Biographical History

Lyman Wight (1796-1858) was disaffected from the LDS Church after the death of Joseph Smith. He and others moved to Texas, forming their own colony. Growing tensions between the north and south made Wight decide to move his colony back into the northern part of the United States, but he died as the journey began in March 1858. He was taken back to the former settlement and buried. Most of the members of the colony ended up joining the Re-organized LDS Church in Missouri.
