Oh, yeah, that is an old thing for me. Yes, the teamwork aspect of it, and just the intellectual puzzle is a great reward. Like I said, I'm busy right now, but once things settle down again, I may be able to help.
Problems with auto-correct:
In Helaman 6:39, we see the Badmintons, so similar to Skousenite Mormons, taking over the government and abusing the rights of many.

This is fascinating. Great work! Just discovered this tonight but I will dig into it as time permits. For several years I've been convinced there is a connection between the Book of Mormon and Solomon Spalding's missing manuscript. The parallels you've uncovered with Hunt appear quite impressive. My initial question is: is there any connection between Hunt and Spalding? Any idea where/when Hunt went to college?
"...a pious lie, you know, has a great deal more influence with an ignorant people than a profane one."

- Sidney Rigdon, as quoted in the Quincy Whig, June 8, 1839, vol 2 #6.

I don't know of a connection.
