Faith
1
On October 2, 1874, Latter-day Saints living in this locality organized a modern order of Enoch called the United Order under the counsel and instruction of Brigham Young. Families placed their land, cattle, sheep, machinery, and all other worldly possessions into the order for the benefit of the group. Archibald T. Oldroyd was chosen president. The community built a sawmill, tannery, gristmill, molasses mill, carding mill, furniture shop, and other industries. This cooperative project continued until 1881.
