- Stakes: Utah Stake (1851-1901), Alpine Stake (1901-1928), Lehi Stake (1928-)
- Cedar Valley Ward (1853): originally included the village of Cedar Fort and all of Cedar Valley. While Fairfield Branch/Ward existed (1860s-1961), this ward only included the northern part of the valley (the exact southern boundary is uncertain).
