History

The first settlers, James and Janet Duncan with four other families, came in 1857 and lived in dugouts on the ridge one mile west. In 1859, a culinary water problem caused them to move east, where ten families began the settlement of Meadow, so named for its productive meadowland. In 1863, Wm. Henry Scott was appointed presiding elder of the branch. The ward was organized in 1877 with Hyrum B. Bennett as bishop. This church, built in 1884, also served for school and public gatherings, as did Meadow’s first log schoolhouse.
