Much of the history of Thomas and his family is succinctly related in the following "tribute" to his wife:
"Karen Happoch Holladay was born May 4, 1830, at [Mosco,] Marion county, Alabama, the daughter of John Holladay and Catherine B. Higgins. When she was fourteen years of age she was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She came on the westward trek with her parents, brothers and sisters being then in her seventeenth year. It is claimed that she rode most of the way on horseback. While the Mississippi company was stationed at Fort Pueblo, Karen became acquainted with Thomas Bingham, a private in Company B of the Mormon Battalion. Two years after her arrival in Utah she was married to him on September 6, 1849, and soon after the young couple moved to Ogden, where they established their first home. In March 1851, they were called to go with a company of Saints to help establish the settlement of San Bernardino, California where they remained until the spring of 1855, returning to their former home in Ogden. In the spring of 1856 her husband was called on a mission to the Salmon River Indians where he served two years and during this time she was left with the responsibility of caring for their three children. Her family was with those who went south during the Johnston army episode. In the spring of 1862 the Bingham family helped to establish Huntsville in Ogden Canyon and, in the fall of 1877, moved to Ashley Valley, locating first on the Green River; then, in the spring of 1878, they moved to Dry Fork (Mountain Dell), north of Vernal, where they resided for several years. In the fall of 1884 they moved to Mill Ward now Maeser Ward. Her husband died December 31, 1889. Through the years she remained a faithful Latter-day Saint and for many years was a Relief Society teacher. She was the mother of ten children all of whom lived in Ashley Valley the greater part of their lives. After the death of her husband she made her home with her daughters, Mary Hall Stringham and Phoebe C. Hyslop. She passed away at the home of the latter January 18, 1915."

On 16 July 1846, with brother Erastus and brother-in-law Elijah N. Freeman, Thomas enlisted in the Mormon Battalion. He traveled with the battalion some distance beyond Santa Fe, New Mexico, that year, but was sent to Pueblo, Colorado, with the second sick detachment, under command of Lieutenant W. W. Willis. The following spring, while en route to Fort Laramie, Captain Brown sent thirteen men on ahead, including Thomas, in pursuit of thieves and the horses they had stolen at Pueblo. This advance party, having recovered all but one of the stolen horses, joined with the Brigham Young Company on the banks of the Green River. Thus was Thomas among the first saints, numbering 159 in all, to reach Salt Lake, 29 July 1847. With his brothers, Erastus and Sanford, Thomas tended Bingham livestock at the mouth of Bingham Canyon. In 1850, he took his new wife to Ogden, where he had his first child. In late Summer, 1851, Thomas answered the call to go with Apostle Charles C. Rich and Amasa Lyman to establish, at Rancho de San Bernardino, a "stronghold for the gathering of the Saints in California." He stayed in San Bernardino with his family until 1855. There, with Justus Morse and a Mr. Joyce, he built the Salamander sawmill on Huston Creek, but subsequently sold his interest in this operation to Bishop Crosby. Thomas returned to Ogden with his family in May 1855. In March 1856, he answered a call to serve in the ill-fated Salmon River Mission (Fort Lemhi, Idaho). There he labored among the "Lamanites" until 1858. From the Journal of Jacob Miller, we learn that the missionaries returned to their homes in Utah each winter, and that Thomas served as "Acting President" of the mission from time to time. In 1858, with the approach of Johnston's Army, Thomas relocated his family to Payson, Utah. In 1859, President Young gave him permission to seek gold in California, on condition that he use the proceeds for the benefit of the Church. He had no more success in this venture than his brothers Erastus and Willard had a decade before. Returning to Northern Utah, Thomas helped settle, perhaps as early as 1861, but certainly by 1862, the village of Huntsville, where he served as counselor to Bishops Jefferson Hunt and Francis A. Hammond. He operated a lumber mill in or about Huntsville, in partnership with his brother Willard, until 1877, when he relocated with his family to Ashley Valley. Meanwhile, in 1868, he entered into a contract with his brother-in-law, Lorin Farr, to grade two miles of road for the transcontinental railroad.

Thomas, as first presiding elder of Ashley Valley, established a branch of the Church there under direction of the Wasatch Stake. Within two years, there were in the valley three distinct settlements: Ashely Center (Vernal), Mountain Dell on Dry Creek, and Incline (Jensen) on the Green River. The territorial legislature created Uintah County in 1880. The first meeting of the County Court was held on 3 March 1880, with Thomas Bingham as selectman. At the first election, in August 1881, Thomas was elected Probate Judge, an office he held for five years. The following month, September 1881, he was ordained bishop of Mountain Dell. In 1884, the family removed to Mill Ward (Maeser), where Thomas died. [Richard Bingham]
