    A HISTORY OF Sevier County iitij , w jEEEfc -.; IK blMjUH K 1 114 it i; ;:•.... M. Guy Bishop UTAH CENTENNIAL COUNTY HISTORY SERIES A HISTORY OF Sevier County M. Guy Bishop Sevier County was first settled by Mormon pioneers in the mid-1850s, as farming settle­ ments were established along the Sevier River Valley to accommodate the increasing num­ bers of immigrants to Utah. The fledgling settlements were soon abandoned, however, in the mid-1860s as a result of the Black Hawk Indian War, in which many county residents lost their lives. Native Americans had lived in the area for thousands of years and fought aggressively to keep this harsh but rich land as white settlement increasingly disrupted their traditional ways of life. After peace was reestablished, white settle­ ment efforts were renewed and expanded, with many towns growing throughout the county, especially in the Sevier River Valley. Richfield was soon established as the county seat and became a major commercial center for central Utah, as it remains to the present day. Agricultural activities of farming and livestock raising have been supplemented by some manufacturing and industrial growth through the decades, with recreational land use and tourism becoming increasingly im­ portant economically. Sevier County, with its central location and growing population, remains a vital part of Utah's economic, trans­ portation, and communication networks.
