Daniel Spencer (Mormon)

Daniel Spencer (July 20, 1794 – December 8, 1868)[1] was the last mayor of Nauvoo, Illinois prior to the revocation of its first charter.

Spencer was born in West Stockbridge, Massachusetts. In 1840, he joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. He soon after baptized his brother Orson Spencer.

Spencer served as a missionary to Canada in 1841.[1]

Spencer left Nauvoo in February 1846. In Winter Quarters, Nebraska he served as a bishop.[1] He arrived in the Salt Lake Valley in 1847 with the Perregrine Sessions Mormon pioneer company.

From 1852 to 1856 Spencer served as a missionary in the British Isles.

From 1849 to 1868 he served as president of the Salt Lake City Stake of the LDS Church.[2] He served in the Utah Territorial House of Representatives in 1851.[3]

gollark: It seemed to work when I was using it with filters set on the servos.
gollark: Does Thermal Dynamics do it okay?
gollark: What's that doing? Just deliquifying emeralds?
gollark: I also like Factorio, because despite being magic-blocky there are complex supply chains and stuff, loads of ways to optimize, and it's actually designed to allow mass production.
gollark: Ender IO: place one block, you have done all ore processing forever, maybe add grinding balls.TE: get pulverizer, you can also get induction smelters with interesting tradeoffs (faster but requires sand and no secondary output of other metal), maybe set up hybrid system involving feeding in cinnabar or whatever, get pyro-concentrators and tectonic initiators, supply petrotheum and pyrotheum...
