Description: History of the Morrisite movement in Utah and Montana. The Morrisites were followers of Joseph Morris, who claimed revelations and broke from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In 1862 a siege by a territorial posse on the headquarters of the group in South Ogden led to the death of Morris. His followers settled in Washington and Montana.
