Polygamy among the Utah Mormons
A statue of Brigham Young, second president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) and namesake of Brigham Young University, stands in the center of Salt Lake City. Brigham Young, aka "Mormon Moses", led his followers, the Mormon pioneers, in an exodus through a desert, to what they saw as a promised land. Young was a polygamist, marrying a total of 55 wives, and had 56 children. (Photo by Evan Hurd/Sygma/Sygma via Getty Images)
