Notes about Joel Juel Josiah Bess

Son of James Bess and Margaret Richey

Married Laura Richardson, abt 1830

Children - Oliver Cromwell Bess, James Lawrence Bess, Laura Melvina Bess, Lola Eliza Bess, William Henry Bess, Lucinda Bess, Lurinda Bess

History - He might have died in Greenwood, Steuben, New York before Laura joined the Saints. All accounts say he died 7 March but the year seems to vary with the earliest being 1842, the year her last children were born.

Here is an account from the journal of Warren Foote, her cousin:

Warren Foote Journal - Volume 1 Page 101, July 29th 1846:

"I came across Laura Bess, a cousin and daughter of Aunt Lowly Richardson. I had not seen her for about nine years. When we left Greenwood she did not belong to the church. When we lived in Illinois her Mother used to get me to answer the letters that she got from Laura. She was opposed to some of the doctrines taught by the saints, and I recollect on one occasion in the year of 1839 of answering one of her letters in which she had quite an array of arguments to refute Mormonism. Aunt sent for me to come to her house and write an answer. I took up her arguments one after another and quoted scripture to prove that the doctrines of the Latter Day Saints are the doctrines of the bible, and therefore the only true gospel, by which means I upset all her arguments, and left her without any foundation to stand on. This was about three years before I was baptized. She says that that letter of mine entirely convinced her of the truth of "Mormonism." Her husband died after joining the church in Greenwood N.Y. She is going with the church."
