated from the influence and expectations of the United States. During that time, leaders of the Church became influential in every aspect of life in Utah.

  • Looking Beyond the Borders of Mexico: Historian Andrew Jenson and the Opening of Mormon Missionary Work in Latin America
    Bray and Neilson: Looking Beyond the Borders of Mexico 1 Looking Beyond the Borders of Mexico: Historian Andrew Jenson and the Opening of Mormon Missionary Work in Latin America Justin R. Bray and Reid L. Neilson On July 11, 1923, Assistant Church Historian Andrew Jenson met at the office of the First Presidency in Salt Lake City, Utah, to report on his four- month, twenty-three-thousand-mile expedition throughout Central and South America from January to May of that year. Jenson, the foremost representa- tive of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to visit the countries south of the Mexican border since Elder Parley P. Pratt in 1851, had eager- ly waited for two months to give to Presidents Heber J. Grant, Charles W. Penrose, and Anthony W. Ivins his glowing assessment of Latin America as a potential missionary field.1 The journey through Latin America significantly differed from Jenson’s earlier overseas expeditions.

  • The Beginnings of the First LDS Institute of Religion at Moscow, Idaho
    Wright: The First LDS Institute of Religion at Moscow, Idaho 65 The Beginnings of the First LDS Institute of Religion at Moscow, Idaho Dennis A. Wright Moscow, Idaho, home to the University of Idaho, is a land-grant univer- sity established in 1889. It was here, in 1928, that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints established its first institute of religion. The events pre- ceding the establishment of the first institute, stand as a witness to the faithful contributions of the early Church members in this area who pioneered the institute program. This article highlights key persons and events related to the beginnings of the Moscow Institute.1 Norma and Zola Geddes entered the University of Idaho as freshmen in the fall of 1925. Born in Baker, Oregon, the girls had lived with their family in Portland, Oregon, and Ogden, Utah, before moving to Winchester, Idaho, a lumbering community in northern Idaho in 1923. Their father, William C. Geddes, was a successful business executive who owned and managed lumber companies in Utah, Oregon, and Idaho.2 Faithful to the LDS Church, the fam- ily practiced their religion wherever William’s business interests took them. However, the isolation of their home in Winchester did not provide the fam- ily with the Church association and fellowship they had enjoyed in previous communities in Oregon and Utah. During their formative years in Winchester, Norma and Zola looked forward to attending college in Oregon where there was a larger LDS membership. However, their father, having different ideas, told them, “Either go to the University of Idaho or sit in Winchester and twid- dle your thumbs.”3 After a few tears, the girls packed their bags for Moscow.
