notes: When it is first organized in January 1851, the stake is called a "branch," but this is not our modern sense of branch. In the 1840s and 1850s, there was a second "general" meaning of branch to mean any local unit, including wards, stakes, and branches. This is why discussions of Ogden for the next year or two frequently use stake and branch interchangeably, even in the same paragraph. assertion #4024840 by bplewe on 2024-07-10: confidence 100%.
notes: Almanac says this stake was discontinued in 1970, then a new Weber stake was organized 2 days later; CDOL says it was continuous assertion #3202794 by mpimport on 2019-01-21: confidence 100%.
notes: From 1869 to 1877, Apostle F.D. Richards presided here (for a year "behind" President Lorin Farr, then on his own), but other than that, the stake organization, especially the high council, appears to have continued to function. So we are stilling calling it a "stake," not a "stake-like" apostolate as in places like Orson Hyde's Sanpete County. assertion #4024847 by bplewe on 2024-07-10: confidence 100%.
