This is the Whitmer farm.
Joseph Smith and Emma came to live here
and Joseph finished translating the Book of Mormon here.
This is the home where the church was organized.
They left Palmyra because of persecution and settled in Kirtland.
Many people were baptized here
including the Whitney's.
The Smith family lived in the upper floors of the store for a time.
These floor are original....
