  • 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.

  • Theoretical Newhouse Lineage
    A Theoretical Newhouse Family Descendancy Tree Generation No. 1 1. ANTON1 NEUHAUS was born 1660 in Germany, possibly the Kingdom of Prussia, and died Bef. 24 Aug 1756 in Trappe, Providence Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. Notes for ANTON NEUHAUS: Whereas this report recognizes the difficulty in obtaining complete genealogical accuracy, the data herein does represent the best information we currently have available. Much of the information, however, does come from secondary sources and needs to be verified. We do welcome and encourage updates and corrections. And, please keep in mind, all this information is subject to change, correction and embellishment. We will be updating this report as more information becomes available. The first couple generations of this family tree are theoretical. Records show that the individuals listed actually existed, but the relationships between them are based on circumstantial evidence. While the relationships described herein are still ripe for discussion and are not absolutely proven, they appear to be reasonable and plausible based upon known evidence. And parts of this argument now have stronger substantiation in DNA testing done on modern day Newhouse cousins. For starters, the first premise of this tree is that an Anthon Neuhaus (1660-1756) and John Newhouse (?-1756), who both lived around Trappe, Pennsylvania, in the early 1700s, were most likely father and son. It seems certain at least that they knew each other, and were likely relatives. Possibly father-son or uncle-nephew, possibly brothers, or maybe cousins. And since it's clear that records show both men died in August 1756 in the same locality, it reasons that they may even have been the same person who was identified differently by two culturally different sources.

Introduction for Teachers Women & Spirit: Catholic Sisters in America is an American history story and a womenʼs history story. This teachers guide and the traveling exhibit it is based on present the innovative women whose passion for justice helped shape our nationʼs social and cultural landscape. Since first arriving in America nearly 300 years ago, sisters established schools, colleges, hospitals, orphanages, homeless shelters, and many other enduring social institutions that addressed critical social needs. As nurses, teachers, and social workers, sisters entered professional ranks decades earlier than most other women. Their work provided blueprints for the nationʼs educational and healthcare systems that continue to serve millions of Americans from all walks of life. Religious commitment is integral to the story of Catholic sisters, and their spiritual life calls them to respond to those who are in need. Women & Spirit focuses on sistersʼ achievements in working with communities they have served. The exhibit brings to light hundreds of unsung heroes and documents a vital and significant perspective on American history.
