Marriage and Family
On May 25, 1892, Smith married Lucy Emily Woodruff, the grand-daughter of Wilford Woodruff, in the Manti Temple. The couple later had three children. Lucy had spent much of her time growing up in the household of her grandfather Wilford Woodruff, and looked on him as almost more of a father than a grandfather. Smith's son George Albert Smith, Jr. became a professor at Harvard Business School.
