Elias Higbee
Elias Higbee (October 23, 1795 – June 8, 1843) was an associate of Joseph Smith, a leader of the Danites, and an official historian and recorder in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
==Biography==
Born in Galloway Township, New Jersey to Isaac Higbee and Sophia Somers, Higbee joined the Latter Day Saint church in 1832 in Ohio.〔(Biography ) of Elias Higbee, The Joseph Smith Papers (accessed January 9, 2012)〕 He and his family joined the gathering of Latter Day Saints in Kirtland, Ohio later that year. In 1833 the Higbees and other Latter Day Saints attempted to settle in Jackson County, Missouri, but were forced to return to Kirtland in 1835. They again tried to settle in Missouri in 1836, this time in Clay County. While in Missouri, Higbee was a county judge and a leading officer of the church's Missouri militia. Eventually, the events of the 1838 Mormon War again forced the Higbees to leave Missouri and by 1839 they had settled with the majority of Latter Day Saints in Commerce, Illinois, which would later be renamed Nauvoo.
In 1838, Higbee became the official historian of the church, and in 1840 he became the church's recorder. In 1839 and 1840, Higbee traveled with Joseph Smith to Washington, D.C. to submit a petition for redress to U.S. President Martin Van Buren.〔Gary James Bergera, ("Buckeye's Laments: Two Early Insider Exposés of Mormon Polygamy and their Authorship" ), ''Journal of the Illinois State Historical Society'', Winter 2003.〕 On October 8, 1840, Higbee was appointed by Smith to the committee charged with organizing the construction of the Nauvoo Temple.〔Joseph Smith (B.H. Roberts ed.) 1902. ''History of the Church'' (5:421 ).〕
Higbee unexpectedly died of cholera in 1843 in Nauvoo.〔 After his death, Smith stated that Higbee "will again come forth and strike hands with the faithful, and share the glory of the kingdom of God for ever and ever."〔 He was married to Sarah Elizabeth Ward and was the father of twelve children.
