Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and ot r research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between the University of California and Helen R.

  • History of La Sal, Utah Area As Given by Norma P
    Eastern Utah Human History Library HISTORY OF LA SAL, UTAH AREA AS GIVEN BY NORMA P. BLANKENAGEL Oral Transcript During a recording session on May 21, 1 997, Lula Delong recorded the following history of the La Sal, Utah area, as presented by Norma Blankenagle. I am from La Sal, Utah which is 30 miles south of Moab, and I live nearby at Rattlesnake Ranch. We have lived at Rattlesnake Ranch since 1952. 1 wanted especially to give a little history on the La Sal area. The Name La Sal - Father Escalante’s trail runs past the La Sal Mountains as does the Old Spanish Trail, which was the longest, toughest, pack mule route in the history of the whole United States. So it has a lot of interesting history. We believe they were talking about the snow that looked like salt on top of the mountains. This is how La Sal got its name. La Sal is French for salt. It’s also Spanish. for salt, so whether it was Spanish conquistadors or the French trappers came in or who ever it was, they named it salt, which is La Sal. The Coming of the Mormon Church and the Elk Mountain Mission - Early in 1854, the Mormon Church sent a group of men to the Moab area, and they were called the Elk Mountain Mission. They thought the La Sals were the Elk Mountains and this is why it (the fort) is called the Elk Mountain Mission. The Elks are much further south towards Blanding. This group was lead by Alfred Billings, and I think there were about thirteen men in it.
