 | | Joseph Fielding Smith (1876-1972), the tenth President of the Church, was born July 19, 1876, in Salt Lake City, the firstborn son of Joseph F. Smith, an apostle who would become the sixth President of the Church, and Julina Lambson, the first of his six plural wives. |
 | | Under the tutelage of his parents, Joseph Fielding, as he became known in the Church, grew up with a deep affection for the Prophet Joseph Smith and his teachings. |
 | | When Joseph Fielding Smith was ordained an apostle on April 7, 1910, the Salt Lake Tribune published criticisms against him, his father, and the Smith family for nepotism. |
