JOSEPH KINGSBURY OF NORWICH. 433
The following sketch of his career is condensed from
Tullidge's History of Salt Lake City, published in 1886, by
authority of the City Council.
[About 1830, when Joseph Coroden Kingsbury was a
clerk in a store in Ashtabula, O., that neighborhood was
greatly stirred with the news of the " golden bible " found
by Joseph Smith. While Kingsbury was yet a lad he be-
came acquainted with Newel K. Whitney, who was after-
wards the presiding bishop of the Mormon Church, and in
183 1, when he removed to Kirtland, O., he came again under
the influence of Whitney. After the labors of the day were
over he would spend his evenings at the home of Elder
Whitney, from whose lips and the inspired memory of
" Mother Whitney " he heard related more fully the won-
derful narrative of Joseph the Prophet. The following
year young K. began his business relationship with the
presiding bishop of the church. He belonged to a certain
class of elders who were employed in the temporal govern-
ment of the Aaronic Priesthood. At the laying of the cor-
ner-stone of the Kirtland Temple he was ordained an elder
under the hands of the Prophet. Next he was ordained one
of the high council of the Kirtland Stake, which signifies
that he was one of the first high council in the church. He
removed to Missouri in 1838, and remained there through
all the wars and mobbings, until the Saints were expelled.
He then went to Nauvoo, where he was in the Tithing
Office under Bishop Whitney as his assistant. He was one
of the Pioneer Band which started for the Rocky Mountains
in 1847, and he is considered one of the founders of Salt
Lake City. He was counsellor to Bishop Lowry, and July
13, 1851, he was ordained to the office of a bishop, and as
bishop of the Second Ward he was one of the original bish-
ops of Salt Lake City. In i860 began his long connection
with the General Tithing Store of the church in Utah. In
1867 he was appointed general superintendent of the Tith-
ing Office under the direction of the late presiding bishop,
Edward Hunter. It was a position of great trust, requiring
much care, patience, and impartiality in dealing with the
people and the public lands, that they might be satisfied.

January 25, 1883, he was ordained a patriarch under the

1341 Gilbert Denison 7 Kingsbury {Denison\ John Den-

from the Ballston, N. Y., Law School, and admitted to the
bar in New York, but never practiced ; removed to Florida
in 1852 and taught school ; to Brownsville, Texas, in 1854,
where he kept a store and was Postmaster. He was a Union
man and left Texas of necessity for that reason, in 1862 ; re-
sided in Matamoras, Mexico, during the years 1863 and 1864;
removed to Illinois in 1866, and returned to Texas in 1874.
He was a teacher many years, lectured two years, and
farmed several years. He married (1), Anna Underwood,
in Florida ; she died in Brownsville, and all her four
children ; (2), September 22, 1865, Emeline Douglas, daugh-

1342 Rev. John Dennison 7 Kingsbury, D.D. {Joseph 6 ,
John Denison b , Denison*, Nathaniel, Joseph"*, Henry 1 ), of Brad-

1852; A.M., 1855 ; settled at Brandon, Vt, 1856; Winooski,
Vt, i860; at Bradford, Mass., 1866. He married, February
5, 1 861, Charlotte Martha Field, born May 28, 1835, daughter
of William Morton and Minerva Kimball (Davenport) Field,
of Brandon, Vt. He received the degree of D.D. from his
alma mater in 1876. He has written a number of books, in-
cluding a History of Bradford. In 1900 Dr. Kingsbury cel-
ebrated the anniversary of his settlement at Bradford, and
the following graceful tribute appeared in the Haverhill
Daily Bulletin :
" But few, if any, clergymen in New England have had a
more successful quarter of a century pastorate than Rev. J.
D. Kingsbury, D.D., of Bradford. In fact, only a compara-
tively few pastors in all New England can recount twenty-

JOSEPH KINGSBURY OF NORWICH 437
five years of labor in a single parish. Such cases are rare,
and when one can be found in these days of changes, it is
doubly worthy of mention. That of the Bradford pastor is
as beautiful as it is rare. Beautiful, because so satisfactory
to the people among whom he has labored to build up the
Redeemer's kingdom. Rev. Dr. Kingsbury is a pastor in
the broadest and deepest meaning of that term. In him are
combined all those qualifications necessary for the momen-
tous and sacred work devolving upon an ambassador of
Christ. Very often we hear it said by people, in speaking
of ministers, that such a one is an excellent speaker in the
pulpit, but a poor pastor ; or, a good pastor, but a poor ser-
monizer. But nothing of the kind can be applied to the
Bradford man of God, who has so successfully presided over
the Congregational Church in that town for a period of
twenty-five years. It has also been said of him that he never
preached a sermon without presenting thought worthy to be
written in letters of gold, and that at times his eloquence in
utterance reaches the highest point of finish. He is an im-
pressive speaker, and always holds the close attention of his
hearers from beginning to the end of his discourses. Dr.
Kingsbury is a pastor in a broad and delightful sense, away
from the pulpit, among his people. His genial and affable
manners assure him a cordial welcome in every home.
Especially is he welcomed at the bedside of the sick. As one
who knows him intimately has said : ' He is a wonderful
man in sickness ' ; and he is one of the few who know how
to enter a sick room, and when to leave it. But besides
being an excellent pastor Dr. Kingsbury is a good citizen.
He possesses executive ability of a high order, and knows
how things ought to be done. His judgment seems to be
unerring in all the questions that come before him ; when
convinced that a thing is right, he never hesitates to make
it known. He possesses a wonderful faculty of adaptation
and application. For twenty-five years no rumor of discon-
tent has been heard in his parish, and nobody desires a
change. Favored must be the pastor with such a society,
and happy must be the people with such a pastor."
January i, 1901, Dr. Kingsbury severed his connection
with the Church in Bradford, although he retains the posi-
