Edward was soon convinced of the truthfulness of the Book of Mormon and made a trip to New York to see the Prophet Joseph Smith, who baptized him on the 11 December 1830 in the Seneca River.
Accordingly Edward put his property in the hands of a man he thought to be a friend, with instructions to sell it; but the man was not faithful to the trust and Edward and his family received very little from the property.
Edward Partridge was ordained an Elder in December 1830 by Sidney Rigdon and was set apart as Bishop 4 February 1831 by Sidney Rigdon and ordained a High Priest 6 June 1831 by Lyman Wight.
