14 Women of Faith in the Latter Days, 1775–1820 of her character was refined in the fire of adversity. The loss of loved ones and comfortable homes seemed to be her constant fate. Yet she rejoiced in the love of a good husband, to whom she had been sealed in the Nauvoo Temple 40 and that of three children who still stood beside her in her old age, not to mention numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and friends. They knew her as a positive force, a woman of unbending faith. Throughout her long life, she never hesitated to bear her testimony in both word and deed. In an 1845 letter to her husband’s sister Esther, Diantha added her testimony to that of her husband, Titus: It is the truth of Heaven—and you will sooner or later have to acknowledge it—and you cannot say in the coming day we have not warned you of these things. We have got to leave our homes to a distant home we know not where. We have just got pleasantly situated. We have a farm, house and a good well of water & other conveniences so as to make life pleasant. But it is no more than the S[ain]ts had to suffer anciently, and I hope we shall bear it patiently. I must draw to a close, hoping you may never reject truth wherever it is made plain to you. From your friend and Sister Diantha Billings. 41 40.

Birch Biographical Sketch Catherine Clark was born June 2, 1813, to Archibald and Mary Clark Clark1 in Inchinnan, Renfrewshire, Scotland. Her future husband, Robert Smith, had been born in the same place the year before. They were married in Middle Chapel of the Paisley parish in 1838.

Two more sons were born to Catherine in Pennsylvania: Daniel Clark in 1843 and Hyrum Joseph in 1845. The year of Daniel’s birth, Robert and Catherine were introduced to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
