“Inasmuch as this church of Christ has been reproached with the CRIME of fornication, and polygamy: we declare that we believe, that one man should have one wife; and one woman, but one husband, except in case of death, when either is at liberty to marry again.”

If a Mormon believes one is still married in the afterlife, but his/her original spouse in this world has passed away and there has been a remarriage, which spouses make up the marriage in the next life? I am especially curious in the case of a remarried woman. This is not a baiting question I reeally am curious.

Good question. Simplest answer is that a man may be married for eternity with more than one woman - current 'interpretation of D&C 132. Get past that and the whole scheme gets very twisted.
