Robert's Range

William Fotheringham was one of the early pioneers of Lehi. He stayed here until Brigham Young called him to settle Beaver. Lehi men were callled to settle much of the settlements of Utah and Idaho. He wrote this about coming to "Dry Creek"

I learned from Brother Pugmire that a few families were going down to Dry Creek 30 miles south of Salt Lake City in Utah Valley to make a settlement. I concluded to go there a take up a farm. When we arrived, there were only six families camped on the ground. I was flag man in getting the land surveyed that is now known as Lehi. My father and self put up a little hay which was growing on the margin of the Utah lake and also built a cabin. We secured 40 acres of farm land and 20 acres of meadows. This land was an average of any land in the survey.
