Called to Serve- Plymouth Ward
For many years Plymouth was a part of the Portage Ward, with Harmon Pierson serving as Presiding Elder without counselors. In 1884 the Plymouth Ward was organized with Myron J. Richards as bishop. The ward included what is now Riverside, Fielding and Plymouth. Thomas Archibald was made bishop of Plymouth Ward. When the John W. Hess family and others came from Davis County they settled north of the present site of Fielding, and on June 18, 1891 the East Plymouth Ward was taken from the Plymouth Ward, with Myron J. Richard as bishop in the new ward.
