First, welcome to Wikipedia! Hope you find something that piques your interest here, & that you help improve on that topic.

Now to your question:

Curious if you recall what source you have for the section on Bethel, Missouri that notes: "However, the construction of the Hannibal & St. Joseph Railroad threatened his theocracy." Looking to update this page with additional town history.

It's been over 4 years since I wrote that, & at the time I did not keep any notes about my sources. IIRC, I took the gist of the material from a column in the Portland Oregonian about the Aurora colony, which made the point that William Keil preferred to govern his followers in a degree of isolation from other folks -- & this led him to move his congregation to Oregon. (I'd have to search through the paper's back issues at the Multnomah County Library to tell you when the article appeared.) As for the bit about him running a "theocracy", I used that term because he was an autocratic religious leader who had extensive control over his followers -- practically a cult. Stewart Holbrook wrote an article about Keil & his group, which is reprinted in Wildmen, Wobblies & Whistle Punks, ed. Brian Booth (ISBN 0-87071-383-3). -- llywrch (talk) 23:59, 11 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
