3. Shoshone Homestead Applications at Lemuel’s Garden, 1876–1885
Northwestern Shoshone Latter-day Saints obtained homesteads near present-day Tremonton, Utah, with the aid of Euro-American missionaries beginning in 1876. These missionaries called the new farming community Lemuel's Garden, a reference to a figure in the Book of Mormon. The Northwestern Shoshone moved the nucleus of their community to Washakie in 1880, but some maintained their land claims. (See Chronology and “The Northwestern Shoshone Mission.”)
