The Tintic War was a short series of skirmishes occurring in February through March 1856 in Uintah County and Tooele County, Utah[1] It occurred after the conclusion of the Walker War. It was named after a subchief of the Ute and involved several clashes between Mormon settlers and Native Americans previously residing in the Tintic and Cedar Valleys.[2]
