Do you know it took me two seasons to figure out Selma Green's sex/gender? (I swear they called her Selwyn in the first season she showed up.) And I'm still not sure I know.
I really want to know more about this Mexican Mormon colony.
I don't know a lot about it, but I first learned of it when reading Shattered Dreams by Irene Spencer. She was in the FLDS and was one of ten wives. Apparently a fair number of polygamists went to Mexico and set up camp. I'm not surprised that George Romney's family was initially on welfare, as the poverty Spencer describes in her book is really quite alarming.
This is the book I was talking about. I found it fascinating.
