363. Mormons believe that Adam and Eve used to live in Spring Hill Missouri

I'll provide links, because it sounds like I made it up, but it is true.

Mormons believe that Adam and Eve lived in the Garden of Eden. They have decided that the Garden of Eden was located in Spring Hill, Missouri. These lands are still sacred to the Mormon religion. They still maintain this belief of a Missourian Garden of Even today. This is not something that they thought long ago, but have since re-thought.

"Joseph Smith said in 1832 that the land where Adam and Eve lived after being cast out of the Garden was called Adam-ondi-Ahman (roughly translated to mean "Adam with God" or "Adam in the valley of God&quot . In 1838 the location of Adam-Ondi-Ahman was revealed as a place then called Spring Hill (or Wight's Ferry) in Missouri. After the Mormons were kicked out of Missouri it was renamed Cravensville.

Now, most of the site that Joseph said was Adam-ondi-Ahman is owned by the Church and is used as farmland and a visitor site. It is about 3000 acres and is located on the bluffs above the Grand River in Daviess County, Missouri. You can learn more about the site at the "Related Links" below."
