Well...it was sort of a joke response on how the Wasatch Front could some how be considered the most "interconnected" CSA...
But all the same, I have a branch of my family in Utah that's all Mormons(my grandma was adopted by Mormons as a child) and it's interesting how many of them and the people they know can all trace their lineage back to assorted Mormon pioneers. I mean they boast about it--and the ones that are related to Joseph Smith or Brigham Young--forget about it! There's plenty of converts, but there's an old school Mormon hierachy in that area--and Eastern Idaho as well.
