  • A History of Beaver County, Utah Centennial County History Series
    A HISTORY OF 'Beaver County Martha Sonntag Bradley UTAH CENTENNIAL COUNTY HISTORY SERIES A HISTORY OF 'Beaver County Martha Sonntag Bradley The settlement of Beaver County began in February 1856 when fifteen families from Parowan moved by wagon thirty miles north to Beaver Valley. The county was created by the Utah legislature on 31 January 1856, a week before the Parowan group set out to make their new home. However, centuries before, prehistoric peoples lived in the area, obtaining obsidian for arrow and spear points from the Mineral Mountains. Later, the area became home to Paiute Indians. Franciscan Friars Dominguez and Escalante passed through the area in October 1776. The Mormon settlement of Beaver devel­ oped at the foot of the Tushar Mountains. In 1859 the community of Minersville was es­ tablished, and residents farmed, raised live­ stock, and mined the lead deposits there. In the last quarter of the nineteenth century the Mineral Mountains and other locations in the county saw extensive mining develop­ ment, particularly in the towns of Frisco and Newhouse. Mining activities were given a boost with the completion of the Utah South­ ern Railroad to Milford in 1880. The birth­ place of both famous western outlaw Butch Cassidy and inventor of television Philo T. Farnsworth, Beaver County is rich in history, historic buildings, and mineral treasures.

    St. George Tabernacle, photograph courtesy Intellectual Reserve. Landon: The History of the St. George Tabernacle 125 “A Shrine to the Whole Church”: The History of the St. George Tabernacle Michael N. Landon At least as early as 1862, Brigham Young directed Latter-day Saint lead- ers in St. George to construct a tabernacle, a building designed not only for church services, but which also would serve as a social and cultural center for the entire community. In a letter to Mormon Apostle Erastus Snow, Brigham Young clearly noted that the tabernacle would represent more than a place of worship: As I have already informed you, I wish you and the brethren to build, as speedily as possible, a good substantial, commodious, well finished meeting house, one large enough to comfortably seat at least 2000 persons and that will be not only useful but also an ornament to your city and a credit to your energy and enterprise. I hereby place at your disposal, expressly to aid in building the aforesaid meeting-house, the labor, molasses, vegetable and grain tithing of Cedar City and of all places and persons south of that city. I hope you will begin the building at the earliest practicable date; and be able with the aid herein given to speedily prosecute the work to completion.1 Brigham Young’s efforts to encourage Latter-day Saints to settle in St. George, indeed in all of southern Utah, had met with mixed results. Even George A. Smith, his longtime friend and counselor in the First Presidency, once described the area as “the most wretched, barren, God-forsaken country in the world.”2 In his letter to Snow, Brigham Young implied that a substantial meeting place would give the St.

  • Quincy—A City of Refuge
    Susan Easton Black: Quincy–A City of Refuge 83 Quincy—A City of Refuge Susan Easton Black Early Quincy residents compassionately cared for Mormon exiles from Missouri, as one would care for an enduring friend.1 Residents expressed indignation at the Missouri governor’s order proclaiming, “The Mormons must be treated as enemies, and must be exterminated or driven from the State.”2 Citizens of Quincy disregarded religious differences and embraced downcast Mormons crossing the Mississippi River. The solicitous reception by Quincyans during the winter of 1838–39 is unparalleled in the annals of Mormonism and has never been forgotten. It has become a legacy that epit- omizes all that is good in people. The story of this legacy begins just as Mormon founder Joseph Smith was concluding that the Patriarch Abraham and the ancients would “not have whereof to boast over us [meaning his followers] in the day of judg- ment” and that the Latter-day Saints would “hold an even weight in the bal- ance with them.”3 At this season of lamentation, the citizens of Quincy reached out to heal wounds, redress wrongs, and assist the sorrowful. Quincyans offered hearth and home, sustenance, and their possessions to provide much-needed relief to the Mormon exiles. Quincy historian Phil Germann recalled the generosity on a recent WGEM News broadcast. He remarked, “It was [one of] the greatest human- itarian gestures in the United States. Quincy in the 1830s was not pre- pared to welcome strangers. Travel was difficult and health precarious.” He viewed the generosity of the forebears of his city as “one of .

  • Biografía Pdte. Hinckley
    LA IGLESIA DE JESUCRISTO DE LOS SANTOS DE LOS ÚLTIMOS DÍAS BIOGRAFÍA PRESIDENTE GORDON BITNER HINCKLEY PREFACIO A nadie que conozca al presidente Gordon B. Hinckley habrá de extrañarle saber que él era la última persona en querer que se publicara esta obra. Por varios años se opuso a la insistencia de muchos compañeros y familiares y rechazó a varios editores que trataron de persuadirlo a que permitiera la publicación de la historia de su vida. Y aunque finalmente transigió y consintió en colaborar con este proyecto, sin duda que preferiría que su historia No se contara. Su reticencia se debe a varias razones. Una de ellas es que No le agrada la notoriedad y No cree realmente que alguien tenga necesidad de saber lo que él ha logrado durante las seis décadas de servicio a la Iglesia y a la comunidad. Otra razón es que el hecho de ser descrito en una reseña literaria como algo más de lo que él se considera a sí mismo ha sido muy poco atractivo y un tanto riguroso. "Nadie puede transformar quince centavos en un dólar", me ha dicho más de una vez. Nunca habré de olvidarme de la reunión que tuve con él después de que leyera las tres primeras partes del manuscrito. Al cabo de una pausa algo incómoda, durante la cual parecía estar buscando la manera adecuada para rebatirme con delicadeza, comenzó a decir: "Estoy hastiado, muy hastiado de leer acerca de Gordon Hinckley. Es demasiado lo que este manuscrito contiene acerca de Gordon Hinckley". Tratando de buscar una respuesta, pensé en decirle: "¿Y a quién cree que debiera referirme en su biografía?", pero No encontré palabras lo suficientemente respetuosas para verbalizar mi pensamiento y me quedé callada.
