The district lies at the base of the city's foothills to the east, with the city of West Bountiful and the Great Salt Lake to the west. The boundary of the rectangular district is equivalent to the original Bountiful town site survey known as Plat A, approximately three-quarters of the mile square. The district is primarily residential with commercial development along Main Street, and on the western and southern edges. The district includes 823 primary resources, of which 523 (63 percent) contribute to its historic character. Of the 300 (37 percent) non-contributing resources, 101 are altered historic buildings, and 196 are out of period (See summary statistics at the end of Section 7). The district also includes 372 i outbuildings, primarily garages, of which 265 (71 percent) are contributing and 107 (29 percent) are non- contributing. The district also includes two non-contributing objects, one contributing site, and one non- contributing site. Eighty-eight percent of contributing buildings are single-family dwellings. Multiple-family housing accounts for four percent of contributing buildings. The historic housing stock ranges from adobe dwellings built in the mid-1850s to ranch/rambler houses built in the mid-1950s. Seven percent of contributing buildings are commercial or institutional. Most of the commercial buildings are located on Main Street with some found on 500 South and the 200 West corridor. The institutional buildings are scattered throughout the district. Two buildings, the Bountiful Tabernacle [Photograph 10] and the Emily Green House [Photographs 30 & 31], were previously listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Survey Methods and Eligibility Requirements Classification of properties as contributing or non-contributing was based on the results of a Reconnaissance Level Survey of Bountiful's historic Plat A city center conducted in the spring and summer of 2004. The boundaries of the historic district were drawn to include the highest concentration of historic resources within Plat A. Each resource was evaluated for eligibility using the following guidelines and designations established by the Utah State Historic Preservation Office: A ~ Eligible/Significant: built within the historic period and retains integrity; excellent example of style or type; unaltered or only minor alterations or additions; individually eligible of National Register for architectural significance; also, buildings of known historical significance. B ~ Eligible: built within the historic period and retains integrity; good example of type or style, but not as well-preserved or well-executed as "A" buildings; more substantial alterations or additions than "A"; eligible for National Register as part of a potential historic district or primarily for historical, rather than architectural reasons. C -- Ineligible: built during the historic period but has had major alterations or additions; no longer retains integrity, [may still have important local significance]. D ~ Out-of-period: constructed outside the historic period. 1 1 Standard Operating Procedures for Reconnaissance Level Surveys, Utah State Preservation Office (Revised October 1995), B.6. OMB No. 1024-0018, NFS Form United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Continuation Sheet Section No. 7 Page 2 Bountiful, Bountiful, Davis County, UT Evaluations were based primarily on age and integrity. Current condition (or upkeep), appearance, aesthetics, and quality of construction were not determining factors in evaluation. Though a building will sometimes appear newer than it actually is because of intrusive alterations and additions, the surveyor attempted to discern the oldest portion of the building by looking for signs of greater age such as composition, massing, fenestration, foundation materials, chimneys and landscaping. Boundary Description and Development Patterns The boundaries of the district encompass the original Bountiful town plat, which is bounded by 200 West, 400 North, 400 East and 500 South. The district boundary includes properties on both sides of the boundary streets. Bountiful was the second area settled by member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS or Mormon Church) after they founded Salt Lake City in 1847. By the early 1850s, there was a community of family farmsteads scattered throughout the area currently known as Bountiful, Centerville and Woods Cross. On May 1, 1854, the town was laid out within the boundaries of the three-quarter mile square fort site. The fortified town site, known as Plat A, was designed to not

  • Non-Mormon Presence in 1880S Utah
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Earth and Mineral Sciences THE WASP IN THE BEEHIVE: NON-MORMON PRESENCE IN 1880S UTAH A Thesis in Geography by Samuel A. Smith c 2008 Samuel A. Smith Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science August 2008 The thesis of Samuel A. Smith was read and approved1 by the following: Deryck W. Holdsworth Professor of Geography Thesis Adviser Roger Downs Professor of Geography Karl Zimmerer Professor of Geography Head of the Department of Geography 1. Signatures on file in the Graduate School. iii Abstract Recent studies have reconsidered the Mormon Culture Region in light of its 1880{1920 transition to American political and economic norms. While these studies emphasize conflicts between the Mormon establishment and the non-Mormon federal government, Mormon/non-Mormon relations within Utah have received little direct attention. Based on religious affiliations recorded in the 1880 federal census of Utah Territory, this study uses historical GIS to visualize the composition of Utah's \Mormon" and \non-Mormon" towns. The results highlight the extensive presence of religious minorities in Utah's settlements. Case studies of farm villages, mining camps, and urban neighborhoods probe the social and economic contexts of non-Mormon presence in Utah. These studies, based on Sanborn maps and city directories, explore the geographical mosaic of Mormon and non-Mormon residence and business activity. These variegated patterns, often absent from historical accounts of the region, enable localized analyses of the ensuing decades of cultural conflict, transformation and assimilation. Keywords: Mormons, non-Mormons, Mormon Culture Region, Utah, 1880 Cen- sus, historical demography.

ERICKSON Former Research Director of the LCB In the beginning, the region now occupied by the State of Nevada was held by Data Historical the Goshute, Mojave, Paiute, Shoshone and Washoe Indians and claimed by the Spanish Empire until the early 1800s. Th e northern extent of the Spanish claim was defi ned as the 42nd parallel in the Adams-Onis Treaty of 1819 between the United States and Spain. Th is north latitude line serves currently as Nevada’s northern boundary with Oregon and Idaho. Spanish explorations into this region have never been documented clearly enough to establish any European party constituting the earliest expedition into Nevada. If in fact there was some penetration, it must have been by the Spanish in the southernmost portion of our state, possibly as early as 1776. In 1821 Mexico won its war of independence from Spain and gained control over all the former Spanish territory in the area of what is now our “South-West.” Spain had done nothing to occupy or control what is now Nevada, a vast region virtually “terra incognita,” having no permanent non-Indian population and considered barren, arid and inhospitable. Quite understandably, the Spanish concentrated on settlements and nominal control in the more accessible and better-known coastal regions of the Californias and New Mexico.

  • Teachers' Guide
    BECOMING UTAH: A PEOPLES’ JOURNEY A Guide for Educators with Supplemental Resources Emma Moss | Cassandra Clark | Wendy Rex-Atzet Utah Division of State History | December 2020 > history.utah.gov OVERVIEW: On January 4, 1896, after a forty-eight-year struggle, Utah became the 45th state to enter the Union. Utah’s path to statehood was complicated and often controversial, which makes its journey an important American story. Utah’s leaders applied for statehood seven times—and failed six times—over five decades. To achieve the political status of statehood, Utahns had to confront weighty cultural, political, and social issues and overcome differences among the state’s diverse communities. While statehood marks an important moment, it is Utah’s people who have defined this place. Long before 1896, diverse peoples shaped what the state became by working to build its towns, industries, economies, and communities. Not all Utahns were represented politically before, or after, 1896. However, Utah’s people worked toward equality and legal representation. Utah’s journey to statehood and beyond shows how many groups contributed to building Utah, and also how they raised their voices to secure political, legal, religious, social, and cultural rights. CONNECTIONS TO STATE STANDARDS: 4th Grade Social Studies Standards Standard 2 - Objective 2 - Describe ways that Utah has changed over time. a. Identify key events and trends in Utah history and their significance (e.g. American Indian settlement, European exploration, Mormon settlement, westward expansion, American Indian relocation, statehood, development of industry, World War I and II). b. Compare the experiences faced by today’s immigrants with those faced by immigrants in Utah’s history.
