Claimed children fathered by Joseph ruled out by DNA evidence
Did Prescindia Buell not know who was the father of her son?
Summary: A notoriously inaccurate anti-Mormon work claimed that Buell confessed to not knowing her son's paternity. The account contains multiple of others, is implausible, requires proponents to overcome severe historical timeline and geographic problems, and has been refuted by DNA evidence. It is not convincing.
