John Gaylord

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John Gaylord was an early Mormon leader and member of the Presidency of the Seventy of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

Gaylord was installed as one of the Seven Presidents of Seventies on April 6, 1837, by Sidney Rigdon and Hyrum Smith. He replaced Sylvester Smith. On January 13, 1838, he was excommunicated along with several others. Gaylord was embittered over the failure of the Kirtland Safety Society. Henry Harriman took his place in the Presidency.[1]

Gaylord rejoined the church in 1839 and moved to Nauvoo, Illinois, where he later received his endowment in the Nauvoo Temple.[1]
