NIMRAH. A Jaredite, the son of Akish. Out of jealousy Akish had starved to death one of his sons, a brother of Nimrah, and the latter being angry with his father, gathered a small number of men and fled to the exiled king, Omer, who had established himself on the Atlantic Coast, probably in the region we call New England. What afterwards became of Nimrah we are not told. (Ether, 9:8,9.)
