Jane is an incredibly interesting person. Emma Smith, Joseph's wife, at one point invited Jane to be sealed to her and Joseph as their adopted child. They considered her part of the family. Jane declined at the time but later said she only declined due to misunderstanding the offer 15/x

She would spend years petitioning church leaders in Utah to let her be sealed to the Smith's, only to be denied over and over again. Eventually they did allow her to be sealed to the Smith's not as a member of the family, but as a servant. 16/x
