Barber Shop Corner |
Another shot of the intersection of Main and Water Streets, this time looking westward, with the
Nauvoo House and the river in the background and the
Mansion House
hitching rail and picket fence at the left. The RLDS tour sign stands on the corner where they (the RLDS) say Uncle Orrin Porter Rockwell
set up a barber shop in 1844, after his really nasty imprisonment experience in Missouri. Talk about location, location, location…
This would have been after Emma wasn’t willing that Porter earn his living as the Mansion House bartender. |
