Vinson Knight
Vinson Knight (March 14, 1804 – July 31, 1842) was an early leader in the Latter Day Saint movement. He served as a counselor in the bishopric in Kirtland, Ohio from 1835 to 1838, then as bishop in Adam-ondi-Ahman in Daviess County, Missouri, from 1838 to 1839, and finally as bishop of the Lower Ward in Nauvoo, Illinois, having been called by Joseph Smith through revelation to that office in January 1841. Knight served as bishop in Nauvoo until his sudden death at age 38.
==Early years==
Knight was born March 14, 1804, in Norwich, Hampshire County, Massachusetts, to Doctor Rodolphus Knight〔(Belnap Family Organization: Histories and Documents: Rodolphus Knight (1768–1809) )〕 and Rizpah Lee〔(Belnap Family Organization: Histories and Documents: Rizpah Lee (1774–1853) )〕 (daughter of American Revolutionary War Captain Sherebiah Lee). Following his father's death when he was just five years old, his mother moved the family to upstate New York. Here Knight married Martha McBride, daughter of itinerant pre-Campbellite minister Daniel McBride〔(Belnap Family Organization: Histories and Documents: Daniel McBride (1766–1823) )〕 and Abigail Mead,〔(Belnap Family Organization: Histories and Documents: Abigail Mead (1770–1854) )〕 on July 26, 1826. They initially resided near Martha's relatives in Perrysburg, New York, where their first four children (Almira Knight, born 1827; Rizpah Knight, born 1829; Adaline Knight, born 1831; James Vinson Knight, born 1833) were born. Here Knight acquired considerable wealth from his farm produce.
Starting in 1833, members of the McBride family began converting to the Latter Day Saint church. Vinson and Martha were baptized into the church soon thereafter, on March 24, 1834, after having been taught in their home by church founder Joseph Smith.
