Disclaimer

The project staff has made efforts to verify the facts regarding the properties and people noted in this work. However, not every statement of fact is verifiable and some discrepancies may have been included in this work, partly due to incorrect earlier histories, oral traditions, conjecture, and in some very rare cases, tall tales (we would have included more if we had them). The principal compilers and photographers for this project were: Tiana Larsen (2009) and Craig J. Harvey (2009 & 2011).

If you find errors in this work that can be corrected with verifiable facts and information, PLEASE contact the project staff at the City of St. George, Community Development Department and provide us with the information. The correct information will be used for future publications. Verifiable facts and information include, but not limited to: Personal journals from the individuals noted in this work or their immediate children, Photographs with dates and/or notes, and Legal Documents (i.e. deeds, wills, birth or marriage or death certificates, etc.).

Much of the information contained in this work came from the Washington County Historical Society website at the following web address: http://wchsutah.org and from the bronze plaques located at the historic sites.
