By Daniel Peterson

When modern Latter-day Saints think of the witnesses to the Book of Mormon, it’s likely that the men whose names most commonly come to mind are Oliver Cowdery, Martin Harris, and David Whitmer — the “Three Witnesses.” And, because seven of the “Eight Witnesses” were surnamed either “Whitmer” or “Smith,” we tend to hear a little bit about them, as well.
