In the [[Book of Ether]], Ablom is the place where [[Omer]] fled with his household. Omer, the ruler of the [[Jaredites]] had been warned by the Lord in a dream to flee the land. 

: And the Lord warned Omer in a dream that he should depart out of the land; wherefore Omer departed out of the land with his family, and traveled many days, and came over and passed by the hill of Shim, and came over by the place where the Nephites were destroyed, and from thence eastward, and came to a place which was called Ablom, by the seashore, and there he pitched his tent, and also his sons and his daughters, and all his household, save it were Jared and his family.
