BTW, these were Paiutes, not Utes, who mostly lived farther east.

The Paiutes were generally called Diggers and were never considered a serious threat by a well-armed party such as the Fancher train.

I said as much in my post #1085.

I can’t believe that there are Mormons alive that still think John D. Lee massacred 120 people with the help of one of the most forlorn tribes in America.

BTW, I am a descendant of John D. Lee. He didn’t do it alone. The idea is ludicrous.
