John Tanner Polygamy[edit]

The wikipedia article mentions that John Tanner was a polygamist. According to the marriage records, it looks like this is an inaccurate statement. See https://www.josephsmithpapers.org/person/john-tanner 2600:1700:47D0:8820:1933:D3FD:7977:C53D (talk) 19:11, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
