Oliver B. Huntington: Joseph Smith Taught that Eve had Children Before Cain

  

Our first mother, Eve, had children before Cain, and she bore them in obedience to the command of God, "To multiply and replenish the earth," not because of her desires to her husband. The children before Cain, were unbelievers in the Gospel and went into another part of the world to live because of their dislike to the Gospel, and after Cain could no longer be saved by the Gospel, he went away also and married one of his brother's daughters. (Oliver B. Huntington, History of the Life of Oliver B. Huntington Written by Himself, 1878-1900 [Self-published, 1900], 19)
