  • This is the section house at Stirling. It was photographed in June 1898, a full year before Mormon settlers arrived. When Theodore Brandley, the first Bishop and leader of the Stirling settlement, arrived here he wrote this in his journal, “Here we were strangers in a new & strange land which was so different from our Mountain Home. A Level Prairie as far as the eye could reach the nearest town being Lethbridge 20 miles to the North & Cardston a Mormon settlement 60 Miles to the west. The ground was covered with grass every where & I felt quite at home.” — Photo from the Alberta Railway and Irrigation Company papers. — #mormonhistory #albertahistory #stirling #canadasmormontrail #stirlinghistory

  • I've been working through Lowry Nelson's "The Mormon Village." It provides a snapshot of what Cardston, Orton and Stirling were like in 1930. It is an incredible window into the past. It also contrasts that with Utah communities of Ephraim, Escalante and American Fork.
