Settlements SpreadSettlements Spread After 1857, most Mormon settlements were far from Salt Lake City with
many being created outside of Utah. There were even settlements in Mexico and Canada.
Vernal (1877) was created after the Ute Reservation was organized, and settlers were advised by the local Ute tribe to build a fort for protection from bands of Ute.
Moab (1878) was originally a river crossing on the Old Spanish Trail. Missionaries from SLC built a trading post there that grew into the current town.
Bluff (1880) was originally settled as a farming town, but floods forced the settlers to give up and try ranching.
Iosepa (1889) was a community of Hawaiian and other Polynesian converts to Mormonism who built a town in the desert south of the GSL.

Religions and OutlawsReligions and Outlaws The other religious community that had come to Utah spread throughout the
Utah Territory, with many building schools, hospitals, and churches to serve their people.
New religious groups also came to Utah during this time, including Baptists, Evangelical Lutherans, and Methodists.
Reverend Scanlan traveled across Utah Territory to minister to the many Catholics who lived here. His leadership helped build the Cathedral of the Madeleine in SLC.
The riches from the mines, railroad, and other businesses also encouraged some people to take up a life of crime.
The most famous outlaw from Utah was Robert Leroy Parker (Butch Cassidy). His Wild Bunch gang committed many robberies.
Outlaws often became famous during a time before radio and television. Adding to the Wild Bunch legend was the mysterious end of Butch Cassidy and Sundance.

Technology ChangesTechnology Changes Technology was changing rapidly in the late 1800s. Many new
inventions used electricity to change peoples lives. Before this time, people typically did not go out after dark. The
electric light bulb changed that, although it took many years to be introduced to average people’s home.
Mines were one of the first industries to convert to electricity since it was safer than open flames.
As time passed, electric streetcars and trains became a part of traffic in major Utah towns.
Telephones were also invented and began to be used at this time in businesses. It wouldn’t be until the 1930s that this technology became common in average family homes.

More Mining and MogulsMore Mining and Moguls In the 1870s, more minerals were discovered in Utah, leading to new
mines opening & new fortunes being made. The Tintic Mining District produced gold, silver, copper, lead, and
zinc in the area around Eureka, Utah today. Some of Utah’s first millionaires were the Silver Kings and Queen,
who made their fortunes from mining Thomas Kearns & David Keith leased a mine in Park City which
contained a rich lode of silver. Kearns later built a large mansion in SLC, which is now the governor’s home, was elected to the U.S. Senate, and bought The Salt Lake Tribune.\
Susanna Bransford Emery Holmes was married to a partner of Kearns. She inherited $100 million dollars and became known as the Silver Queen, traveled the world, and was a patron of music and art SLC.

Indian Farms, Reservations; Buffalo SoldiersIndian Farms, Reservations; Buffalo Soldiers As settlers spread across Utah, many Native Americans were forced to
move to reservations or Indian farms. Goshute and Navajo reservations were created at this time.
Utahns had tried to convince Indians to live on Indian farms, where they would be taught farming and pioneer culture. But many did not want to give up their language and culture.
Reservations were created by ‘treaties’ between Indians and the federal government. The Indians had no choice about going to the reservations, and many were forced there.
Regiments of black soldiers were sent to Fort Douglas in the 1880s. They had been sent to guard the train & stagecoach, open & clear roads, and settle land disputes among settlers & Indians.
They were nicknamed buffalo soldiers by the Indians, who thought their hair was like the fur of buffalo.
