James Lucas
From HymnWiki
Life
- 1762–1800 (this is based on the evidence below)
One source says he lived from 1762 to 1800[1], and another source verifies that he was born at this date[2], while later Latter-day Saint sources say he was born in 1726[3][4]. 1805[5] and 1820[6][7] are also sited dates of importance to him, somehow.
