Description Portrait of James F. Randlett (1832 - 1915). His name was given to the settlement after it was previously called Leland for a short period of time. Randlett is in Uintah County, Utah, near the Uintah River, ten miles southeast of Fort Duchesne, Utah. The area was first settled by whites in 1892 as a school site for Ute children. It was abandoned, and resettled in 1905. Colonel James Randlett was the local Indian agent and commanding officer at nearby Fort Duchesne until 1896. Indians and whites both considered him to be a good officer who tried to help the Indians.
