The name “Benmore” is an amalgamation Bennion and Skidmore, to families from northern Cache Valley Utah who settled the area together in the 1890’s.
See reference (and photos) in an article published in the Deseret News early 2000s.
My grandparents, Justin Albert Skidmore and his wife Agnes Emoret Stoddard Skidmore, and their family were one of the families. My grandmother died there from childbirth complications in April 1918. My father was born there in 1912.
Both Justin and Emoret are buried in Richmond Utah. Big Skid (talk) 22:13, 5 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
