Morrisite War
The Morrisite War was a skirmish between a Latter Day Saint sect known as the "Morrisites" and the Utah territorial government.
==Morrisites==
In 1857 Joseph Morris, an English convert to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Utah, reported receiving revelations naming him the Seventh Angel from the Book of Revelation. He wrote to Brigham Young, seeking recognition of his calling from the church.〔(''C. LeRoy Anderson Morrisite Collection'' ). Marie Eccles-Caine Archive of Intermountain Americana. Utah State University Libraries: Special Collections and Archives. Accessed 9 May 2007.〕
In 1860 Morris began to collect followers to a group that was commonly known as the Morrisites. In February 1861 John Taylor and Wilford Woodruff excommunicated him. On April 6, 1861 he organized the Church of the Firstborn and called all of his followers to gather at Kingston (Kington) Fort, a fort on the Weber River which had been abandoned in 1858.〔Malan, Ruth. "Three-day war focus of new monument". ''Standard-Examiner'' (Ogden, UT) November 2, 2006. Pluses Section.〕 By Fall 1861, the group contained several hundred followers.
Morris told his followers that the Second Coming was imminent and not to bother with planting crops. They may have trampled some of their crops into the ground as evidence of their faith.〔 The group pooled available supplies and waited at Kingston Fort.
