Joseph Smith's Sons

Joseph Smith and Emma Hale married in 1827, lost 6 children, before the age of 2. Four biological sons survived to adulthood, plus an adoptive daughter, Julia Murdock Smith, here is her story for those who aren't familiar (often mention her photo album, as many images used here are from there, she was raised from birth by Joseph and Emma Smith): http://mormonhistoricsites.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/MHS3.2Fall2002JuliaMurdockSmith.pdf

Nearly all of the sons bear a great resemblance, in their face shapes, eyebrows, eye shape, and especially Joseph, David and Fredrick's  ears! :)

Joseph Smith's Parents, Brothers and Sisters

We do not have any pictures of Joseph Smith Senior, father of Joseph Smith, but when I saw a painting of him I could NOT stop staring at it and seeing how incredible of a resemblance he was to my CDV, the ears, the eye-shape, the lips, very incredible. Photos exist of the remaining three siblings of Joseph Smith, but the two sisters Catherine and Lucy bear a striking resemblance to "1840s Illinois Man".
