At least he didn’t have three wives at one time. How many wives did Joseph Smith have?

I seem to recall about 18-32 if you take all the diaries.

But he was a lightweight compared to Brigham Young - some 52 or 54.

That’s a lot of birthday cake each year. And candles.

Joseph Smith had at least 40 “wives” all at the same time

Brigham Young had 50+ wives and 80 children

the last polygamous Mormon “prophet” Heber Grant died in 1945 ..the prophet up to his death...

I think he outlived at least one of his wives
