Emma HALE was born on 10 JUL 1804 in Harmony, Susquahanna County, Pennsylvania. She died in APR 1879 at Nauvoo, Hancock County, Illinois. HALE, Emma

Birth: July 1804, Harmony, Susquehanna, Pennsylvania
Daughter of Issac Hale and Elizabeth Lewis
Married: Joseph Smith, Jr., 18 January 1827, South Bainbridge, Chenango, New York
Lewis Crum Bidamon, 23 December 1847
Death: April 1879, Nauvoo, Hancock, Illinois
Burial: Nauvoo, Hancock, Illinois
Emma Hale became acquainted with Joseph Smith, Jr., in 1827 while he was employed at Harmony, Susquehanna, Pennsylvania. She was with Joseph throughout the translation of the Book of Mormon--she even acted as his scribe early in the translation, before Oliver Cowdery arrived.
Emma accepted and believed in the restored gospel, and was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on 29 June 1830 at Colesville, Broome, New York, by Oliver Cowdery. In a revelation given to Joseph Smith in July 1830 (D&C 25) she was called an "elect lady" and was commanded to expound the scriptures and to collect hymns for Church services. She shared with her husband his joys and sorrows, and passed through the persecutions at Harmony, Pennsylvania; Fayette, New York; Kirtland and Hiram, Ohio; Missouri; and Nauvoo, Hancock, Illinois.
When the first Female Relief Society was organized in Nauvoo on 17 March 1842, Emma was chosen president. She filled this position with distinction as long as the society remained in Nauvoo. She supervised the work of boarding and clothing the men who were building the temple in Nauvoo. During the 1840's persecutions, she traveled to Quincy, Adams, Illinois, to present a memorial to Governor Ford on behalf of the Saints. After her husband's martyrdom at Carthage, Emma remained in Nauvoo rather than join Brigham Young's westward exodus. Some sources credit this choice to Emma's personal dislike of Brigham Young.
On 23 December 1847 she was married to Major Lewis Crum Bidamon by Reverend William Henry (Haney), a Methodist clergyman. She and Lewis lived in the Mansion House for 22 years. In 1869 they took possession of a portion of the old Nauvoo House that had been abandoned when the Saints left Nauvoo. While residing in this remnant of Nauvoo's past greatness, Emma was visited by a constant stream of relatives and friends from Utah.
She became a member of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Nauvoo. She attended the Olive, Illinois Branch, which later reconsorted at Amboy, Lee, Illinois. Her son, Joseph Smith III, became the President of the Church.

Joseph Smith's Memoirs

Note 2:

Smith, Emma, the first Relief Society president in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, was born July 10, 1804, in Harmony, Susquehanna county, Pennsylvania. She was the daughter of Isaac Hale and became acquainted with Joseph Smith in 1827, while he was employed by Mr Josiah Stoal (of Chenango county, New York), in Harmony, Penn. Joseph writes: "During the time that I was thus employed, I was put to board with a Mr. Isaac Hale, of that place; it was there I first saw my wife (his daughter), Emma Hale. On the 18th of January, 1827, we were married, while I was yet employed in the service of Mr. Stoal. Owing to my continuing to assert that I had seen a vision, persecution still followed me, and my wife's father's family were very much opposed to our being married. I was, therefore, under the necessity of taking her elsewhere; so we went and were married at the house of Squire Tarbull, in South Bainbridge, Chenango county, New York. Immediately after my marriage, I left Mr. Stoal's and went to my father's, and farmed with them that season." Emma accepted the gospel as it had been revealed through her husband and was baptized by Oliver Cowdery in Colesville, Broome county, New York, in June, 1830. After this she shared with her husband his joys and sorrows, and, together with him, passed through the persecutions of New York, Ohio, Missouri and Illinois. In a revelation given through Joseph Smith in July, 1830, she was called "an elect lady" and commanded to expound Scriptures and to exhort the Church." (Doc. & Cov. 25: 7.) When the first Female Relief Society of the Church was organized in Nauvoo, Ill., March 17, 1842, she was chosen to stand at the head of the same as its president—a position which she filled with marked distinction as long as the society continued to hold meetings in that city. When the Saints were expelled from Illinois in 1846 Emma Smith chose to remain at her home in Nauvoo, where she was married to Lewis C. Bidamon Dec. 23, 1847, the Rev. William Haney, a Methodist clergyman performing the marriage ceremony. Mr. Bidamon, who was generally known as Major Bidamon, made the Mansion House (which had been built as a hotel by Joseph the Prophet) his family home, and there he lived with Emma as his wife for about twenty-two years. About 1869 they took possession of a portion of the old Nauvoo House, a brick structure which was partly built by the Saints before they left Nauvoo, and which for many years had stood as a ruin on the river bank, reminding the visitor of Nauvoo's past glory. Major Bidamon completed a part of the house and moved his family into it, and that historic building now became Emma's home during the remainder of her days. While residing as Mrs. Bidamon in the Mansion House and later, as stated, in the Nauvoo House, Emma was frequently visited by relatives and friends from Utah. To many of these she seemed restless and unhappy, but she always manifested great interest in the friends of her first husband. Her dislike for Pres. Brigham Young is believed by many to have been the main cause of her refusal to gather with the Saints to the mountains; and it is also asserted that she on the same ground, later on, influenced her sons to take the stand they did in regard to the so-called Re-organization. Sister Emma died in Nauvoo, April 30, 1879, and at the time of her demise the "Deseret News" said editorially: "To the old members of the Church the deceased was well known, as a lady of more than ordinary intelligence and force of character. Her opposition to the doctrine of plural marriage, which, however, she at first embraced, led to her departure from the faith of the gospel as revealed through her martyred husband. She chose to remain at Nauvoo when the Saints left for the west, and in consequence lost the honor and glory that might have crowned her brow as "the elect lady." She was the mother of four (seven) children, all the sons of the Prophet Joseph, viz: Joseph, now leader of the sect which commonly bears his name, Frederick (deceased), Alexander and David. It was mainly through her influence that they were led into the bypath wherein they have gone astray. She has now gone beyond the veil to await the great day of accounts. There is no feeling of bitterness in the hearts of the Saints toward Sister Emma Smith, but only of pity and sorrow for the course she pursued. May her remains rest in peace."
