![]() Zeniff left Zarahemla (Montrose, Iowa) about 200-187 BC to possess the land of first inheritance near Chattanooga Tennessee. ![]() Mosiah meets the people of Zarahemla and translated Coriantumr’s stone. They lived along the Mississippi river (the land of Zarahemla) until Mosiah arrived from the land of Nephi. Shortly after Lehi left Jerusalem for the new World, in about 586 BC the Mulekites (Descendants of King Zedekiah) came from Jerusalem by way of the Atlantic Ocean and ascended the lower and upper Mississippi Rivers until they stopped at the Des Moines river rapids near Nauvoo. Eventually Mosiah made his way to the city of Zarahemla at Montrose Iowa (D&C 125:3), where the Mulekites already lived. Mosiah was told by the Lord to leave Tennessee (about 323 BC) and he traveled the Tennessee River west then north to the Ohio River then traveling north on the Mississippi River, to the land of Zarahemla (modern Illinois, Iowa, Missouri). Later, after Lehi dies, Nephi escaped north possibly using the Chattahoochee River to Unicoi Gap, GA, and then traveling on the Hiawasee River which connects to the Tennessee River then, settling near Chattanooga, Tennessee which area became the land of Nephi and also called the Land Lehi-Nephi. ![]() We believe Lehi landed in Florida near Tallahassee about 589 BC.
